Application.Managed.Run

| Is there any way to use Application.Managed.Run to pass 2 arguments to a .Net Extension? At the moment we have it working passing one argument while the other is hard-coded in the .Net code. |

Hi All, not the best method but we have found an alternative. We have concatenated the two variables into 1. Passed that into the .Net Extension and then split it in .Net back to their individual variables. Not pretty but it works  |

Personally, I do not use the Run method to actually do anything apart from return an instance of the .net class to SLX, which I then access as a normal COM object.
The below is just written from my head, so may be full of typo's etc, but I hope you get the general idea... Obviously this may not useful for this solution but may be useful for future use.
In .net extension:
using System;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using Sage.SalesLogix.NetExtensions;
using Sage.SalesLogix.NetExtensions.SalesLogix;
using Sage.SalesLogix.NetExtensions.Licensing;
using Sage.SalesLogix.NetExtensions.Deployment;
using System.ComponentModel;
namespace SLXNetExtensionExample
{
[ComVisible(true), ProgId("SLXNetExtensionExample.SLXWrapper")]
public class SLXWrapper : Component, IRunnable
{
ISlxApplication _slxApp;
//Saleslogix .net extension methods
public void Initialize(ISlxApplication SlxApplication, ILicenseKeyManager LicenseKeyManager)
{
_slxApp = SlxApplication;
}
public object Run(object[] Args)
{
return this;
}
public Boolean DoSomething(String PassAs, Int32 ManyParameters, String AsYouLike)
{
//This is where I would actually "do some work"
return true;
}
}
Then in SLX script:
Public Sub CallNetExtension(v_sWhatever, v_iParameters, v_sYouNeed)
Dim extension
Dim guid
guid = Application.Managed.Create("SLXNetExtensionExample", "SLXNetExtensionExample.SLXWrapper")
Set extension = Application.Managed.Run(guid, Nothing)
'Do whatever
If extension.DoSomething(v_sWhatever, v_iParameters, v_sYouNeed) Then
'You get the idea
End If
Set extension = Nothing
Call Application.Managed.Destroy(guid)
End Sub |

You can also use globals from the application object.
vb
Dim oSLX as Sage.SalesLogix.NetExtensions.SalesLogix.ISlxApplication
and then
oSLX.BasicFunctions.GlobalInfoFor(GlobalName)
Much cleaner.

I pass an array as the argument.
Here is a sample:
sub Call_PostSaleControl
Dim SLXExt
SLXExt = Application.Managed.Create("MySLXExtension", "MySLXExtension.PostSaleStatus")
Dim rVal
Dim args
redim args(3)
args(0) = Application.GlobalInfo.Item("OnInvoiceTeam")
if application.BasicFunctions.CurrentOpportunityID <> "" then
args(1) = Application.BasicFunctions.CurrentViewID
args(2) = "2"
args(3) = "0"
else
args(1) = Application.BasicFunctions.CurrentViewID
args(2) = "0"
end if
rVal = Application.Managed.Run(SLXExt, args)
end sub |

Trent is correct, pass in the args in an array (this is how it is designed to work in the first place - when you pass in a single value it actually turns into a one-item array by the time it makes it to the .NET class). Then in the Run method override in the .NET class, the Args parameter already is an array, matching up with the array values you supplied to Application.Managed.Run in the SLX script. |
