Topic: Lisp Problems in 2010

[Luke]

This code was written with a ton of assistance from ronjonp & CAB... http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?topic=20863.0

The intent is to go into any of my drawings and with 1 click of a button it will print all my 8-1/2 x 11 title blocks.

Worked just fine in 2006 but now will not with 2010.

Error I get is

; error: no function definition: nil

Any help is appreciated.

[Andrea]

is your Default Windows System Printer.pc3 exist ?

[Luke]

Yes it is.  

None of the lisps work, regardless of printer.  I think it is a problem with the code before the command "-plot"

[Andrea]

Yes it is. 

None of them lisps work, regardless of printer.  I think it is a problem with the code before the command "-plot"

strange...the code work fine for me..

[Luke]

in 2010?

[Andrea]

yes...

In fact...the problem is on the script routine..not the code above

[Luke]

OK so in 2006 I setup all the machines in the office and went through the routine a million times. 

Maybe now in 2010 I'm forgetting a simple step???

1) I pointed my support path to look at the folder where the LCC_Autoplots.lsp file is saved
2) I appload the LCC_Autoplots.lsp file
3) I insert the title block
4) I click the button with the applicable macro or enter at the command line

Code: [Select]

autoplotdell17100811model
and i get on the command line ; error: no function definition: nil

Anybody see something I'm missing?
Is it working for everybody else in 2010?

did you try (c:autoplotdell17100811model) ??

[Luke]

Yes I did try that.

That is the macro that is on my custom button and I also tried it on the command line.

Every time I get

[T.Willey]

Define a new error function ( code below ) in the drawing, and then try the command, and then copy/paste the command line info into your next post.  This should give people more info.

Code: [Select]

(defun *error* (msg) (vl-bt))

[Luke]

Command: autoplotdell17100811model
; error: no function definition: nil

Command:
Command: (defun *error* (msg) (vl-bt))
*ERROR*

Command: autoplotdell17100811model

[MP]

just a quick glance but it looks to me like VLAX-ENAME->VLA-OBJECT should be quoted, i.e. 'VLAX-ENAME->VLA-OBJECT

[Luke]

'VLAX-ENAME->VLA-OBJECT

is quoted

The lisp is attached at the beginning on the thread.

??

[Luke]

Andrea I'm not sure what you are asking or suggesting.

I have tried to write lisps and just can not get them.

This code was all written by ronjonp & CAB over a year ago.

Again this lisp work in 2006 but not in 2010.
