I am aware of this page that spells out the basics of settings and how to use get and set functions. I am attempting to write a class that gets and sets the various settings. My issue is that all of these setting basically distill down to five or six functions. For example:
ISldWorks::SetUserPreferenceDoubleValue
ISldWorks::SetUserPreferenceIntegerValue
ISldWorks::SetUserPreferenceStringListValue
ISldWorks::SetUserPreferenceStringValue
ISldWorks::SetUserPreferenceToggle
*or*
IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceDouble
IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceInteger
IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceString
IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceTextFormat
IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceToggle
I am trying to prevent errors by using either the wrong method (ISldWorks vs IModelDocExtension) or trying to set a system setting using the IModelDocExtension function.
Does anybody have any advice on this?
Is ISldWorks::SetUserPreferenceDoubleValue and IModelDocExtension::SetUserPreferenceDouble the exact same function or do they check if the setting is in fact a model or system setting before trying?
How does this work?
