what is the best way of getting (modified) event triggered for some specific object?
i see a lot of examples doing: if database is modified, then trigger event, then iterate our list to if that object is in it.
is that the better that way, like to add handler to the specific object, and then when each of them is modified, then each of them call handler?
I'm trying to add a database (excel ) as source for object in Map3D.
I start but when i select the excel file that i've created and stored in my pc map3d says that the cration of the data source doesn't work.
How i can get Database object of Drawing file with out opening.
View 1 Replies View RelatedFor some reason, I can't seem to find all the right steps in the right order to accomplish this. Maybe what I'm trying to do isn't possible.
Using either Map3D 2011 or Map3D 2007:
I have a database (SQL Server) and a drawing (.DWG) with object data fields. For simplicity, lets say the database field names match the object data field names. The key field in the object data is already filled in. I would like to link to the database so the rest of the object data fields are filled from the database. Is this possible? If so, how? The closest I have gotten so far is creating a link template and using mapod2ase, but that creates a separate set of Link Template fields instead of filling in the Object Data fields.
Would you have a solution to accessing ODTables for a dwg object only loaded into memory? I have 1000+ dwgs that I want to return a string with the names of the various ODTable names for auding purposes that I would prefer to just side load rather than full load for performance reasons.
I'm attempting to use something like this (which works fine on an open drawing):
Public Function ReturnOBJData(acObjIDIn As ObjectId, intOffset As Integer) As String
'Don't forget that table is 0 based offset so....plan accordingly Dim strRet As String = ""
Dim acDoc As Document = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument
Dim acDb As Database = acDoc.Database Dim acEd As Editor = acDoc.Editor
[Code] .......
In a fashion along the lines of
Public Function GetTables(strFileIn As String) As List(Of String)
Dim lstReturn As New List(Of String)
Dim acMapApp As MapApplication = HostMapApplicationServices.Application
Dim acActiveProject As Project.ProjectModel = acMapApp.ActiveProject
Dim acTableList As Tables = acActiveProject.ODTables Dim acTable As ObjectData.Table
[Code] ....
The problem is that I can't seem to link the ODTables object off of the memory database object. In this sample, the msgbox always returns a count of 0 where I would expect it to be in the range of 1-4.
I have 200,000 lines with some object data. LINKED to these lines is a database with some more information. Basically I want to export all of these lines to shape files, converting the information in the linked database to be the new object data. (This is for the client to view the lines on ArcGIS).
I have done this a few times in the past, but working with this volume of lines and data, Its taking an extremely long time.
My question is, could i use autolisp to quickly transfer the database data to object data before i export to shape files? or if there are any other options.
I am working on the AutoCAD customization and doing the same by VB.Net & C#.Net. But I just want to know the difference as mentioned below:
1. Insert Block In AutoCAD
Using VB.Net without using DataBase services..Only 1 statement is required to Insert the Block objAcadDocument.ModelSpace.InsertBlock(Required Arguments are here) Using C#.Net with DataBase services
There are many statments are there to insert only 1 block..Like Start Transaction, Lock the document, Get the Object Id Block etc...So my quetion is that when I have to use DataBase services and when not
what is the advantage of doing customization using DataBase services rather than go for wihout DataBase services.?
I have a SelectionAdded event handler that reacts three times when selecing a single block and once when deselecting it.
If there are two blocks in the drawing but only selected one it reacts 5 or 6 times.
And it reacts every time I pass the mouse over the selected block.
Is there any way to sidestep the events in the handler so that AutoCAD doesn't grind to a halt if I have multiple blocks in the drawing. And decide to move my mouse over all of them?
This error (autocad error handler re-entered, Exiting now) happen when i was opening multiple autocad file. After i pressed on the 'ok' button the program close everything without saving the work i had done.

I am trying to add event handler in the "ThisMacroStorage" module of CorelDRAW X3. I wrote a procedure to handle the "GlobalMacroStorage_DocumentOpen(ByVal Doc As Document, ByVal FileName As String)" subroutine. However, it does not trigger when I open an existing document the event does not trigger. When I check the Application.EventEnabled property the value is false. When I set it to true the value remained false.
The handler routine works in X4 and X5 and the Application.EventEnabled are both true in X4 and X5.
why X3 does not trigger? According to the dvba_pg.pdf file the events including "GlobalMacroStorage_DocumentOpen(ByVal Doc As Document, ByVal FileName As String)" will trigger in this case when a file is opened.
Is there something I need to do so that Application.Enabled will true? I did a X3 repair. I reinstalled the Utilities which includes VBA. I reinstalled the 3 updates.
I created my site with Website Creator X5, using a predefined style. Now I want to add a single page (e.g. 404.html). This page should have the same design and graphics, but it should not appear in any menu bar or site structure.

