Prerequisite: Follow the link How to create a new project to create your application with LinsUIWPF Suite.

1.     Assign a unique ID, which is between FlexConstants.m_nUserDefinedControlStartID (1000) and FlexConstants.m_nUserDefinedControlStartID (10,000,000), to the CommandID property of the tool item.

<src:FlexMenuItem ID="1022" CommandID="1001" Text=”My Command” Name=”myToolItem”/>

2.     Create a class as follows,

class MyCommand : LinsUICommand

{

public MyCommand(long nCommandID, object data) : base(nCommandID, data)

{

}

public override void Execute(object parameter)

{

base.Execute(parameter);

///////////////////////////////////

// Execute your command here

///////////////////////////////////

}

[CommandEventAttribute(COMMAND_EVENT.HELPBUTTON_CLICK)]

protected void HelpClick(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

/////////////////////////////////////////////////

// Create and show your own help document here when the ? help button is clicked

/////////////////////////////////////////////////

}

public override bool CanExecute(object parameter)

{

return true;

}

}

3.     Create the command with the given unique ID (here is 1001). This will automatically link the command to the tool item.

public partial class Window1 : LinsMDIWindow

{

public Window1()

{

InitializeComponent();

MyCommand myCommand = new MyCommand(1001, null);

}

}
