"undo objects" in the api
has anyone developed an addin which creates something new in the sw part and adds it to the undo queue so that it's undo-able by the user?
there's some documentation about undo objects, but i'm not quite sure i understand how it works.
i'm using sw2009 and my addin is developed in c++, but any examples in that language would be best, but i won't be choosy.

hi,
swmodeldocext.startrecordingundoobject
'do the task
swmodeldocext.finishrecordingundoobject ("api undo")
scott,
thanks, but isn't there more than that? i've put that code around some simple isketchmanager::createline() calls and undo is not available afterwards.
the connection between these 2 functions and imodeldocextension::setapiundoobject() is not clear to me...the "startrecording" and "endrecording" functions dont explicitly require that the undoobject or it's handler be defined, but since i have not done that, maybe that's why undo isn't available to me. when i debug finishrecordingundoobject() returns a result of s_false.
if this is the case, exactly what should my handler look like?
if this is not the case, what else might i be doing wrong?
---edited----
more to the point, what would a c++ handler look like?
