I couldn't run it on my VS even after adding the Test file... Could you please make a simple setup binary for it too?

At what point did you get stuck? Allready got the menu items added in your tools menu?

For just using it, copy dll and OvernightPowerAddIns.AddIn to your add-in dir. Before using it, set the xml settings to ur local settings. Connect the add-in to this xml file by selecting the first newly added menu item and select save.

I also create a installer uncomming week.. hang on!

any one else experiencing problems, or has great ideas, pls let me know!! fh_kroondijk{nospam}@yahoo.com

Hi. I am running Visual Studio 2005 with the Windows SDK (.NET 3.0) loaded on my machine.
Installation seemed to go well, but when I clik "Refresh List", nothing comes up. My solution consists of two projects, one of which definitely has a .dll. Also, the menu item disappears sometimes. Let me know if you need more info. Great Job so far!!!!

Hi,
I get an Error when I try to create the documents. Everything seems to be set up properly - at least I can see the dll's in the sandcastle window after refreshing the List. But when I click "create documents" it says:

"Cannot open the file [...]\output\Test.hhc."

[...] is the ProcessToDir path.

Then it creates a broken .chm file, styles, scripts and art, but also no html files.

I also dont get it, why the name of the .hhc file should be "Test" - could it be a wrong sandcastle configuration pointing to the Example file (test.cs)? Couldn't figure it out until now.

Any Ideas?

the Settings.xml file contains field:
SandCastleConfigFile C:\Program Files\Sandcastle\personal\/SandCastleConfigFile
this folder should contain the sandcastel.config delivered in the project (folder "configurationfiles")
If that doesnt help, make sure rest of the xml settings are correctly set according to your local system.
Pls let me know if it did the trick
Frank

Your addin shows up in Add-in manager, first two checkboxes are checked, the command line checkbox is not. Still I don't see any added menu items in Tools menu.
