Where is the documentation for Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop?

2.2k Views Asked by At

I've looked in the ObjectARX SDK, in AutoCAD Help, on the Autodesk Developer Network, in SO and the broader internet, but I can't find documentation for the Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop dll, only documentation for the in-process .NET API.

For example, there's plenty of info about the Application object:

http://docs.autodesk.com/ACD/2013/ENU/index.html?url=files/GUID-4E1AAFA9-740E-4097-800C-CAED09CDFF12.htm,topicNumber=d30e712496

...but no similar information about the AcadApplication object exposed by Autodesk.AutoCAD.Interop. Where can I find detailed information about the interop API?

There are some examples of using it to start AutoCAD:

How to close a file in Autocad using C# keeping acad.exe running?

...etc. But I'm looking for object graphs, method descriptions, etc. for the interop API, i.e., the kind of information available for the in-process .NET API.

I asked this on the Autodesk forums and learned that the documentation for the interop dll's can be found by looking up the documentation for the old VBA interface.
