Topic: Is there a trick to editor.Command()

[nobody]

Okay...so this is a pretty noobish question but I've avoided using ed.Command() forever simply because I have always got the error in the attached image. Can someone please clue me in to what reference I need to load and what "using" i should be using Thank you!

Means Editor Object does not contain a method named Command.
Your using older version or missing a reference, or  never created a extension method for it.

Right...need to know which reference

I thought maybe interop or interop common but guess those aren't it.

Code: [Select]


  internal const char ESC = '\x1B';                                                     
  internal const char RETURN = '\xD';                                                 

  internal static void SendCommandToCommandLine(string Command, bool Escape = true) {
    string EscapeString = string.Empty;
    if (Escape == true) { EscapeString = ESC.ToString() + ESC.ToString(); }
    Autodesk.AutoCAD.ApplicationServices.Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.SendStringToExecute(EscapeString + Command + RETURN, true, false, true);
  }

Thanks! I'll give that a shot

Is Editor.Command() perhaps not a 2014 item?

[Jeff_M]

The Editor Command() and CommandAsync() methods were introduced in the 2015 API. So if coding for, or targeting, an earlier release you won't have those methods available.
