RE: [nv-l] Display created objects with the API

["Allison, Jason \(JALLISON\)" <JALLISON@arinc.com>]

Like this:

**obj_id** = OVwDbCreateObjectByHostname("10.1.50.1");
map = OVwGetMapInfo();
symid = OVwCreateSymbol( map, map->root_submap_id, **object_id**, 
ovwSWorkstationComputer, "test", ovwUnknownStatus,ovwSymbolStatusSource,

NULL, ovwNoSymbolFlags );

How is your code compiling?

The code below creates a symbol to an already created object.  I don't
know what the issue with your code is, the only glaring difference would
be that you need to use some of your created object properties in the
creation of your symbol.  Also, you may want to add some error checking
so that you can see exactly what your error is.

Good luck,

              // Create a new Symbol for this object on the Ack Map
              new_symbol_id =
                OVwCreateSymbol(map,
                                ack_submap_id,
                                object_list->objects[i].object_id,
                                ack_symbol_info->symbol_type,
                                ack_symbol_info->symbol_label,
                                ack_symbol_info->symbol_status,
                                ack_symbol_info->status_source,
                                NULL,
                                ovwMergeDefaultCapabilities);

              if (OVwIsIdNull(new_symbol_id)) {
                printf("monitor_ackCB - OVwCreateSymbol failed: %s\n",
                        OVwErrorMsg(OVwError()));
              } // end OVwIsIdNull

Hi,

I use Netview 7.1.3 Windows 2000 server

I use the following code to create an object and it symbol, but when I 
open the netview
console is not displayed! any clue?

obj_id = OVwDbCreateObjectByHostname("10.1.50.1");
map = OVwGetMapInfo();
symid = OVwCreateSymbol( map, map->root_submap_id, object_id, 
ovwSWorkstationComputer, "test", ovwUnknownStatus,ovwSymbolStatusSource,

NULL, ovwNoSymbolFlags );   

thanks,

Fernando
