Get Pipe and Structure Tables via API

[soonhui]

It does seem that there is no way to get the Pipe and Structure Table via API? Let alone creating one via C#. Alas some other tables are available though, eg:

      [CommandMethod(nameof(GetTables))]
      public void GetTables()
      {
          var doc = CivilApplication.ActiveDocument;
          
          // the below code works
          GetAllTables(doc.GetAlignmentTableIds());
          GetAllTables(doc.GetLegendTableIds());
          GetAllTables(doc.GetParcelSegmentTableIds());
          GetAllTables(doc.GetParcelTableIds());
          GetAllTables(doc.GetPointTableIds());

         
      }

      private static void GetAllTables(ObjectIdCollection tableIDs)
      {
          foreach (ObjectId alignmentTableId in tableIDs)
          {
              
          }
      }

Do I miss anything?

I came to the same conclusion after trying to figure it out recently. Short of exploding the table to be able to extract information, I got stuck. Though someone with more API experience may have better insight.

Even you can get the objects of "other tables" by their ID, there is nothing more you can do: no table related properties/methods are exposed in the API.

As evidenced by Project Explorer using vanilla AutoCAD Table with cell values that just get updated dynamically.
