C++ Syntax

bool

MKI_ObjectAddTextShort(

const LPCWSTR f_pszText,

bool f_fStaticLength );

Adds a short text data block (MKI_DB_ALL_TEXT) to a previously opened provisional object (see MKI_ObjectOpen). This type of data block is usually used inside dimension objects (MKI_OBJ_D???) and inside comments (MKI_OBJ_COMMENT).

Parameters

Text

[const LPCWSTR] Text to be stored in the text data block. The maximum length of Text is MKI_LENGTH_TEXT_SHORT.

StaticLength

[bool] Indicates whether the text data block should have static length or not. If true, the application will allocate memory for MKI_LENGTH_TEXT_SHORT characters, independent of the length of Text. This allows direct manipulation of that data block without the need to reorganize the object. If false, the application will allocate only as much memory as required to store Text.

Return Value

Returns true if the data block was added successfully. If false is returned, this indicates that the object would be too large after adding this data block.
