OdDbDatabase::deepCloneObjects Method

Syntax

C++

void deepCloneObjects(const OdDbObjectIdArray& objectIds, OdDbObjectId ownerId, OdDbIdMapping& idMap, bool deferXlation = false);

Parameters

Parameters	Description
const OdDbObjectIdArray& objectIds	[in] Array of object IDs of the objects to be cloned.
OdDbObjectId ownerId	[in] Object ID of owner object.
OdDbIdMapping& idMap	[in/out] ID map.
bool deferXlation = false	[in] Defer translation.

Description

Deep clones a set of objects and appends the clones to the specified owner object.

Remarks

idMap associates the object IDs of the original objects with the object IDs of the newly created clones.

When cloning objects with different owner IDs, a separate call to this function is required for each ownerId. In this case, all but the final call to this function should be made with deferXlation == true. This defers translation until all objects have been cloned.

A deep clone is a clone of the specified objects and everything they own.
