Recently one of my colleague from Product support enquired if it was possible to find fonts and shape files included in a drawing using the eTransmit API. To configure what gets included as dependents when a drawing is added to the TransmittalOperation, it is required to setup the TransmittalInfo.
Here is a sample code that should also fetch the fonts and shape files associated with a drawing using e-Transmit API :
<span>//AcETransmit19.Interop.dll</span><span> </span>
<span>using</span><span> AcETransmit;</span>
[CommandMethod(<span>"DependentFiles"</span><span> )]</span>
<span>static</span><span> <span>public</span><span> <span>void</span><span> DependentFilesMethod()</span></span></span>
<span>{</span>
TransmittalFile tf;
TransmittalOperation to
= <span>new</span><span> TransmittalOperation();</span>
TransmittalInfo ti
= to.getTransmittalInfoInterface();
ti.includeDataLinkFile = 1;
ti.includeDGNUnderlay = 1;
ti.includeDWFUnderlay = 1;
ti.includeFontFile = 1;
ti.includeImageFile = 1;
ti.includeInventorProjectFile = 1;
ti.includeInventorReferences = 1;
ti.includeMaterialTextureFile = 1;
ti.includeNestedOverlayXrefDwg = 1;
ti.includePDFUnderlay = 1;
ti.includePhotometricWebFile = 1;
ti.includePlotFile = 1;
ti.includeUnloadedXrefDwg = 1;
ti.includeXrefDwg = 1;
<span>string</span><span> dwgFile = <span>@"D:\Temp\Sample.dwg"</span><span> ;</span></span>
<span>if</span><span> (to.addDrawingFile(dwgFile, <span>out</span><span> tf) </span></span>
== AddFileReturnVal.eFileAdded)
<span>{</span>
TransmittalFilesGraph tfg
= to.graphInterfacePtr();
TransmittalFile rootTF = tfg.getRoot();
DisplayDependent(rootTF);
<span>}</span>
<span>}</span>
<span>static</span><span> <span>void</span><span> DisplayDependent(TransmittalFile tf)</span></span>
<span>{</span>
<span>int</span><span> numberOfDependents = tf.numberOfDependents;</span>
<span>for</span><span> (<span>int</span><span> i = 0; i < numberOfDependents; ++i)</span></span>
<span>{</span>
TransmittalFile childTF = tf.getDependent(i);
FileType ft = childTF.FileType;
<span>string</span><span> sourcePath = childTF.sourcePath;</span>
Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument.Editor
.WriteMessage(String.Format(
<span>"<span>{</span>0<span>}</span> Dependent <span>{</span>1<span>}</span> - <span>{</span>2<span>}</span>"</span><span> , </span>
Environment.NewLine,
ft.ToString(), sourcePath));
DisplayDependent(childTF);
<span>}</span>
<span>}</span>
