Different ways of reading a document database

[DiogoSantos]

Hello,

I'm getting a problem regarding getting a document database. I've tested two alternatives:

Alternative1

doc = autoCadApp.DocumentManager.Open(fullpath);
autoCadApp.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument = doc;
doc.LockDocument(DocumentLockMode.Write, null, null, false);

Database db = doc.Database

Alternative2

Database db = new Database(true, false);

db.ReadDwgFile(fullpath, FileShare.ReadWrite, false, string.Empty);

Because what I'm trying to do is modify the xref path of documents, and when i detach the xref and then attach the newer xref, if i access the database from the alternative 1, I don't get any error and the xref is updated correctly. But when I use the alternative number 2, when I attach a newer xref i get and ePermantlyErased exception. Shouldn't that be the same? By the way, I need to open the document silently that is why I'm using alternative number 2.

Thanks and kind regards,

Diogo

post your code for alt 2

Hello,

I was doing something wrong, I've already corrected it.

Besides doing the code of alternative 2, i was still openning the document, and for that i was getting exceptions related to conflicts.

Thanks anyway.

I figured it was something like that.
