In the .NET console, there's a "Report Record Command" add-in type that "injects" record commands into report rows, so in addition to the standard copy, delete, edit and etc. commands, you can build your own "foo" command to do something useful on report rows. In BUI it appears there's an IRecordCommandContext analytics extension that does the same thing.
I've written a very basic one that just logs a console message - taken straight from the examples in the documentation - but it's not showing up in my report rows in BUI. BUI's loading it, and it's being initialized, it's just that the command it's supposed to implement doesn't show up when I run the report. With Report Record Commands, you have to edit the report definition, select "Records" from the Home group, and enable your command for use in the report. But...BUI doesn't appear to be capable of editing reports, and the .NET console doesn't load BUI extensions, so I can't take this familiar next step.
What am I missing?
