How to call acutWcMatchEx

Anonymous — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 02:06:44 GMT

Try to make calls to acutWcMatchEx, acutWcMatch or similar functions inside .net, the manual says you can do it.
"Your .NET application can include C++ portions, so you can also use ObjectARX APIs that do not have managed wrappers."

Could someone show me some sample how to call acutWcMatchEx of ObjectARX from inside .net?

Tony, thank you very much. Your code gave me the last piece I need to assemble a .net library to show/hide layers, including those of a viewport. A lisp can call into it to set layers up in a layout after plot command is called, when no (command) can be used. Thanks.
