IExtendedEntryPoint Interface (2007 System)

Visual Studio 2008

Extends IEntryPoint to enable the host application to get a handle to the add-in object.

Namespace:  Microsoft.VisualStudio.Tools.Applications.Runtime
Assembly:  Microsoft.VisualStudio.Tools.Applications.Runtime.v9.0 (in Microsoft.VisualStudio.Tools.Applications.Runtime.v9.0.dll)
public interface IExtendedEntryPoint : IEntryPoint

You must implement this interface in the add-in code if you want to enable two-way communication between the host application and the add-in. An example of when IExtendedEntryPoint is necessary is when the host application supports macros.
