OPM with block attributes

[Anonymous]

Hy,

I made an OPM extension to show block attributes in Property Manager.
Also they are all string - no other type available - it shows the correct
values.
BUT! When I try to update changed values to the Attr, the opening had an
error message
eLockViolation?
Why is it locked when OPM running?
How can I update string values from OPM dialog to a block attribute?

cheers,
Zoltan

Use
acDocManager->lockDocument(acDocManager->document(BlockDefId.database()),
AcAp::kAutoWrite);

Hy,

Thank, it is working!

My next problem with the COM strings:
how can I convert from:
VT_BSTR(&varData)
to:
const char* for
Acad::ErrorStatus setTextString(const char* newText);

cheers,
Zoltan

Hi,

You can use _bstr_t.

Hy,

Yes I found it
This is the final sulution:
_bstr_t bstMyBSTR = (BSTR)varData.bstrVal;
pAttr->setTextString((const char*)(bstMyBSTR));

Cheers,
