can't create a light in 1.14
can't create a light in 1.14
i'm trying to create a odavelight using dwgdirect 1.14. i suspect i'm missing something, but i can't figure out what. the call to odavelight::createobject is throwing a "not initialized yet" exception.
here's what i'm doing:
odrx_declare_static_module_entry_point(odrecompute dimblockmodule);
odrx_declare_static_module_entry_point(odavemodule impl);
odrx_begin_static_module_map()
odrx_define_static_application("recomputedimblock" , odrecomputedimblockmodule)
odrx_define_static_application("dd_ave", odavemoduleimpl)
odrx_end_static_module_map()
odrxobjectimpl<acadservices> _svcs;
int main(int argc, char ** argv)
{
oddbdatabaseptr pdb;
oddbblocktablerecordptr pcurblock;
odinitialize(&_svcs);
odrx_init_static_module_map();
pdb = _svcs.createdatabase();
pcurblock = pdb->getmodelspaceid().openobject(oddb::kforwrite);
try
{
odavelightptr plight = odavelight::createobject();
}
catch (oderror& e)
{
printf("%s\n", e.description());
}
catch (...)
{
printf("unknown error\n");
}
oduninitialize();
return(0);
}
i have a visual c v6 project if anyone needs to see the whole thing, but i was not successful at uploading it. it's in a 2.3 mb zip file.
any ideas what i might be doing wrong?
thanks,
tim

first thing you missed is loading of ave module.
from odaveex:
code:
/********************************************************************/
/* load the ave extensions. */
/********************************************************************/
{
:drxdynamiclinker()->loadapp("dd_ave");
}
sincerely yours,
george udov
thanks george,
that was the missing piece.
