AutoCAD.TypedValue

Description

An element of a AutoCAD.TypedValueArray.

This class holds data found in a single resbuf element.

When converting a resbuf to a TypedValue, FlexSim stores the original restype value in the type property. FlexSim then attempts to convert the original resval value to a Variant. If the value cannot be converted, the following occurs:

• The value property is set to null.
• The isOpaque property is set to True (1).
• The original data is stored internally.

In this way, the original data is stored either as a Variant or as an opaque value. This allows you to safely modify an element in a TypedValueArray and write it back to the database.

Properties

isOpaque	True (1) if the data could not be converted to a Variant value, False (0) otherwise.
type	Returns the type of the element.
value	Returns the value of the element. For opaque elements, this property returns null.

Methods

set	Sets the type and value of the element.
