Posted on by DynamicsDevBeginner

Hello,

I am trying to implement a new control add in in NAV 2016 following this tutorial: msdn.microsoft.com/.../dn182584(v=nav.90).aspx Steps

My Problem: When I want to edit the events defined in the C# file, they do not show up in the C/AL editor inside NAV Development. I don't know why?

Here is my C# code:

using Microsoft.Dynamics.Framework.UI.Extensibility;

namespace ThreeJSControlAddIn
{
    [ControlAddInExport("ThreeJSControlAddIn")]
    public interface IThreeJSControlAddIn
    {
        [ApplicationVisible]
        event ApplicationEventHandler ControlAddInReady;

        [ApplicationVisible]
        event ApplicationEventHandler ThreeJSLoaded;

        [ApplicationVisible]
        void LoadData();
    }
}

Here's the C/AL Editor window:

Solution is very easy. Change AssemblyFileVersion in AssemblyInfo.cs.

When importing Add-In to NAV, it compare file versions.

Hi,

the name differs because I built everything from scratch, following the tutorial.

I've checked everything more than once and it still didn't work.

I've deleted the control add in in the field of the page and added it again - now it's working!

I tried that now you get the addin controls triggers.

But when opening the page the addin box shows error (Control addin not configured).

Hi,

Check this.

As your C# interface code, try to keep the same naming "ThreeJSControlAddIn" for the Control Add-in name in NAV too and also the dll. Check the screenshots.

[ControlAddInExport("ThreeJSControlAddIn")]

Also, check the field property Control Add in the field of the page.

Hello,

thanks for your help. The tutorial you suggested works, but it does not implement any C/AL events.

Like Manish Sharma, I retried following this tutorial:

I copied the .dll file into NAV and also inserted the control add in into the control add in page. But unfortunately, the events do not show up inside C/AL.

Therefore I think that something has changed between 2013 and 2016, and something is missing.

I too had the same issue, i had deleted all the code & recreated every thing from scratch.

Methods & constructor shows up but then it gives error of variable not defined.

Looks like some thing is missing in the tutrioal.

Hi,

You have to copy the dll which will be on your \Visual Studio 2015\Projects\<Your App>\bin\Debug folder to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\90\RoleTailored Client\Add-ins this folder.

Hope it helps.
