Iterate occurrences of title blocks

Hi Mhawley1 ,

When iterating through the title block occurrences, note that $lTitleBlockOcc returns a DboOccurrence object. Therefore, you cannot directly use methods like GetValueString, which belong to the DboDisplayProp class.

To retrieve a property such as Name, Rev, etc., you can use:

set lProp [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString "Name"]
set lname [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString]
$lTitleBlockOcc GetEffectivePropStringValue $lProp $lname

Similarly, you can retrieve other property values using their respective names.
To modify a property, use the SetEffectivePropStringValue method in the same way.

Hope this helps!

Yep that allowed me to get the rev's of the title block . THANK YOU !!!! 

proc iterate_title_block {pInstOcc} {


global lStatus

set lTitleBlockOccIter [$pInstOcc NewChildrenIter $lStatus $::IterDefs_TITLEBLOCKS]

#get the first child TitleBlock occurrence
set lTitleBlockOcc [$lTitleBlockOccIter NextOccurrence $lStatus]
set lNullObj NULL
while { $lTitleBlockOcc!= $lNullObj} {

# placeholder: do your processing on $lTitleBlockOcc
puts $lTitleBlockOcc

set lname [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString]
puts " right before rev"
#can not run
set lProp [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString "RevCode"]
set lname [DboTclHelper_sMakeCString]
$lTitleBlockOcc GetEffectivePropStringValue $lProp $lname
puts [DboTclHelper_sGetConstCharPtr $lname]
puts $lname

#get the next child TitleBlock occurrence
set lTitleBlockOcc [$lTitleBlockOccIter NextOccurrence $lStatus]
# puts $lTitleBlockOcc

}
