[mnav]

Hi

i have created a IWebServiceExtension for vault collaboration 2013.

DocumentService AddFileEvents.Post works fine when used from vault explorer client. if i add a file my code runs and update file properties.

But when i add a file(checkin) from Autocad 2013 application using the vault client ribbon bar no event trigger i even tried the post checkin event nothing happning.

any help how i can hook in to post add or checkin event no mather what the client app is.

thanks

First, make sure that your extension is loading.  http://justonesandzeros.typepad.com/blog/2012/07/extension-loading-error-logging.html

Keep in mind that AutoCAD doesn't have the same DLL set that Vault Explorer has.  If AutoCAD can't load all the DLL references, the extension can't load.

Put a breakpoint in the OnLoad() funciton to verify that your extension is truely being loaded and executed.

resolved the issue by updating the autocad vault clients dlls with the ones from vault sdk bin folder.

Debugging Autocad is a bit harder since it is not a .NET exe.  However it shouldn't be hanging on you.

I suggest playing around with the debug options a bit.  For example there is an option for debugging managed code, native code and both.  I have never gotten the "both" option to work.  You want "managed" if you want active breakpoints in .NET code.

If you still can't get it to work, ask around on the AutoCAD programming forums.
