Run Sample Application
To run the OdGetGeomEx sample application, please do the following:
Open the terminal and go to the directory where the sample binary file is
built:
For Windows:
<INSTALL_DIR>\exe\<PLATFORM_NAME>\
For Non-Windows OS:
<INSTALL_DIR>/bin/<PLATFORM_NAME>/

A full path to a drawing file.
The extension of the drawing file should be .dwg, .dxf or .dxb.
entity handle
A handle of an entity to dump geometry from.
output file
Optional parameter. A full path to a text file for sending output
instead of the console. If the file does not exist, it will be
created.
If the application executed properly, you will see the input file loading
progress. If an entity with the specified handle is found in the file and the
entity contains geometry, a dump of the entity geometry will appear.
In case you get the "usage" message, check the parameters.
An error message indicates problems with the source file.
