refresh vault status ( in vaultAddin ) via API

[Anonymous]

I´m working on an addin that needs the vaultAddin ( Inventor Vault / InventorVault.dll ) to update it´s vaultinfo via API.

Since the vaultaddins browserpane.control is an activeX control I can´t access it, and the addin has not implemented a hook to the browserpane.refresh() or browserpane.update() ( causes a crash )

So how do I refresh the vaultAddins information on "what´s actually going on in the vault" through API ?

It seems like I "just" need a reference to the same eventhandler the "refresh vault status" button is calling, but that might be wishfull thinking..?

( C#, VS2012 )

I´m not alone in this 😉

Hi,

I have no idea with vaultaddin reference, but perhaps, you may try this.

Sub Vault_Refreshtest()

Set ctrdef = ThisApplication.CommandManager.ControlDefinitions.Item("VaultRefresh")

If Not ctrdef Is Nothing Then

ctrdef.Execute

End If

End Sub
