Loads a topology into memory.
int
tpm_acload(
char *toponame,
int source);
Returns RTNORM or an error code.
| toponame | The name of the topology to load. |
| source | The source flag, either 1 (read from source drawings only) or 0 (read from current drawing only). The default is 0. |
Before loading a topology, you must first test for its existence with tpm_acexist.
Topology information is stored in the drawing, but the topology is not automatically loaded when you open the drawing. If you want, for example, to query, edit, or overlay a topology, you must load it into memory. Once loaded, the topology remains in memory until you unload it.
