DXF code of 'GROUP' object

[Anonymous]

Hello,
Anybody can help me to get DXF code of 'GROUP' object ?
I tried to use below code to select only Group object in drawing but failed.

gpCode(0) = 0
dataValue(0) = "GROUP" ==> Is that correct ?

Regards
Dohkim

For what its worth, I posted a similar question a few months back, and got the same amount of answers 😕 (none)

I ended up looping thru the groups collection and getting the handles to the entities I was looking for.

I believe groups are treated like selection sets; they arent actual entities. But it would be real nice if someone would post otherwise, and prove me wrong 🙂

Groups are objects that hold the objectIds of all
of the entities in that group.  And, each entity in the group has a soft
pointer reference to the group object.  So, you are correct that group
objects are not themselves entities.

Iterating through the items in a Group gives you the
entities in the group. Unless you need to supply them
to another command (verses doing something with
them in your own code), there's no need to select the
group.
