I'm trying to add my own tag plugin to an object from inside a GeDialog plugin.
To do this I assume we need to use Tplugin?
The SDK says to pass the plugin's ID to Tplugin. But it doesn't say how to do that.
Pass it how?

Suppose I have a tag plugin with the ID#1000003.
When I'm in my GeDialog plugin I can search for it like this:

BasePlugin *myplugin = FindPlugin(1000003, PLUGINTYPE_ANY);  
  if(!myplugin) return FALSE;

Yup...It's there and I can see it from inside my GeDialog plugin.
So now I go about trying to create the tag:

BaseObject *active = doc->GetActiveObject();  
BaseTag *myTag = active->MakeTag(Tplugin);  
Now what?  
How do I "pass" the ID#1000003 to the tag?

I still have no idea what Tplugin is used for.

I think Tplugin is meant to check if a tag is a registered plugin with C4DAtom::IsInstanceOf(Tplugin).
