Can't add Raster Images: newImageAttach / manipulate

[con-pnd]

I am currently trying to use classes AcDbRasterImageDef and AcDbRasterImage and i followed the Examplecode on ObjectARX 2008 Sample ISM: Link: ism example.zip

After some fixes i finally got some tiny results: I finally got through the newImageAttach() function and could see an entity in the Image list. But something went wrong, because i couldn't see that image in my drw. neither in the Raster Design Image-dropdownlist. Take a look at my screenshot:

On its status it's "Nicht referenziert", which means "not referenced" and if i try to embed this image, ACAD will close with an Exception. Second problem is, that i couldn't manipulate this image because the line:

ErrorStatus = acdbOpenObject((AcDbObject*&) pAcDbRasterImage, parEntityId, AcDb::kForWrite);

returns an ErrorStatus::eNullObjectId which means, that objId is AcDbObjectId::kNull.

Could you guys take a look on my code and tell me what i am doing wrong here?

Thanks a lot!

Yours sincerely

       if (ErrorStatus != Acad::eOk) {
        // Failed to create Definition.
            ads_printf(_T("Error: Failed to create Definition.\n")); 
            return ErrorStatus;
       }

What about  to add braces in your's code? Otherwise, the function returns even if no error.

P.S.: There are a few such places in the code.

Thx for that advice. I guess i'm a bit lazy, and used to program without (normally programming in Python).

I will try it 🙂
