The IControlPanel interface exposes all the methods required to interact with the Home page of each connection object in IIS Manager. These methods enable you to perform such actions as registering pages, adding new categories, and getting the list of pages.
The IControlPanel methods and properties are scoped to a single connection. A module should use this interface at initialization to register features for display in the connection's Home page.
The following example registers a feature in the Home page for a connection.
internal class DemoModule :
Microsoft.Web.Management.Client.Module {
protected override void Initialize(
IServiceProvider serviceProvider,
ModuleInfo moduleInfo) {
base.Initialize(serviceProvider, moduleInfo);
IControlPanel cp =
(IControlPanel)GetService(typeof(IControlPanel));
ModulePageInfo modulePageInfo = new ModulePageInfo(
this,
typeof(DemoPage),
"My Page Title 4",
"My Page Description 4",
rLoadImg.loadImgs("rSmall.bmp"), // small image
rLoadImg.loadImgs("rLarge.bmp"), // large image
"My Page long description 4" // long description
);
cp.RegisterPage(modulePageInfo);
// Register the Category as
// Application Development
string s =
ControlPanelCategoryInfo.ApplicationDevelopment;
cp.RegisterPage(s, modulePageInfo);
// Register the Area as IIS
s = ControlPanelCategoryInfo.Iis;
cp.RegisterPage(s, modulePageInfo);
// cp.RegisterHomepage(modulePageInfo);
}
}
