Hi,
I tried to create a function to draw a Polyline (LWPolyline). I tried to create function in a Class as static function(DrawBox) and invoke it from another Class(DrawBox_Test). when I test it, the Polyline does not show up. If I save drawing and reopen it, it show up. if create a block with select all (I can not pick it from drawing because it is not there), the Polyline show up.
When I put all code to 1 Class(DBox_Test), it works.
Here is the code:
In AutoCADLIB.cs:
using System;

using Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.EditorInput;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Geometry;

{
///

public class AutoCADLIB
{
//
// Draw a rectangle box
public static Entity DrawBox(Point2d pt, double Width, double Height, BlockTableRecord btr)
{
Database db = HostApplicationServices.WorkingDatabase;
Transaction trans = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction();
Editor ed = Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor;
BlockTable bt = (BlockTable)trans.GetObject(db.BlockTableId,OpenMode.ForWrite);
BlockTableRecord btr2 = (BlockTableRecord)trans.GetObject(bt[BlockTableRecord.ModelSpace],OpenMode.ForWrite);
Polyline plBox;
try
{
plBox = new Polyline(4);
plBox.Normal = Vector3d.ZAxis;
plBox.AddVertexAt (0, pt, 0.0,-1.0,-1.0);
plBox.AddVertexAt (1, new Point2d(pt.X+Width, pt.Y),0.0,-1.0,-1.0);
plBox.AddVertexAt (2, new Point2d(pt.X+Width,pt.Y+Height),0.0,-1.0,-1.0);
plBox.AddVertexAt (3, new Point2d(pt.X,pt.Y+Height),0.0,-1.0,-1.0);
plBox.Closed = true;
btr2.AppendEntity(plBox);
trans.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(plBox,true);
trans.Commit();
// plBox.Close();
}
catch (System.Exception caught)
{
ed.WriteMessage(caught.ToString());
plBox = null;
}
finally
{
trans.Dispose();
}
return plBox;
}
}
}

What's wrong in my code?
Thank you and I really appreaciate your help
