Basic Entity Accessors, std-gettype,... | ![]() ![]() |
These functions are the general entity property accessors, requiring only one argument, instead of STD-GETVAL which requires two arguments.
They may be used with entity types, entget-lists or entsel picklists.
Implementated as (STD-GETVAL <group-number> ele)
Note
The implementation calls STD-ENTGET on ename or entsel arguments which uses an entget caching mechanism, because ENTGET is usually slow. But this speed gain may fool return values on deleted entities.
ele: Either an entity type, entget-list or entsel picklist.
Dependent on the dxf group. Either a string or a number or nil.
None. It may set an internal *ENTGET-CACHE* symbol, but direct access is forbidden.