Any equivalent ObjectOverrule for the PnId Database?
If an entity is copied I dont want certain field values to be copied.I've tried an ObjectOverrule but I can't get the RowId at that point.
I also noticed that the field values are set as XData. I edited the XData in my ObjectOverrule but the values still gets copied.Is there a setting at project level to control which fields not to copy?
I am trying to convert several drawings that are linked to an SQL database to SQL spatial. The drawings are from a Autodesk map 2004 system. I have Map D 2013 64Bit installed on a laptop along with SQL server 2012 RC0 (Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 11.0.1750.32 Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 6.1.7601.17514 Microsoft MSXML 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0 Microsoft Internet Explorer 9.0.8112.16421 Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0.30319.269 Operating System 6.1.7601).
To keep my rouge laptop off the company network I exported our existing SQL data to a access database that I placed on the laptop and converted back to SQL and linked it to the 2004 drawings. That part worked fine. I would like to convert all of them to SQL spatial. I have converted a small drawing but it took a couple of hours. I am in the process of a larger drawing that has 60,000 entities and it has been working for 8 hours and only has 4550 of them completed. I am using the output to fdo connection.
As part of the automation requirements we are working on (through the .NET interface), we would like to find out whether a given drawing contains a sphere and if it does we would like to know its properties. We are doing something like this, to loop through the database and am able to get all Solid3d type of objects.
What I would like to know, if a given solid3d object is a sphere or otherwise. The code snippet is pasted here for reference:
bool bContainsSphere = false;
foreach (ObjectId Id in Ids)
{
DBObject oObject = ts.GetObject(Id, OpenMode.ForRead);
if (oObject.GetType().Name == "Solid3d")

I want to create an application that intensively uses dynamic blocks, cross checking any new or changed block entity with existing ones.
It needs to be almost instantaneous but the only way I know will be impractical.
Looping through the property collection of each block reference, searching for each parameter then checking for a match.
Is there some sort of database functionality I can use to quickly compare block information?
I have created a new database: Database newDb = new Database(true, true) Inserted a block into modelspace and now I want to zoom extent before saving.
Can this be done working on a new database in memory? all the examples I have seen on this board use Interop on a open document.
How can I link an external database(say access/oracle) to a drawing so that I m able to insert/update attribute directly from the autocad map drawing.

I'm having a problem accessing data manager tables in the 2011 version. My C# .NET code worked fine with 2010. Here is a sample of the 2010 code that works, but returns zero length tables in 2011.
C#
ProjectPartCollection oPP = PlantApplication.CurrentProject.ProjectParts;
PlantProject oPProj = PlantApplication.CurrentProject;
Project oProj = oPP["PnId"];
try
{
//get ACAD data table
[code].......
The last two lines fail to object any meaningful data in 2011. In 2010, I would have all the table rows and could access tags and asset information.

Dim oDb As Database = HostApplicationServices.WorkingDatabase
and
Dim oDb As Database = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Database

It was noted that this code didn't work (which I can confirm):
"Just a guess, but you probably have to add it to the Database in order to use it."
I can't find any way to add this to the database. I'm working with the R2010 drawing format it that is relevant.
Can you have a database and the dwg file open at the same time and not be in read-only mode?
For example: I have access database file open and editing it while in the dwg file with the graphical info that is linked to the database.
i have a point file specifically a PNEZD file. when i import points into the survey database the coordinate in the database is correct but the coordinate on the drawing tends to be 5 feet off one way and 1 foot off the other. When I import point through the points pull-down menu the coordinates are correctly shown. When I import point into survey database from drawing the coordinate is incorrect in the database but correct on screen.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am working on an application which uses an oracle database as backend. The application uses a login dialog in void IExtensionApplication.Initialize()
so my application knows the credentials for the oracle database. I use a drawing-template which has a database link in it. This points to a UDL-file in 'Data Links'. If i add the Credentials to this file and set the Parameter Persist Security Info=True the Credentials are ignored. So i thought i can avoid the additional loginprocesses if I add the following
var acadApp = (Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop.AcadApplication)Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.AcadApplication;dynamic cao Connect = acadApp.GetInterfaceObject("CAO.DBConnect.16");cao Connect.Connect("myconnection.UDL", "username", "password", false);
If i don't execute the code above i need two logins for the new drawing. After I added the code to my application I still need one oft this.
I have written a command that replaces the given annotative scale of all objects in a drawing, with another annotative scale. Works great, except I can't remove the replaced annotative scale (with SCALELISTEDIT - DELETE button), unless I save the drawing and then open it again.
An annotative scale that is in use, can't be deleted. But since I can delete it after reopening the drawing, I am sure it is not in use anymore.
Is there a way to "refresh" the drawing/database, without reopening it?
I have started a new project and would like to use the database table from a previous project with this one. Basically what I want to do is create a new shape file using the a previous database table so I do not have to create a whole new data base.
