pdb->auditdatabase() versus addwgsmellsbad()
pdb->auditdatabase() versus addwgsmellsbad()
in the old version of our app ( using old odtollkit ) addwgsmellsbad() did not report any error on a ac2000 dwg file.
with the new kit :
auditinfo.setfixerrors(false);
auditinfo.setprintdest(oddbauditinfo::kcmdline);
pdb->auditdatabase(&auditinfo);
inumerrors= auditinfo.numerrors();
inumerrors returns 5 with the same dwg file, but no messages are issued on the console.
so i am a little bit confused... as far as i understand, this means that 5 errors have been detected in the dwg file... but which ones ? are they fatal ? etc...
can some one clarify this ?
thanks

addwgsmellsbad() only performed crc verification of some of the sections in the file, and for the database objects--so it was checking only for files that had been corrupted in some manner after they had been saved.
dwgdirect performs a far more extensive audit of the file structure and the database contents, so it is expected that a dwgdirect audit may find more problems than the addwgsmellsbad() function.
if you could either post the dwg file in question here, or send it to , we can look into it and get you more details about the specific errors that are being found in this file.
