Importing LineTypes from ACADISO.LIN

[Anonymous]

I am creating a LayerTable and LayerTableRecords. In the LayerTableRecord I am only able to set the linetypeid to Continuous for example if the layertablerecord is ltr I can say ltr.LinetypeObjectId = db.ContinuousLinetype (where db is the currently working database). I need to use the linetypes defined in the acadiso.lin, such as DASHDOT. Do I need to recreate them or is there a reference I can call?

Dim lt As LinetypeTable =
ta.GetObject(dwg.Database.LinetypeTableId, OpenMode.ForRead)

If lt.Has("DashDot") = False
Then
    'upgrade the open for read to
write
    lt.UpgradeOpen()
    'linetype not
found so load from AutoCAD ISO standard file
   
dwg.Database.LoadLineTypeFile("DashDot", "acadiso.lin")
   
'commit adding the linetype
    ta.Commit()
End
If
