Hi all.
I would trying to use MapwindowGIS to manage my maps and i would try to manage some personally funcion (activity) from the extern application.
I tried to following (but at list doesn't work):
developer a new plugin and create a com server in it
In this way i cannot share mapwindow pointer between plugin and com class server
is anyone knowing a different approach to solve my needed?
Any hint?
thanks a lot.

I haven't seen a MW plug-in before with a COM server in it.
But if you can create a form with your COM object and you can get that to work it also should work in a plug-in.
What error are you getting?
In what language are you developing?
For C# and VS2008 a template plug-in is available: TemplatePluginVS2008/

Thanks Paul.
Maybe i explain better.
1) I create a plugin. Loaded correctly
2) Added a Com Class. Loaded Correctly
3) i would in my com class/method to use the mapwindow pointer to access project loading, shapefile creation and other stuff
In the 3th point the message i have is that the pointer (to mapwindow) is null
I think that the reson is that com server and plugin instance have differet scope also if i use a module class to share my pointer.
I develop using VB2008 and my app i developer in C++ builder.
Regard's

If you look at the sample plug-in you can see the MapWindow pointer is passed through other classes/form when creating them.
Can't you pass the pointer to your com class on creation in stead of using a global var?
BTW it is an interesting combination VB.NET and C++ ;)
