axlCompileDesign

archive
archive over 17 years ago

we create DRA file with some information in a special layer for our package symbols.

on this layer we add a frame, with some texts, informations, dimensions, etc...

we save the DRA file with all these informations but we need the PSM to be saved without that.

I wrote a little routine that makes some checks on the dra file, removes the whole documentation layer and then saves the psm.

It works in 15.7 but in 16.01, the axlCompileSymbol fails. There is a database corruption error message.

What I have to add to the skill code to avoid what is shown on the attached file?

Thanks for any help

    Do you have a recent Hotfix?
    I run similar functioins in 16.01 without a problem:

    layer = "PACKAGE GEOMETRY/DRAWING_INFO"
    findTypes = '("SHAPES", "LINES", "TEXT")
    axlClearSelSet()
    axlSetFindFilter(?enabled append(list("noall", "invisible"), findTypes), ?onButtons cons("noall", findTypes))
    axlAddSelectAll()
    axlDeleteObject(setof(obj, axlGetSelSet(), obj ->layer == layer))
    axlDeleteObject(axlLayerGet(layer))
    axlCompileSymbol()

    Cheers, Dave
