Serialize Autocad Document

[rtejada]

Is there a way to serialize/deserialize the entire Autocad Document to send or receive it into a binary stream object.

I will appreciate any help

Yes. The binary format is called the .dwg file.

Actually what I was looking for was to read the content of the entire drawing (which is not saved to a local disk) and be able to send it to a remote location using streams. The case is a remote file that is loaded to the Temporal Internet Files folder and then open, the file displays its remote location on the windows title bar. You can not save the document on this location without changing the windows title information of the drawing, and I wanted to save it back to its remote location.

What's wrong with saving to a local file and copying it
to wherever you want?

Actually that is what I end up doing, the problem is that the users got confused with the path displayed on the windows title since it shows by default the local full path and they get the impression that are working with another file and not with the remote one. I was trying to disable the display full path feature programatically but I could not find the file preference option. It will be great if I can only display the filename on the tile bar.

Thanks for your help
