vlax-ldata-get and vlax-ldata-put

vlax-ldata-get and vlax-ldata-put this commands are not working in some auto cad

2009 version (vl-registry-read & write function is working). But same commands are working in version 2006 in same P.C

Please can you help?

Consider stepping through your code (F8?) in VLIDE to see where your code breaks. Also verify that the dictionary, key, etc. exist.

(vlax-ldata-get [i]dict [/i][i]key[/i][i] [default-data] [/i][i][private][/i])

When I run following code

(vlax-ldata-put "CADGROUPdict" "5")

; error: no function definition: VLAX-LDATA-PUT

That is correct... look a little more closely at your code. :wink:

When I run following code

(vlax-ldata-[color=blue]get[/color][color=red][b]t[/b][/color] "CADGROUPdict" "5")

; error: no function definition: VLAX-LDATA-GET

You will first need to load the Visual LISP Extensions by evaluating the vl-load-com function.

Type at the command-line (or in the Visual LISP Console):

(vl-load-com)

This only needs to be called once per session.

I recommend you include this line in your ACADDOC.lsp

Lee, note the working functions in the OP, vl-load-com is not the issue here... perhaps the typo noted in my previous post is? *Shrug*

SORRY MY code was

(vlax-ldata-get "CADGROUPdict" "dot")

Anyway I will follow your valuable advises.

Good point, but note that not all VL functions require (vl-load-com)...

I honestly did not know that (aside from vl-load-com itself)... As I too use ACADDOC.lsp to load the VL library, I guess I never really noticed. Thanks for that lil' nugget, Lee!

No worries; did Lee's suggestion of invoking (vl-load-com) correct the issue...?

You're welcome

To clarify:

Function           Requires (vl-load-com)?
------------------------------------------
vlax-*             YES
vla-*              YES
vlr-*              YES
vl-*               NO

I think there are some exceptions, for example, I don't think vlax-for requires vl-load-com, but then you cannot access the Object Model without vl-load-com, so Collections are inaccessible. Similarly, I think some others such as vlax-add/remove-cmd don't require it.

Very neat, Lee... Very neat indeed.

The problem was occurred in my office P.C.

Now I am in home.

I will definitely reply tomorrow.

Thanks very much for both gentlemen.

You spurred me to take this one step further to provide a definitive list...

Ensure (vl-load-com) has not yet been called in the session (i.e. temporarily rename your ACADDOC.lsp).

Then run the following program:

(defun c:VL-Independent ( / file filename )
   
   (setq filename (vl-filename-mktemp nil (getvar 'DWGPREFIX) ".txt"))
   (if (setq file (open filename "w"))
       (progn
           (foreach sym
               (acad_strlsort
                   (vl-remove-if-not
                       (function (lambda ( sym ) (wcmatch (strcase sym) "VL*")))
                       (atoms-family 1)
                   )
               )
               (write-line sym file)
           )
           (close file)
           (startapp "notepad" filename)
       )
   )
   (princ)
)

Returned is a list of all VL functions that do not require (vl-load-com)
