Hi,
Why would you like to copy an existing library part? The copyright section is there for a reason![Smile]()

I am trying to create a library from an existing one. What I did was just get all the information from the "source" library then copy (and modify) them. I am able to do this but limited to some section. Based on the documentation, ACAPI_LibPart_GetSection() will return APIERR_BADPARS for pictures, macros, etc. I also followed the example given at the documentation of ACAPI_LibPart_GetSectionList(), modify it so that I will create a "destination" library. When I called ACAPI_LibPart_GetSection(), I got APIERR_BADPARS and APIERR_NOLIBSECT on some of the sections. This means that the list that I got form ACAPI_LibPart_GetSectionList() have a "non-existing" section; or (as I interpret it) the section exists but the sectionHdl and sectionStr are not valid. So how am I to copy [, create, and/or modify] these sections: Sections with APIERR_BADPARS: * API_SectAncestors * API_SectCalledMacros * API_SectInfoGIF Sections with APIERR_NOLIBSECT: * API_SectMigrTable * API_SectCust_Keywords ('KWRD', this section is part of the section list but not part of the definitions, #define API_Sect...) * API_SectCopyright EDIT I am also unable to find how to set/get values for the LibPart: * Details > Author (see EDIT (2015 Aug 24)) * Details > Compatibility Options... (see EDIT (2015 Aug 19)) EDIT (2015 Aug 19) I am now able to copy "Details > Compatibility Options..." via:
EDIT (2015 Aug 24) Based on the binary data of the library, the "Details > Author" is part of the copyright section. But since there is an error, this is not saved. I also tried saving this binary data as GSHandle and call save section API, but still error. |
