ade_dwgindex

Drawing Functions

Applies specified index operations to a drawing.

rtype

ade_dwgindex(

ade_id dwgID);

Returns RTNORM or an error code.

When you call ade_dwgindex, indexes in the specified drawing are created or removed in accordance with the current index operation definition created by one or more calls to ade_dwgindexdef. If there is no index operation definition, ade_dwgindex has no effect on the drawing and returns ADE_NULLID.

The following sample, first clears any existing index defenitions using ade_dwgindexdef() with an empty string, ("") for the indexType parameter. A location index and an object data index are then defined and executed against all active drawings in the current project using ade_dwgindex(). Resbufs are then released as required. For more samples, see Creating Index Operation Expressions.
