Version 3.  Soon I might have one that is worth something.
Code: [Select]
using System;

using Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.Runtime;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.DatabaseServices;
using Autodesk.AutoCAD.EditorInput;

using acadApp = Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application;

[assembly: CommandClass (typeof(Test.Xref))]

namespace Test
{
/// <summary>
/// Description of Xref.
/// </summary>
public class Xref
{
[CommandMethod("PrintXrefs3")]
public void XrefList3()
{

Document ActDoc = acadApp.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
Database DocDb = ActDoc.Database;
Editor DocEd = ActDoc.Editor;
using (Transaction DocDbTrans = DocDb.TransactionManager.StartTransaction())
{
BlockTable DocDbBlkTbl = (BlockTable)DocDbTrans.GetObject(DocDb.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead);
XrefGraph DocDbXrGraph = DocDb.GetHostDwgXrefGraph(false);
for (int i = 0; i<DocDbXrGraph.NumNodes; ++i)
{
XrefGraphNode XrGraphNode = DocDbXrGraph.GetXrefNode(i);
if (i != 0)
{
if (!XrGraphNode.IsNested)
{
using (BlockTableRecord BlkTblRec = (BlockTableRecord)DocDbTrans.GetObject(XrGraphNode.BlockTableRecordId,OpenMode.ForRead))
{
string FilePath = HostApplicationServices.Current.FindFile (BlkTblRec.PathName, DocDb, FindFileHint.Default);
DocEd.WriteMessage("\n Main Xref = " + XrGraphNode.Name + "  [ " + FilePath + " ]");
SearchBlockDefinition(BlkTblRec, "   ");
}
}
}
}
}
}
static void SearchBlockDefinition (BlockTableRecord BlkTblRec, string StringSpacer)
{
Document ActDoc = acadApp.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
Database DocDb = ActDoc.Database;
Editor DocEd = ActDoc.Editor;
using (Transaction DocDbTrans = DocDb.TransactionManager.StartTransaction())
{
foreach (ObjectId ObjId in BlkTblRec)
{
BlockReference BlkRef = DocDbTrans.GetObject(ObjId, OpenMode.ForRead) as BlockReference;
if (BlkRef != null)
{
BlockTableRecord NestedBlkTblRec = (BlockTableRecord) DocDbTrans.GetObject(BlkRef.BlockTableRecord, OpenMode.ForRead);
if (NestedBlkTblRec.IsFromExternalReference)
{
string FilePath = HostApplicationServices.Current.FindFile (NestedBlkTblRec.PathName, DocDb, FindFileHint.Default);
DocEd.WriteMessage("\n" + StringSpacer + "Nested: " + NestedBlkTblRec.Name + "  [ " + FilePath + " ]");
SearchBlockDefinition(NestedBlkTblRec, StringSpacer + "   ");
}
}
}
}
}
}
}

Tim,

You're welcome.

Base class -> children - welcome to OOP inheritance and all it's glory :)

Version 3: I don't understand why you have SearchBlockDefinition???????? What's your aim? If it's to simply print out all the xrefs in the drawing, then the xrefgraph will give you all that without having to search the block def...or am I wrong in assuming your intent with this?

Cheers,
Glenn.

Glenn,

  With version 3 I was trying out the XrefGraph, and it does give a lot of information, but it doesn't tell you where the nested xrefs are nested in, at leat I didn't see it.  That is the reason why I did the SearchBlockDefinition.  If I missed something, please point it out.  It was a fun experience trying to code that.

Here is the final version of Version 3.  I has a dialog to show, with a tree view.  I was thinking of other stuff, but I don't think I will mess around with this anymore (this topic that is).

This is very similar to how I've done it in ARX in the past, but it appears the implementation fails when trying to get 'outgoingNode':

Code: [Select]
// Define Command "LX"
[CommandMethod("LX")]
static public void ListXrefsCommand() {
// Get a pointer to the active document...
Document doc = acadApp.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
// From the active document, get a pointer to the doc's dbase...
Database db = doc.Database;
// Get a pointer to the editor...
Editor ed = doc.Editor;

// Get the xref graph for the current dbase...
XrefGraph xrefGraph = db.GetHostDwgXrefGraph(true);
if (xrefGraph.IsEmpty || xrefGraph.NumNodes == 1) {
ed.WriteMessage("\nNo xrefs found.");
return; // No xrefs...
}

for (int i = 0; i < xrefGraph.NumNodes; i++) {
XrefGraphNode xrefGraphNode = xrefGraph.GetXrefNode(i);
if (xrefGraphNode == null) {
ed.WriteMessage("\nError: Failed to get a node on the graph - aborting!");
return;
}
// Is it the root node, which is the current drawing?
// If it IS, then the number of incoming nodes will be 0...
if (xrefGraphNode.NumIn == 0)
continue;
// Continue if it's truly nested...
if (xrefGraphNode.IsNested)
continue;

ed.WriteMessage("\nXref name: {0}", xrefGraphNode.Name);

for (int j = 0; j < xrefGraphNode.NumOut; j++) {
XrefGraphNode outgoingNode = xrefGraphNode.Out(j) as XrefGraphNode;
if (outgoingNode != null)
ed.WriteMessage("-->{0}", outgoingNode.Name);
}//for

}//for

}

This is annoying, unless I'm missing something obvious this morning.........

Thanks for posting Glenn; I don't think I looked at the 'Out' of the xref graph node.  I will have to check it out tomorrow when I get to work.

It doesn't look like it will assign the GraphNodes returned by the 'Out' method as XrefGraphNodes.  I will try to find out some way of doing it today, but figured I would post this in case someone has dealt with it already.

Thanks.
Code: [Select]
[CommandMethod("XrGraphTest")]
static public void GraphTest()

Document ActDoc = acadApp.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument;
Database DocDb = ActDoc.Database;
Editor DocEd = ActDoc.Editor;
using (Transaction DocDbTrans = DocDb.TransactionManager.StartTransaction())
{
BlockTable DocDbBlkTbl = (BlockTable)DocDbTrans.GetObject(DocDb.BlockTableId, OpenMode.ForRead);
XrefGraph DocDbXrGraph = DocDb.GetHostDwgXrefGraph(false);
for (int i = 0; i<DocDbXrGraph.NumNodes; ++i)
{
XrefGraphNode XrGraphNode = DocDbXrGraph.GetXrefNode(i);
DocEd.WriteMessage("\n Name {0}, In {1}, Out {2}", XrGraphNode.Name, XrGraphNode.NumIn, XrGraphNode.NumOut);
if (XrGraphNode.NumOut > 0)
{
OutNodePrint(XrGraphNode);
}
}
}
}
static public void OutNodePrint(XrefGraphNode XrGraphNode)

else

DocEd.WriteMessage("\n   Not found as an \"XrefGraphNode\"!");
}
