Back to Methods Reference

Gets an AcadState object to monitor the state of AutoCAD from out-of-process applications.

Signature

VBA : RetVal = object.GetAcadState()

VL : RetVal = (vla-GetAcadState object)

(vla-GetAcadState applic)

• Object : Application
  The object or objects this method applies to.

• RetVal : AcadState
  An object containing an IsQuiescent property used to monitor the state of AutoCAD.

Remarks

It is recommended that you call this method immediately after acquiring the AutoCAD appplication object. This is the best opportunity to catch AutoCAD in a quiescent state.

(defun c:al-getacadstate ()

(vl-load-com)

(setq applic (vlax-get-acad-object))

(setq state (vla-GetAcadState applic))

(princ state)
