Cancel Command when switching documents

SRSDS — Mon, 23 Nov 2020 18:37:31 GMT

If I have an active command that is in the midst of a transaction when switching documents (say inserting a block) how do I ensure that transaction is closed before the switch occurs?

I have a counter that monitors opened and closed transactions and it triggers a warning when I do.

The document switch can only occurs when you're using an interactive method like Editor.Getxxx(). In this case, the returned status will be PromptStatus.Cancel. You can then commit your transaction (if it is what you mean by "close the transaction").

PromptPointResult result = editor.GetPoint("\nInsertion point: "); if (result.Status == PromptStatus.Cancel) { transaction.Commit(); // Note: the transaction need to be disposed, you have to put it in an using. return; }

Thankyou. You're right, it does complete the code.

The DocumentToBeDeactivated handler executes then it reverts to finish. Which I didn't realise.

I need to adjust my transaction count error warnings for that.

Thanks!
