MQCreatePlugin class

(new in Rev2.40)

MQCreatePlugin class inherits MQBasePlugin class, and provides functions necessary for an implementation of a Create plug-in.

You can make a Create plug-in with a simple implementation and without taking care of complex message procedures between a plug-in and a main part of Metasequoia by inheriting this MQCreatePlugin class and implementing required virtual functions.

In MQCreatePlugin class, each plug-in member functions and messages are declared as virtual functions. It is necessary to implement the virtual function in the inherited class.

MQCreatePlugin::MQCreatePlugin();

This method is a constructor.


virtual MQCreatePlugin::~MQCreatePlugin();

This method is a destructor. It is defined as a virtual function.


virtual int MQCreatePlugin::GetPlugInType();

Return value
A plug-in type
[MQPLUGIN_TYPE_CREATE] Create plug-in

This method implements a virtual function declared by MQBasePlugin::GetPlugInType(). No additional implementation is necessary in an inherited class.


virtual const char *MQCreatePlugin::EnumString(int index);

index
An index
Return value
A displayed string

It returns a displayed string for a menu and so on.

This function is called when Metasequoia starts up. The 'index' is called sequentially from 0, and the call ends  when this function returns NULL.

This method implements a virtual function declared by MQEnumString(). No additional implementation is necessary in an inherited class.


virtual BOOL MQCreatePlugin::Execute(int index, MQDocument doc);

index
An index
doc
A document
Return value
Succeeded or failed
[TRUE] Succeeded to create
[FALSE] Failed to create

It creates a new object.

This method implements a virtual function declared by MQCreate(). No additional implementation is necessary in an inherited class.
