Making a csharp Addin for Visual Studio dockable

[=?Utf-8?B?TWFya3Vz?=]

Hi all

How can I make an Addin written in csharp for Visual Studio dockable, so
that I can place this addin on the right side of the VS environment?
Similar like the "solution explorer", etc..

Any examples are welcome;-)

Thanks
Markus

What you mean by an add-in.

Do you mean a Control that you have written or intend on write in
CSharp that is some kind of side bar.

yes, like a control (or a window) that I would like to write in csharp.

In VS you have a wizard to write an addin for the visual studio himself.
Inside this addin, I will create a window, which will open when I start the
addin.
Now this window will open as a popup window, but I would like to make it
dockable, so that this window will be beside my VS environment (and not like
a popup window)..

Do you mean something like this but that performs a different task?

or are you on about creating a custom control that can be added to the
toolbox and used on other controls.

Yes, something like that...

A window with tabs (showing your example) and make it dockable.

Is it easy to do?
Then I can place the control anywhere in the VS environment?
