@include in DCL

How can I set @include in a DCL that is compiled in a VLX, in order not to
set the PATH becouse the VLX can be installed in any directoy.

Thanks

 

Repeating what Luis said...

And for those of you who don't speak Spanish...

When the file is compiled into a VLX file format with "Expert settings" and
the component file defined as a DCL, the path is no longer required for the
utility to find the DCL. Both files become one. Remember if you don't
specify the file as being a DCL it will not find the file or ignore it even
if you've added it as a comonent.

Thanks to both but the point is :

If you have different DCL files for example in one you define labels
in order to change them when you want, and in the others you define the
different dialogs
If you do it without includding the DCL it in the VLX you can use the
INCLUDE,
and it recognize it, but if you don't paste all the DCLS in just one file
when you compile and you include the singles DCL, the compiler doesn't
recognize
the items define in a different DCL file. (at least in Release 2000)

I attached a part of the files to be more clear.

I'm a bit at a lost... Are you trying to create a dialog on the fly...?

If so just generate the code for the other dialog on the fly, and have it
placed in a temp folder...for that you could use one of autocads registry
key's to find a place to hold the temp.dcl.

Now if you're having problems with calling another dialog inbedded, that
just a how you wrote the code issue.

I use to use protobox for my dialog designs, but now moving toward using
ObjectDCL...
