Create a plug-in (snap-in) for IIS Manager

Question

Is It possible to create a UI plug-in for IIS manager or the Windows server 2008 manager program?

Or is possible to create a MMC plug-in in C#?

Answer 1

Yes, Microsoft ships an MMC SDK, it was first shipped as part of the Windows Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003.

It allows you to build MMC "snap ins" in managed code.

Here's a good basic tutorial covering the construction of a MMC snap-in in C#.

Answer 2

Here's a few links.

• CodeProject - creating a snap-in
• CodeProject - building a snap-in application

I have not looked at these, but they should get you started.

Hope this helps and best of luck in your MMC snap-in development, Best regards, Tom.
