ImplementPluginInterface

ImplementPluginInterface

The ImplementPluginInterface class initializes a PluginInterface for a tool. This class assumes your tool adheres to the standardized naming conventions:

PI_AddIncomingConnection(const wchar_t* pIncomingConnectionType, const wchar_t* pIncomingConnectionName, IncomingConnectionInterface* r_IncConnInt) PI_AddOutgoingConnection(const wchar_t* pOutgoingConnectionName, IncomingConnectionInterface* pIncConnInt) PI_Close(bool bHasErrors) PI_PushAllRecords(__int64 nRecordLimit)

Because this is a templated class, you must specify the type when calling methods.

Methods

Init

Initialize a plugin interface.

static void Init(int nToolId, const EngineInterface * pEngineInterface, PluginInterface *r_pluginInterface, T_PI *pPluginInterface, bool bTakeOwnership)

nToolId: The ID of the tool calling the function.

pEngineInterface: A pointer to the Alteryxengine provided to the plugin's entry point.

r_pluginInterface: A pointer to the PluginInterface object to initialize.

pPluginInterface: An unmanaged pointer to the instance of your plugin.

bTakeOwnership: An option that determines if Alteryx is responsible for releasing the PluginInterface once processing is complete:

• True: Alteryx is responsible.
• False: Interface release is managed by the tool.
