Topic: Basic question relating "methods" (Active X)

Dumping an AECC_Sample_Line I get this results:

Code: [Select]

AECC_SAMPLE_LINE
; IAeccSampleLine: IAeccSampleLine-Schnittstelle
; Eigenschaftswerte:
;   Application (RO) = #<VLA-OBJECT IAeccApplication 0000021ee894f890>
;   Description = ""
.....
; Unterstützte Methoden:
;   ArrayPolar (3)
...
;   IntersectWith (2)
...

I could not find any information about the IntersectWith-method for AECC_Sample_Line, but there is the "common" function "vla-IntersectWith". Based on this example my question is:

Are methods always "common" and supported by some /many / all objects, or are they depending on the particular object (so "vla-intersect" is not the same as "AECC_Sample_Line IntersectWith")??

Thanks for basic lessons

The AEC stuff is derived from base AutoCAD objects, and inherits a number of common properties and methods.  They don't always apply though, so you need the API help for both an object map and details on each.
