ade_dwgproplist

Lists all values found in a drawing for a given drawing property.

struct resbuf*

ade_dwgproplist(

ade_id dwg_id,

char* property);

Returns a resbuf list or NULL.

dwg_id	Drawing ID.
property	Property name. See Property Names below.

You must release the resbuf.

The function searches the given drawing and returns a list of the values it finds for the given drawing property.

The following sample gets a drawing ID from an attached drawing using ade_dwggetid then parses the resbuf returned by ade_dwgproplist() and prints a list of object data tables found in the attached drawing. Then it releases the resbuf, as required.

char* pszDwgPathName = "MYDWGS:\\SanFranMarina_BlkGrp_OD.dwg";
ade_id dwgId = ade_dwggetid (pszDwgPathName);
char* pszPropValue = "objdata";
struct resbuf* pDwgPropertyRb = ade_dwgproplist(dwgId, pszPropValue);
if(pDwgPropertyRb != NULL) {
    struct resbuf* rb = pDwgPropertyRb;
    while(rb != NULL) {
        acutPrintf(
                "\nThe current drawing set contains the following %s information: %s"
                ,pszPropValue, rb->resval.rstring);
        rb = rb->rbnext;
    }
}
else{
    acutPrintf(
        "\nNo information could be retrieved.");
}
acutRelRb(pDwgPropertyRb);
