get list of attribute tags
get list of attribute tags
i'm trying to list down the attribute tags for all the blocks. this is what i'm doing:
oddbblocktablerecordptr pblock = pblkiter->getrecordid().safeopenobject();
oddbobjectiteratorptr pentiter = pblock->newiterator();
for (pentiter->start(); ! pentiter->done(); pentiter->step())
{
oddbentityptr pent = pentiter->entity();
if (pent->iskindof(oddbtext::desc())) {
print(tostring(otext->textstring()));
}
}
otext->textstring() print blank data.
i have another query. is it going to iterate thru all the instances of the block? if yes, this will be a waste of time bcoz i just need the attribute tag name. how can i get only the attribute tag for a block without iterating thru all the instances?
if you look for attribute definitions, then cast entity to oddbattributedefinition, and ask it for 'tag'
