Client Automation Toolbar (Error in 10x)

SDK

Wondering if anyone has deployed a Client Automation Add-In to LF 10x. I've created an application as a new toolbar and in LF version 9x it works fine. When deployed to 10x it installs without any issues. It adds the toolbar buttons but it complains when a custom button is clicked. The following Error is generated “Input string was not in the correct format”

Below is an example of one button command:

CustomButtonManager.exe" -buttonclick -connguid "%(ConnectionGUID)" -hwnd "%(hwnd)" -pid "%(PID)" -DocumentID "%(DocumentID)" -SelectedPages "%(SelectedPages)" -SelectedEntries "%(SelectedEntries)" -command changeredactioncolor

NOTE: This command line syntax works in version 9. Also, if you deploy the SDK10 CA sample project to a v10 repository you get the same error.

Try removing the -SelectedEntries "%(SelectedEntries)", that only applies to the folder browser. The 10 client was updated to not clear out tokens that it doesn't recognize, so the sample code is out of date.

Many thanks, that change corrected the issue.

Looks like changes are required for LF 10.2

Dim argsbase As String = " -buttonclick -connguid ""%(ConnectionGUID)"" -hwnd ""%(hwnd)"" -pid ""%(PID)"" -DocumentID ""%(DocumentID)"" -SelectedEntries ""%(SelectedEntries)"" "

If I use ( -SelectedPages ""%(SelectedPages)" ) as per the sample code, the buttons within the main client window are greyed out.
