Lathetool

[keta]

Hi,

 

first question:

after I add the last line (TpMainToolMgr.GetMainLatheToolList( ).Add(tl)

from my example below, then mastercam does not load my c-hook dll. After I remove

the line, all works fine. Have you a idea?

 

TlToolLathe tl;

tl.SetDescription("test tool");

...

TpMainToolMgr.GetMainLatheToolList( ).Add(tl);

 

 

Second question:

If I add new lathe tools by ltool_manager() call (see below) and after I try to read

the tools (TpMainToolMgr.GetMainLatheToolList( ).ToolByID(TTLIDs.at(nCnt), the tools are

always empty.

 

Add tool:

ltool_manager(&tl, TLMGR_ADD, &eptr, &succf);

 

Try to read tools:

TlIDList& TTLIDs = TpMainToolMgr.GetMainLatheToolList( ).GetToolIDs( );

for(unsigned int nCnt=0 ; nCnt<TTLIDs.size() ; ++nCnt) {

TlToolLathe& TLLathe = TpMainToolMgr.GetMainLatheToolList( ).ToolByID(TTLIDs.at(nCnt));

}

 

 

Version is SDK X5 (file date 18.10.2010)

Not sure what you mean by -> "then mastercam does not load my c-hook dll"

 

 

This worked for me (I am running X5-MU1, and no, I do not know if that makes a difference)

 

void LatheTool()
{
TlToolLathe tl;
tl.SetDescription("test tool");	
       // What is happening here?
TlObjectID tlID = TpMainToolMgr.GetMainLatheToolList().Add(tl);

// Now see if the new tlID exists in the TTLIDs list...
TlIDList& TTLIDs = TpMainToolMgr.GetMainLatheToolList( ).GetToolIDs( ); 
for(unsigned int nCnt=0 ; nCnt<TTLIDs.size() ; ++nCnt) {
	TlToolLathe& TLLathe = TpMainToolMgr.GetMainLatheToolList( ).ToolByID(TTLIDs.at(nCnt));
}
}
