AutoCAD Inventor :: Unable To Get Addin To Load
Aug 25, 2011I have having difficulty getting any addins to load at the moment and am totally stumped as to what the problem is. I have even created a very simple addin from the (C#) template, compiled and registered it and it still will not load up. I get the addin to appear in the Inventor Add-ins dialog ok but it will not load for some reason. I have tried generating various .Net versions 2.0, 3.0 & 3.5 all produce the same result. I have also tried to debug the add-in by getting Visual Studio to launch Inventor but it does not even appear to be loading the add-in. I have dug out some work I did months ago and tried that but it does not work either. Is there a log in Inventor?
I am using C# in Visual Studio 2008 Pro & Inventor 2011.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Example Of Embedding IronPython Into A C# Addin
Dec 13, 2012Below is a link to a github repo that has a code example showing how to embed an IronPython engine inside a C# addin. It is the same as the "Simple AddIn" that comes with the SDK, only with the logic part of the addin factored out into IronPython. I could never find anything on using IronPython with Inventor so I'm posting this for any others that might be interested.
The main reason for doing this is to speed up development time. Edits related to the python code do not require the cycle of shutting down Inventor, compiling, restarting etc. More detail is in the readme. URL....

Dec 17, 2013I would like to make an Inventor AddIn with commands (functions) that can be called from other standalone applications. I have tried to create a COM interface for my AddIn, and that works with rather small effort, but I think I have heard that it should be possible to do this without the COM interface. I would like to avoid COM if possible. if I need to do anything special in the AddIn to make the function visible and how I on client side calls the function.

Feb 13, 2013I have an addin which displays a form, then when I click a button operations are launched. The form is no modal, so I display it, select objects, apply, select objects, apply,... then close the form with another button (form.close).
All functions, but only on the first opened file : I open the file, use the addin, close the form. I open another file, the addin is always loaded, but when I click on the icon to display the form nothing happens... I have to unload the addin and reload it.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Addin Stopped Loading
Apr 13, 2012Windows 7 64bit
Inventor 2010
Visual Studio Professional 2010
I have an Addin with several pieces of functionality that I have been working on for over a year now and have had no problems with it loading. Yesterday I was working on a bug in a function and when I set a break point it was not breaking in the correct location. Possably some miss match between the source and .pdb files. I tried a clean build but still could not get the break point to be correctly aligned with my source code.
I tried to unregister and re-register the Addin with regasm but no luck. I then decided to search the registry for the name of my Addin and was supprized to find thousnads of registry entries. I then decided to clean my registry of all occurances of the Addin name. After removing all occurances of my Addin from the registry my Addin would not load.
I tried putting a message box in the first line of the Activate sub but it never executes. I made the assumption that it was a problem with the registry and changed the GUID value. When I did a rebuild I got the following error:
Error 1 The "UnregisterAssembly" task failed unexpectedly.
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80030002): could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80030002 (STG_E_FILENOTFOUND))

I ran the build again and did not get the error.This Addin is loaded on every CAD workstation in the company using an install program written with the Inno Setup Compiler. I installed the Addin using the installer and the Addin still will not load on my machine.
What is the best approch to debugging an Addin that will not load?When is it necessary to re-register your Addin using regasm?Is it possable that this problem is being caused a problem with the registry?I have read a number of posts regarding problems with Addin's not loading but have not found anything simmilar to this.

