[Change active document]

Is there a way for changing the active document?

 

Most functions in the SDK are based on the current active drawing. I want to create a function which needs handles to some specific different files and I have to switch between them often. Calling "OpenDocumentPath" opens a document and sets the document to the active document. Doing this again will change the document either. But how will I come back to the "older" document? I tried to save handles to both document header objects, but this wont work proper. I can request the active document with "GetActiveDocument" but I cannot find a function like "SetActiveDocument" and using "OpenDocumentPath" again also don't work. Also the object VWDocument doesn't look usable (There is a typo in the function name either) and I cannot pass a handle or IFileIdentifierPtr. 

 

What can I do, I have no idea?

Ok thank you.

Hi Nicolas,

 

thank you very much for your help. In the meantime I was already in contact with ComputerWorks and they sent me a link for downloading the actualized SDK. I could compile everything new and now it seems to working as expected. Ok, weekend is safe 😉

Does that mean, that there are breaking changes to the SDK during one version? Where do I get an updated SDK for that?

I have some own plugins written in c++ which have been working without any problems. Since last update to Build 448893 my Plugins are crashing.

 

This is from the macOS crashreport:

This is the relevant code:

 

EObjectEvent BeamObjectEventSink::Recalculate()
{
	if(fhObject==NULL || VWParametricObj::IsParametricObject(fhObject)==false)return kObjectEventError;

	VWParametricObj obj( fhObject ); // This line is crashing
	
  ...
}

 

I have no Idea, what is wrong...
