[DXLog.net - Support] My First C# script

[Oliver Grossmann]

Hello Chris,

thanks for the information.

I started with the MS Visual Studio 2010 Express C# to write my first 
script.

I do like the possibility to sync speed of PC Keyer and internal radio 
keyer. In my case I want to sync internal K3 Keyer with DXLog.net. The 
script is using the event main._cwKeyer.CWSpeedChange. To activate the 
script I do need to call it on a message or by pressing a assigned key. 
For my script a start at startup would be a great feature, for other 
scripts a start at loading a certain contest could also be a nice.

My Programming skill are limited to C and C++, so the strictly world of 
object oriented programming is quite new to me.

In my script I wasn't able to get access to a CATCommon object from the 
main instance. I resolved this by using a module global variable of type 
FrmMain and used it in my callback for the CWSpeedChange. Is this a 
suitable solution or is there a better way to handle it without an 
direct reference to the FrmMain instance?

As reference I attached my Script.

Thanks a lot for the support and the fantastic script interface,

Olli, DH2WQ