Sep 9, 2013Using Inventor 2014 and Vault Basic 2014. It was working this morning but now when Invnetor is opened it automatically logs into Vault and says it is successful but the open from vault icon is greyed out. Similarly when opening a drawing from the vault it used to automatically run and open inventor but now seems to lack the connection. Even when manually opening a drawing that is in the vault by downloading it from the browser and then opening in inventor there is no Vault tab on the browser and all Vault commands except "log out" are greyed out. I think it has something to do with the add-in as well as the Vault group.
View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: How To Prevent DLL Addin From Reverse-engineering
Sep 24, 2012We create a greate deal of DLL add ins for Inventor using Microsoft VB.NET. The code security is very important to us. I hear certain program such " Lutz Roeder's Reflector " can reverse engineer the DLL assemblies and get the actual code from it. This would cause concern when we deploy the DLL to various users.
So, is it true that DLL from VB.NET (or C# and C++) is so vulnerable from reverse engineering? if yes, what is any practice to add security to it?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Addin Loading Multiple Times
Dec 2, 2013I have an issue where an addin loads once the first time Inventor is opened. If the addin is unloaded and reloaded via the Addins dialog and no documents are open it loads once. If the addin is reloaded while a file is open is reloads twice.
I came to the conclusion it is loading multiple times because the it seems to go through the Activation method of the addin twice. When is the Activation method called during loading an addin?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Edit Registry To Set Save Location Automatically
Nov 20, 2012In my quest to remove any unnecessary clicks I want to be able to set the default location when you press Save, Save As, Demote or 'Save and replace component'.
Default it will show up a file save as dialogue starting from my workspace. Or my last saved location. I believe this is stored in the registry and hope to Intelligent adjust these registry value's using VBA.
When diving into the registry I believe I found the right keys here:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutodeskInventorRegistryVersion17.0SystemPreferencesFileDialog
Problem 1:
- if i change them manually I don't find a difference in Inventor (If I change other things in the registry, this has an effect)
Problem 2:
how do I set them automatic using VBA? I've got the strings sFileLocation & sFileName true the rest of my code. So I would need to do something like:
Dim oRegFileSave as Regisry entryset oRegFileSave as
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAutodeskInventorRegistryVersion17.0SystemPreferencesFileDialogLastFileSaveDialogoRegFileSave = sFileLocation & "/" & sFileName
For your information, these are the registry entry's I believe I need to adjust:
AutoCAD Inventor :: Running View 2013 Does Not Create Registry Key
Aug 17, 2012i am wanting to use the apprentice server in another program. The apprentice server is 'normally' found in the registry under this key:
ComputerHKEY_CLASSES_ROOTCLSIDC343ED84-A129-11d3-B799-0060B0F159EF
The problem is, that if you uninstall all things autodesk, and run a registry cleaner (or delete that key by hand), and then install only inventor view 2013 and run inventor view 2013, it will *not* create that key in the registry.
This makes it impossible to run the apprentice thru the COM mechanism, even your SDK samples will not work.
(i suspect (but havent proved), the bigger problem is on a brand new machine, install and run only inventor view 2013 , you still can't use the apprentice server.)
The 'workaround' is to install and run inventor view 2012. running inventor view 2012 will create the registry key. After that, running inventor view 2013 will happily update the key's value to the appropriate place.
(C:Program FilesAutodeskInventor View 2013BinRxApprenticeServer.dll)
so try this :
1) run regedit and delete the key and all its subkeys
ComputerHKEY_CLASSES_ROOTCLSIDC343ED84-A129-11d3-B799-0060B0F159EF
2) optionally install inventor view 2013 ('as administrator' or not doesnt matter).
2) run inventor view 2013 ('as administrator' or not doesnt matter). exit it
3) run regedit. the key is not there still. you won't be able to run any SDK samples or get an apprentice server using the following 'basic'
Set ApprenticeServer = New ApprenticeServerComponent
i'm on windows7, x64. (iv2013 is: build 126, Release: 2013 RTM)
is a bug in 'inventor view 2013', or is that intended for some strange reason?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Dynamically Add Buttons To Addin To Modify XML Entry
Oct 23, 2012I'd like to make it so that a user may add a button for my addin by only having to modify an xml entry.
None of the values (name, descrip, tooltip) are null, and reading from the xml is working properly. Each internal name is unique. Why this code would result in an error? The error message is attached.
If there's a known way to dynamically add buttons(in a loop), I'd be happy to use an established method as well.
Element[] QueryArray = query.ToArray();foreach (XElement item in QueryArray){string name = item.Attribute("Name").Value;string descrip = item.Attribute("Description").Value;string tooltip = item.Attribute("Tooltip").Value;tempButton = null;tempButton = oControlDefinitions.AddButtonDefinition(name, name, CommandTypesEnum.kEditMaskCmdType, m_AddinClientID, descrip, tooltip, Type.Missing, Type.Missing);oStandardsLinks.CommandControls.AddButton(tempButton);}

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Convert Working Addin To Dockable Window

I finnally got it to show up as a dockable window but when the user presses the "X" on the window it hides, how do you get it back or just let the addin know that the window/form has been closed so that when the user pressed the ribbon button that spawned it can just show it or create a new one?
