Are there plugin equivalents for roiManager commands?

[Charles R Parker]

Hi all,

I'm having trouble separately processing individual rois on an image
having multiple rois. I have a macro with a loop that calls
roiManager("Select", n) followed by a call to a plugin to process the
selected roi. However, with each additional roi, the plugin processes the
steadily increasing bounding box of the multiple rois. My macro code is :
___________________________________
roiManager("Open", "mypath_to_\RoiSetL.zip");
n=roiManager("count");
G="L";
for (i=0;i<n;i++){
  roiManager("Select",i);
  run("myPlugin", "Group="+G+" iW=10 iH=10"); // a side issue is that the
plugin does not read the arguments correctly
}
roiManager("Delete");

roiManager("Open", "mypath_to_\RoiSetN.zip");
n=roiManager("count");
G="N";
for (i=0;i<n;i++){
  roiManager("Select",i);
  run("myPlugin", "Group="+G+" iW=10 iH=10"); // a side issue is that the
plugin does not read the arguments correctly
}
roiManager("Delete");

Is this something easily fixed in the macro, or would this be easier to do
entirely within the plugin with appropriate functions?
I have been unable to get calls such as IJ.roiManager(); to work from a
plugin. I continually get errors such as:

Any suggestions will be appreciated.
