MKI_CONST_DATABASE_DATA_REF f_rData,

bool f_fInternalDatabase );

Opens a database based on the given data.

Parameters

Data

[MKI_CONST_DATABASE_DATA_REF] Data for the database to be opened. If InternalDatabase is true (loading to internal database) and Data->FileName is set to MKI_CHAR_SYSTEM or is empty then a database file named like the current drawing (the extension is either set to "csv" or "dbf" depending on Data->FileType) is loaded into the internal database. If the name specified in Data->DatabaseName already exists, i.e. a database with the same name has already been opened, then the already existing database is updated only.

InternalDatabase New in Version 2019.0

[bool] Pass true if the database shall be loaded as an internal database or false if the database shall be loaded as an external database.

Return Value

Index of the database if successful, otherwise a negative value is returned.
