    Hi all,

    I have a SKILL question: How do I convert a string or integer to a
    database object?

    I am using IPC : a SKILL process and a C++ program made with itkDB.
    The problem: in SKILL I get either an integer : 123456789 or a string:
    "db:123456789" for a layout shape.
    Again, how do I convert this (integer/string) to a SKILL database
    object?

    Best,
    Vlad

    Vlad,

    It is not possible and is answered here:

    Even if you are able to find the dbObject id from the print name, you
    will not be able to refer that object from the c++ program as it would
    be running in a separate process.
