Example of Working with the Layout Dictionary Object

This example demonstrates working with the layout dictionary object for adding, renaming, deleting, modifying, and printing layout objects. This example uses a console menu that represents the following operations: printing a list of the accessible layouts [L], printing specific properties of all layouts contained in the dictionary [P], printing a list of the associated blocks [B], exposing predefined layouts [E], creating a new layout and adding it in the dictionary [A], renaming an existing layout [N], setting a layout to be active [S], switching the current layout tab [T], displaying the system variable information [V], deleting an existing layout [D], and modifying the specific properties of a selected layout [M].

The ModifyLayouts() function requires a pointer to the database object in which it manipulates the layouts. The function organizes a loop that inquires about the operation code and uses the switch statement to select whether the case must be performed. The function processes user actions in the loop until the user selects the [Q] operation. The function uses the PrintLayoutProperties() function for displaying the specific properties of a layout object, the ModifyLayoutProperties() function for modifying the properties of an existing layout object, and the EntryRecordName() function for entering the layout name and checking whether this name is correct and exists or is absent from the dictionary. The function obtains the smart pointer to the layout dictionary using the getLayoutDictionaryId() method of the passed database object. Before the loop, the function declares a smart pointer to the iterator and a smart pointer to the layout object.

When the user selects [L], the function displays a list of the layout names that are accessible in the dictionary. The function uses an iterator for traversing through the dictionary and the name() method of the iterator for displaying the name of each layout object to which the iterator refers.

When the user selects [P], the function prints the specific properties of all layout objects contained in the dictionary. The function uses an iterator for traversing through the dictionary and the getObject() method of the iterator for getting the smart pointer of the layout object to which the iterator refers. The function displays the common object properties using the PrintObjectProperties() function and the specific layout properties using the PrintLayoutProperties() function. To traverse through the dictionary, the function creates a new iterator for each traverse using the newIterator() method, organizes a loop if the traverse is not completed using the done() method, moves the iterator to the next layout object using the next() method, and gets the pointer to each layout instance using the getObject() method of the iterator and get() method of the smart pointer.

When the user selects [B], the function displays a list of the block names that are associated with layouts. The function obtains the smart pointer to the block table object in which blocks are stored using the getBlockTableId() method of the passed database object. The function uses an iterator for traversing through the block table, the getRecord() method of the iterator for getting a smart pointer of the block record object from the block table, the isLayout() method of the block record object for checking whether this block is associated with a layout, the getName() method of the block record object for displaying its name, and the getLayoutId() method of the block record object for getting the ID of the associated layout object. The function uses the AboutDbObject() function for displaying information about associated objects using its object IDs.

When the user selects [A], the function inquires about the layout name using the EntryRecordName() function. The name must be absent from the dictionary because the dictionary cannot contain duplicate names. The function passes the kMustAbsent value as an argument for checking the new name. If the entered name is correct and is absent, the function suggests two variants for creating a new layout:

  • When the operation is [a], the function calls the static pseudo-constructor of the layout object, assigns the specified name using its setLayoutName() method, adds the created layout object in the dictionary, and specifies the same name for it as the key using the setAt() method of the dictionary object. Then the function calls the static pseudo-constructor of the block record object to be associated with the new layout object, assigns the specified name using the setName() method of the block, and adds the created block record in the block table using the add() method of the block table object. Next the function sets the tab order for the new layout using its setTabOrder() method and countLayouts() method of the database object and associates the new layout object with the new block record object using the setBlockTableRecordId() method of the layout object, passing to it the ID of the new block record object and the setLayoutId() method of the block record object passing to it the ID of the new layout object.
  • When the operation is [A], the function uses the createLayout() method of the database object, passing to it the entered name. The createLayout() method creates the new layout and new block and associates them together. The function uses the try…catch statement to catch exceptions when the object is added. If the addition is successful, the function goes to the [L] operation for printing the layout list. If an exception occurs, the function displays an error message and breaks to the console menu.

