How to get .net to Create a Layer then add 1 to it

Ok... i am Very new to .net but i have written a little bit of lisp. SO what i want to do is Create a layer

called C-WATR-PIPE-6IN~ if it does not exist. this i figured out and is in the Code

Then if that layer Exist i want it to create C-WATR-PIPE-6IN~-SUP1 Again its in the Code below but how do i get it to automatically

go to the next number as in C-WATR-PIPE-6IN~-SUP2 i've tried everything i can think of but i get an error that object already exist so its still reading

the Sup 1 i just want it to keep adding Layers Sith the Sup1, 2, 3, Etc each time i run the command

 

See Code Below

 

Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.EditorInput
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.Colors
Imports Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices

Public Class SupLyr
    <CommandMethod("SupLyrs")>
    Public Sub SupLyrs()

        '' Get The Current Document and Database
        Dim acDoc As Document = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument
        Dim acCurDb As Database = acDoc.Database

        '' Start a Transaction
        Using acTrans As Transaction = acCurDb.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()

            '' Open the Layer Table for Read
            Dim acLyrTbl As LayerTable
            acLyrTbl = acTrans.GetObject(acCurDb.LayerTableId,
                                         OpenMode.ForRead)

            Dim HALayerName As String = "C-WATR-PIPE-6IN~"
            Dim sLayerSup As String = "-SUP"
            Dim NSup As Integer = 0

            If acLyrTbl.Has(HALayerName) = False Then
                Using acLyrTblRec As LayerTableRecord = New LayerTableRecord()


                    '' assign the Layer a Name
                    acLyrTblRec.Name = HALayerName

                    '' Assign the Layer a Color
                    acLyrTblRec.Color = Color.FromColorIndex(ColorMethod.ByAci, 130)

                    '' Upgrade the Layer table for write
                    acLyrTbl.UpgradeOpen()

                    '' Append the new layer to the Layer table and the transaction
                    acLyrTbl.Add(acLyrTblRec)
                    acTrans.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(acLyrTblRec, True)
                End Using
            End If

            If acLyrTbl.Has(HALayerName) = True Then
                Using acLyrTblRec As LayerTableRecord = New LayerTableRecord()

                    '' assign the Layer a Name
                    acLyrTblRec.Name = HALayerName + sLayerSup & NSup

                    '' Upgrade the Layer table for write
                    acLyrTbl.UpgradeOpen()

                '' Append the new layer to the Layer table and the transaction
                acLyrTbl.Add(acLyrTblRec)
                acTrans.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(acLyrTblRec, True)

                    '' Save the changes and dispose of the transaction
                    acTrans.Commit()


                End Using
        End If
        End Using

    End Sub

End Class

This is off the top of my head but it should work.  Its pseudo code but basically start with your base name and add an index to it until the layer table no longer has that name.  The trick is to keep the original name untouched to use as a base point.

 

layerName = "C-WATR-PIPE-6"
tempName = layerName
index = 1
While Not acLyrTble.Has(tempName)
     tempName = layerName + index
     index++
End While

database.CreateLayer(tempName)

Here is a complete method that is working.  Note that there was an issue with my pseudo code.  I had While Not blah blah blah and it should have been while blah blah blah

 

C#

        [CommandMethod("CreateLayerTest")]
        public void CreateLayerTest()
        {
            Document doc = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
            Database db = doc.Database;

            using (Transaction tr = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction())
            {
                LayerTable lt = (LayerTable)tr.GetObject(db.LayerTableId, OpenMode.ForRead);
                string layerName = "C-WATR-PIPE-6IN";
                string tempName = layerName;
                int index = 1;
                while (lt.Has(tempName))
                {
                    tempName = layerName + "-SUP" + index;
                    index++;
                }

                if (index != 1)
                {
                    layerName = layerName + "-SUP" + (index - 1);
                }

                LayerTableRecord ltr = new LayerTableRecord();
                ltr.Name = layerName;
                ltr.Color = Color.FromColorIndex(ColorMethod.ByAci, 130);
                lt.UpgradeOpen();
                lt.Add(ltr);
                tr.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(ltr, true);
                tr.Commit();
            }
        }

 

VB

<CommandMethod("CreateLayerTest")> _
Public Sub CreateLayerTest()
	Dim doc As Document = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument
	Dim db As Database = doc.Database

	Using tr As Transaction = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()
		Dim lt As LayerTable = DirectCast(tr.GetObject(db.LayerTableId, OpenMode.ForRead), LayerTable)
		Dim layerName As String = "C-WATR-PIPE-6IN"
		Dim tempName As String = layerName
		Dim index As Integer = 1
		While lt.Has(tempName)
			tempName = layerName + "-SUP" + index
			index += 1
		End While

		If index <> 1 Then
			layerName = layerName + "-SUP" + (index - 1)
		End If

		Dim ltr As New LayerTableRecord()
		ltr.Name = layerName
		ltr.Color = Color.FromColorIndex(ColorMethod.ByAci, 130)
		lt.UpgradeOpen()
		lt.Add(ltr)
		tr.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(ltr, True)
		tr.Commit()
	End Using
End Sub

It should not matter whether or not you are in regular autocad or a vertical like Civil3d.  The code should work in all.

Hi,

 

You do not need to paste the whole error message, just attentively read the ************** Exception Text ************** part.

 

It looks like you're trying to cast the string "C-WATR-PIPE-6IN-SUP" to double at line 19 of your code.

Sorry.  I wrote the code in C# and converted it to VB for your use and made a small mistake.  The issue is with using the + signs when concatenating strings.  You can use the plus sign when you are concatenating only strings but once you add a non string then you need to use the ampersand.  Or you can just use the .ToString() method on the index variable.

 

If small errors like this are giving you a problem then you should really try to learn more about .Net before programming autocad.  It is a large leap without knowing the basics of .Net.

Updated VB Code with Ampersands instead of Plus signs for concatenating strings.  Tested and working in AutoCAD.

 

        <CommandMethod("CreateLayerTest")> _
        Public Sub CreateLayerTest()
            Dim doc As Document = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument
            Dim db As Database = doc.Database

            Using tr As Transaction = db.TransactionManager.StartTransaction()
                Dim lt As LayerTable = DirectCast(tr.GetObject(db.LayerTableId, OpenMode.ForRead), LayerTable)
                Dim layerName As String = "C-WATR-PIPE-6IN"
                Dim tempName As String = layerName
                Dim index As Integer = 1
                While lt.Has(tempName)
                    tempName = layerName & "-SUP" & index
                    index += 1
                End While

                If index <> 1 Then
                    layerName = layerName & "-SUP" & (index - 1)
                End If

                Dim ltr As New LayerTableRecord()
                ltr.Name = layerName
                ltr.Color = Color.FromColorIndex(ColorMethod.ByAci, 130)
                lt.UpgradeOpen()
                lt.Add(ltr)
                tr.AddNewlyCreatedDBObject(ltr, True)
                tr.Commit()
            End Using
        End Sub

Hi,

 

If you absolutely need to use/learn VB, replace the + operator which is also a concatenation operator in C#, with the VB concatenation operator: &.

 

As Keith said, you should first learn the .NET basics before trying to use the AutoCAD API which not so easy to learn.

That said, I'd add that if you just start learning .NET, learn C# instead of VB because you'll find much more help an good examples in C# than in VB.

If you're just starting out to learn a .NET language, C# is definitely the right choice.
