AcMapQueryPE::swapIdWith Method

Swap ID with the prototype entity during saving back.

virtual Acad::ErrorStatus swapIdWith(
    AcDbEntity * pEnt, 
    AcDbObjectId otherId, 
    Adesk::Boolean swapXdata, 
    Adesk::Boolean swapExtDict
);

Returns Acad::eOk on success.

Saving back involves the following steps:

• Clone objects to the original database using wblockCloneObjects().
• Swap Ids for all old and new copies using AcDbObject::swapIdWith().
• Swap all references using AcDbObject::swapReferences().
• Erase old copies.

There are two virtual AcDbObject methods which could be used by custom objects to participate in the process: subSwapIdWith() and swapReferences(). The swapIdWith method lets you control swapping Xdata and Extension dictionaries. By default, they are not swapped.
