setplotcfgname: plot device name can't be set any more
setplotcfgname: plot device name can't be set any more
hi,
the following code snipped works with dwgdirect 1.14.02.00, but not with dwgdirect 2.1.00.00:
...
odstring splotname("plot settings");
oddbplotsettingsptr pnewplot;
oddbplotsettingsvalidator* pplotvalidator = m_pdb->appservices()->plotsettingsvalidator();
pnewplot = oddbplotsettings::createobject();
pnewplot->setplotsettingsname(splotname.c_str());
// set example.pc3
pplotvalidator->setplotcfgname(pnewplot, "example.pc3");
// verify that example.pc3 was set
odstring splotcfgname = pnewplot->getplotcfgname();
...
with dwgdirect 1.14.02.00, splotcfgname is set to "example.pc3" as expected,
with dwgdirect 2.1.00.00, splotcfgname is set to "none".
is this a bug?
look at mfcapp pagesetup dialog for your system device list. you cannot set example.pc3, it must be in device list.
how can a pc3 file be added to the device list?

thank you for answering so far.
how can a pc3 file be added to the device list? i only found plotdevicelist which receives the device list. is there also a function which sets the list or adds an item?
pc3 files are not supported as printer devices yet. but you can add next code to the end of
odplotsettingsvalidatorpeimpl::getdevicelist(odarr ay<odstring> &pdevicelist)
pdevicelist.push_back(odstring("example.pc3"));
it add example.pc3 to device list. secont point is inside
odplotsettingsvalidatorpeimpl::getmedialist(const odstring &devicename, odarray<psvpaperinfo> &pmedialist)
{
if (devicename == "example.pc3")
{
psvpaperinfo pi;
// fill to something pi
pmedialist.push_back(pi);
return;
}
....
}
thank you for the hint.
by using plotsettingsvalidatormodule, the "example.pc3" can be added to the device list.
nevertheless, setplotconfigname fails, the return value is != eok.
are there any other modules nessary? with odamfcapp, the new device name can be set and saved, but i can't see why setplotconfigname fails in 'my' application.
hi
please, make small test. if getdevicelist return only none&dwf devices - you should load validator module. if it returns system printers also, but without your .pc3 - try to call refreshlists. also paper list for example.pc3 must not be empty.
