selecting block references from a single layer

[Anonymous]

Hi Everyone, I'm Tallano, new to the board. 

Using acutBuildList and acedSSGet, I'm trying to make a selection of block references contained in one named layer:

struct resbuf* eb1 = acutBuildList(0, ACRX_T("INSERT"), 8, ACRX_T("MY_LAYER_NAME"), 0);

Obviouly, I'm doing something wrong, because my selection is not what I expect.

Someone can help?

What did you get, and how was it different from what you expected?

You might need to match the entity type with RTDXF0, instead of 0, at the front of your list. I think putting 0 ends the list.

I got every entity selected with my first version of acutBuildList.

Using RTDXF0 instead of 0 got it working.

Thanks!
