autoarxload

Predefines command names to load an associated ObjectARX file

(autoarxload filename cmdlist)

The first time a user enters a command specified in cmdlist, AutoCAD loads the ObjectARX application specified in filename, then continues the command.

If you associate a command with filename and that command is not defined in the specified file, AutoCAD alerts you with an error message when you enter the command.

Arguments

filename

A string specifying the .arx file to be loaded when one of the commands defined by the cmdlist argument is entered at the Command prompt. If you omit the path from filename, AutoCAD looks for the file in the support file search path.

cmdlist

A list of strings.

Return Values

nil

Examples

The following code defines the C:APP1, C:APP2, and C:APP3 functions to load the bonusapp.arx file:

(autoarxload "BONUSAPP" '("APP1" "APP2" "APP3"))
