I'm using the ProductView API M030 - In the documentation of M030 the description of how to implement a menu item in the ProductView context menu is missing. So here is the how to:
In your actor you have to add a method to hande the menu item:
public void manageMenuItemEvent (MenuItemEvent ev )
{
ManageObject (ev.GetMenuItemIf());
}
I have an class where i put all the basic function of the api (pvStdManager). There i have a method that adds the menu item to the world object and call the prior method in the actor:
public static void addMenu (MenuItemEvent menuEvent)
{
try {
//manage the menu item in your actor
stdActor.manageMenuItemEvent(menuEvent);
//add your menu item to the world object
theWorld.AddMenuItem(menuEvent.GetMenuItemIf());
} catch (Exception ex) {
Logger.getLogger(pvStdManager.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
}
The method is staic so you can acess it from everywere in your code. There you have to create a class (i have made a subclass) that extends com.ptc.pview.pvkapp.MenuItemEvent:
private class ProeMenuItemEvent extends com.ptc.pview.pvkapp.MenuItemEvent {
ProeMenuItemEvent() {
super("Enter Menu Text here", 0);
}
public void OnDoCommand() {
// do something
}
}
I like the Idea of Conext menus so i am happy to use that function.
