Namespace: Teigha.DatabaseServices
Assembly: TD_Mgd (in TD_Mgd.dll) Version: 24.2.0.0

Syntax

public void ReadDwgFile(
        IntPtr drawingFile,
        bool allowCPConversion,
        string password
)

Public Sub ReadDwgFile ( 
        drawingFile As IntPtr,
        allowCPConversion As Boolean,
        password As String
)

public:
void ReadDwgFile(
        IntPtr drawingFile, 
        bool allowCPConversion, 
        String^ password
)

member ReadDwgFile : 
        drawingFile : IntPtr * 
        allowCPConversion : bool * 
        password : string -> unit

Parameters

drawingFile IntPtr: [in] Pointer to the .dwg file to read.
allowCPConversion Boolean: [in] Flag that specifies whether codepage conversion should occur silently.
password String: [in] Password for a file.

Remarks

Pieces of the drawing are read in only as needed. So, the drawing file is left open until the database object is deleted. The method attempts to open files with read access. The allowCPConversion argument specifies whether to automatically perform a default conversion from the drawing codepage to the system codepage if corresponding files for conversion are not available (which might cause loss of data). If allowCPConversion is false, you are asked if conversion should be performed, otherwise conversion is performed silently.
