Vlax-create-object examples

[jtoverka]

I have already read the help file - vlax-create-object web help

I know you can do the following:

"WScript.Network"

"Scripting.FilesystemObject"

"WbemScripting.SWbemLocator"

"Excel.Application"

"Access.Application"

"Visio.Application"

"Word.Application"

I would like the complete list of objects I can interface with. I understand that any microsoft application can be interfaced with. This has been extremely helpful. How do I find more?

[dlanorh]

Set a variable name to the created object.

This creates a vbscript regex object

(setq regex (vlax-create-object "VBScript.RegExp"))

Then use the vlax- dump-object

      (vlax-dump-object regex T);; The T (true) tells it to list the objects properties and applicable methods
      (vlax-release-object regex);; when finished release the object

You can do all this from the command line. Output from the dump-object method goes to the text screen.

Maybe THIS will help you find program ID's.

        "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\\CLSID\\"
        "\\ProgID"
        (strcase pattern)
    )
)

e.g.

(_FindProjIDs "*objectdbx*") ;; I don't have 3D max

>>

(
    "ObjectDBX.AxDbDocument.17"
    "ObjectDBX.AxDbDocument.18"
    "ObjectDBX.AxDbDocument.19"
    "ObjectDBX.AxDbDocument.20"
)

It appears that this information is stored within the registry and that this AutoLISP routine finds this information. Thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction.
