You need to call these two functions

 

acdbCurDwg
color=#ff0000>()->setDimstyle
color=#ff0000>(m_dimstyleId
color=#ff0000>);


acdbCurDwg
color=#ff0000>()->setDimstyleData
color=#ff0000>(m_dimstyleId
color=#ff0000>);


m_dimstyleId is the
ObjectId of the dimstyle you want to make current


 


When you are adding the dimstyle record you can use
this way because it gives you the ObjectId of the dimstyle


color=#ff0000>

pCurT

->
color=#880000>add(
color=#4b0082>m_dimstyleId,
color=#4b0082>pDimRecord);