When the user selects [N], the function inquires about the name of the existing layout object to be renamed and prompts for a new name using the EntryRecordName() function. The first name must exist in the dictionary; the function passes the kMustExist value as an argument for checking the entered name. The second name must be absent from the dictionary because it cannot contain duplicates; the function passes the kMustAbsent value as an argument for checking the new name. If both names are correct, the function suggests two variants for renaming:

  • When the operation is [n], the function calls the setLayoutName() method, passing to it the new name as an argument. This method also changes the dictionary key of the layout object.
  • When the operation is [N], the function calls the renameLayout() of the database object, passing to it the old name and new name as arguments. The function uses the try…catch statement to catch exceptions when the object changes names. If an exception occurs, the function displays an error message and breaks to the console menu.

When the user selects [T], the function requests the layout type and prompts: M-model or P-paper. The function calls the setTILEMODE() method of the database object and passes to it a True value if the user enters 'M' or a False value if the user enters 'P'. After setting, the function checks and displays the current layout type using the getTILEMODE() method of the database.

When the user selects [E], the function displays the current active layout object using the currentLayoutId() method and the block record object using the getActiveLayoutBTRId() method of the database object. These methods return the object IDs. The function gets smart pointers using the safeOpenObject() method and displays the names using the getName() and getLayoutName() methods.

When the user selects [S], the function inquires about the name of the existing layout object which should be active using the EntryRecordName() function and passes to it the kMustExist value as an argument for checking the name. If the entered name is correct, the function gets the ID of the layout object using the getAt() method, calls the setCurrentLayout() method of the database object, passing to it the ID as an argument, and goes to the [E] operation. The setCurrentLayout() method makes the specified layout active and switches the layout type for TILEMODE if it is necessary.

When the user selects [D], the function inquires about the name of the existing layout object to be deleted using the EntryRecordName() function. The name must exist in the dictionary; the function passes the kMustExist value as an argument for checking the entered name. If the entered name is correct and exists, the function suggests two variants for deleting:

  • When the operation is [d], the function calls the remove() method of the dictionary object and passes to it the name as an argument to remove the layout object from the dictionary. The removed layout object continues to exist outside of the dictionary. To delete the removed object, the function uses the safeOpenObject() method to get a smart pointer to it and calls the erase() method of the object, passing to it a True value as an argument. After deletion, the function checks the result returned by the erase() method. If the result is non-zero, the function displays an error message using the getErrorDescription() method of the host object.
  • When the operation is [D], the function calls the deleteLayout() method of the database object, passing to it the layout name and uses the try…catch statement to catch exceptions when the object is deleted.

When the user selects [M], the function inquires about the name of the existing layout object to be modified using the EntryRecordName() function. The name must exist in the dictionary; the function passes the kMustExist value as an argument for checking the entered name. If the entered name is correct and exists, the function gets a smart pointer to the layout object specified by the name using the getAt() method and opens it in write mode. Then, the function calls the ModifyLayoutProperties() function that organizes its own console menu for modifying the specific properties of the specified layout object.

When the user selects [V], the function displays the predefined layout settings using methods of the database object:

  • The getModelSpaceId() method returns the ID of the model space block record object.
  • The getPaperSpaceId() method returns the ID of the paper space block record object.
  • The getEXTMIN() and getEXTMAX() methods return the minimum and maximum extents of the current model layout.
  • The getPEXTMIN() and getPEXTMAX() methods return the minimum and maximum extents of the current paper layout.
  • The getLIMMIN() and getLIMMAX() methods return the lower-left and upper-right limits of the current model layout.
  • The getPLIMMIN() and getPLIMMAX() methods return the lower-left and upper-right limits of the current paper layout.
  • The getLIMCHECK() method returns the outside limits status for current model layout.
  • The getPLIMCHECK() method returns the outside limits status for current paper layout.

To get the current active layout, this operation uses the getSysVar() method, passing to it the "CTAB" name. The function uses the AboutDbObject() function for printing information about objects obtained as an object ID.

When the user selects [Q], the function ends the loop and returns to the calling function.
