What use such a plug-in would have in the IDE?

You cannot visualize your code ;)

Yes, a framework or plugin which will let one develop GIS applications.
Maybe something like GIS.NET. I haven't used it but wondered if anyone has,
and what they thought about it...or if there is anything better.

First I would examine this:
http://www.codeplex.com/SharpMap

It is an open source GIS "framework" that works on the .NET Framework 2.0.
They are going to release SharpMap 2.0 soon. The info is here:
http://tinyurl.com/3357uf

There are many other GIS products out there. It really depends on what you
are trying to accomplish. For pure mapping, Google maps (MapQuest/Yahoo,
etc.) may be the ticket. For more in depth dicing of information on maps,
you will likely want a framework.

Other .NET GIS bits
----------------------

Open Source
--------------
Gecko.NET (http://www.svggis.com/geckonet.aspx)
Geotools.NET (http://geotoolsnet.sourceforge.net/Default.html)
NetTopologySuit e (http://nts.sourceforge.net/)
SharpShape (http://sourceforge.net/projects/sharpshape)
This last one is more for working with shape files than mapping

Commercial
-------------
GIS.NET from GeoFrameworks (www.geoframeworks.com)
Geobase (www.geobase.info)
CarnacGIS.Net (http://tinyurl.com/y2ftsl)
Dundas Map for .NET (http://tinyurl.com/32dgo5)
ArcGIS (http://www.esri.com/software/arcgis/index.html)
Manifold System (http://www.manifold.net/index.shtml)
AnyMap (http://tinyurl.com/289zdd)
MapDotNet (http://www.mapdotnet.com/Pages2.0/Index.aspx)
MapMatrix Server (http://tinyurl.com/27ljb3)

Note that map vendors, like TeleAtlas have developers networks
(http://tinyurl.com/2h72fk), as does ESRI (http://edn.esri.com/).

If you want LBS (Location Based Services), AT&T is now in that game, as well
as other carriers. AT&T recently went beta with some LBS bits. It is hard to
get into their program very deep at this time, as it is invite only.

I'm in the process of writing an open-source plugin-enabled application. I know that you can define the API in several ways, and right now it is equipped as an Interface. The gist of the functionality, is when a timer expires, the app will notify the plugins that it's time for them to do their work. Now, the plugins may take an indeterminate period of time (e.g.: they have nothing to do, or they have a few seconds of work to do). ...

I wanted to test my plugin manager and wrote two codes, one for a C# plugin, one for a C++ plugin. The codes are appended at the end. My problem: The C++ class is only inherited from the interface if at least one function is implemeted in the C file. When I implement the class only in the header file (like in the code below), ILDASM shows that the class is NOT inheriting the interface.
