Is there an equal function like InventorApplication.Ready in ACAD?

[Passi]

Hi to all,

I've started AutoCAD and want to check if the process is being completly loaded and ready to get other commands.

In Inventor there's an function that gives true or false if Inventor is completly loaded. Is there something equal in AutoCAD? (InventorApplication.Ready)

Could you check, please, if Editor.EnteringQuiescentState event can help?

Hi and thanks to the Tip.

I've searched a little bit more and found this one:

Application.GetAcadState.IsQuiescent

Seams to be in the same direction or get I wrong? I don't know the word "Quiescent", but I think it should be something like "I'm waiting for some input" 🙂

I tried this, and it seems to work:

        Dim Retry As Boolean
        Retry = True
        While Retry = True
            Try
                While ACAD.Application.GetAcadState.IsQuiescent = False
			'wait
                End While
                Retry = False
            Catch IfCallsRejected As Exception
                Retry = True
            End Try
        End While

Please correct me, if I've done something terrible wrong thing 🙂

The Try and Catch Block with the Retry While Loop seems to be necessary in my case. sometimes vb.net gots an error message:

RPC_E_CALL_REJECTED

and the only way I've found to get away from it, is only to retry the same thing again and it's working.

I think the problem is that your While cycle does not let incoming messages to be processed. From this point of view, subscription to the even is a better solution.
