In the early days the DWG file format was changing with pretty much every release, but while the format change for AutoCAD 2013, it did not change again until AutoCAD 2018, despite yearly releases of the program. So, the same file format was used for AutoCAD 2013, AutoCAD 2014, AutoCAD 2015, AutoCAD 2016 and AutoCAD 2017.https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/parameter_interface/in_output/Thu, 19 May 2022 01:26:15 +0000https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/parameter_interface/in_output/Input/Output Parameters I Input File Name O Output File Name FPATH Font Path LPATH License Path Q Quiet Mode Input File PARAMETER I Purpose This parameter defines the input file name. Note If there is no actual parameter code (it does not begin with a dash “-”), then the first parameter is used as the input file name in its entirety Output File PARAMETER O Purpose This parameter defines the output file name.https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/introduction/intro/Sat, 13 Jul 2024 00:00:00 +0000https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/introduction/intro/Tailor Made Software’s® LinkList 2026™ (also known as LL2025) is a command-line interface application designed to extract information from AutoCAD DWG and DXF files. It can display the information to the screen or save it to Text or XML files. It supports any version of AutoCAD up through AutoCAD 2026 (released March 2025). LinkList 2026 can be installed and utilized on any server that utilizes one of the following operating systems:https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/installation/install_windows/Sun, 22 Mar 2020 15:26:15 +0000https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/installation/install_windows/LinkList 2026 is usually shipped in a ZIP archive. This is because many companies have virus scanning software that will not allow .exe file attachments. You will need to extract the installation program from the Zip archive. The executable is called “LinkList 2026_WBB_NN_MM_PP” (where BB is the type of Windows (32-bit in this case), NN is the major version number, MM is the medium version number and PP is the minor version number - so LinkList 2026 Windows 32-bit V1.https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/installation/install_windows64/Sun, 22 Mar 2020 15:26:15 +0000https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/installation/install_windows64/LinkList 2026 is usually shipped in a ZIP archive. This is because many companies have virus scanning software that will not allow .exe file attachments. You will need to extract the installation program from the Zip archive. The executable is called “LinkList 2026_WBB_NN_MM_PP” (where BB is the type of Windows (64-bit in this case), NN is the major version number, MM is the medium version number and PP is the minor version number - so LinkList 2026 Windows 64-bit V1.https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/parameter_interface/data/Sun, 22 Mar 2020 15:26:15 +0000https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/parameter_interface/data/Data Parameters XML XML Output TXT Text Output JSON JSON Output MYSQL MySQL Output ALL Output All Information LAYOUTS Output Layout Information LAYERS Output Layer Information VIEWS Output View Information XREF Output XRef Information IMAGES Output Raster Reference Information PDF Output PDF Underlay Information TEXT Output Text Information BLOCK Output Block Information for a given Block BLOCKS Output Block Information for all Blocks ENTITIES Output Entity Information METADATA Output Metadata and Header Information ATTRIBUTES Output Attribute Information CHECKCLOSED Checks if ALL polylines are closed LAYERS_ON Process a specific set of layers only XML Output PARAMETER XML Purpose This parameter defines that the output format will be XML.https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/installation/install_linux/Sun, 22 Mar 2020 15:26:15 +0000https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/installation/install_linux/LinkList 2026 for Linux is shipped as a tar.gz file. The 64-bit executable is called “LinkList 2026_L64_NN_MM_PP” (where NN is the major version number, MM is the medium version number and PP is the minor version number - so LinkList 2026 Linux 64-bit V1.00.06 would be LinkList 2026_L64_01_00_06) but you can rename it to whatever you want. After downloading the executable file, transfer it to the directory of your choice. Rename it if you want You may desire to create a system wide link to this executable from the /usr/system/bin or /usr/bin directories.https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/operation/operation/Sun, 22 Mar 2020 15:26:15 +0000https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/operation/operation/You can configure a process on your server that makes use of LinkList 2026 in two ways: process single files or collections of files in a single session use a kron-type application to run LinkList 2026 at set times to scan a particular folder/directory and automatically convert all files loaded into this folder—storing the converted images in a designated destination directory. You should note down a list of files you want to convert, record the exact directory pathways for source and destination directories, and have some idea of which custom parameters you’d like to apply to the conversion process.https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/operation/commandline/Sun, 22 Mar 2020 15:26:15 +0000https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/operation/commandline/The following is the basic LinkList 2026 command syntax: LinkList2020 -i=<INPUT FILE > -i=<OUTPUT FILE > -<PARAMETER> The main elements of every command are (1) the actions, and (2) any parameters that affect the output. All command parameters are preceded by a dash (-). Some parameters will be noted as letters and others will be noted as numbers, while others (such as directory paths) will follow the dash with a space and then a text string—as shown in the previous example.https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/operation/batchfile/Sun, 22 Mar 2020 15:26:15 +0000https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/operation/batchfile/LinkList 2026 does not support wildcards or any other method of converting multiple files at a time. However, it is easy to automate the conversion process using batch files on both Windows and Linux that do support multiple files and processing subdirectories. Windows The following batch file will procesws all DWG files in the current directory and any subdirectories and create an XML file with the extracted content. The batch process calls processFile to convert each dwg file found in the current directory.https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/parameter_interface/mysql/Thu, 19 May 2022 01:26:15 +0000https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/parameter_interface/mysql/ MySQL Parameters PORT MySQL Port USER MySQL User Name PWD MySQL User Password MSDATABASE MySQL Database Name MSDRAWINGS MySQL Drawing Table Name MSLAYERS MySQL Layer Table Name MSLAYOUTS MySQL Layout Table Name MSTEXTITEMS MySQL Text Item Table Name MySQL Port PARAMETER PORT Purpose This parameter defines the port used by MySQL Example -PORT=8000 Default -PORT=3306 MySQL User Name PARAMETER USER Purpose This parameter defines the user name for MySQL Example -USER=RICHARD MySQL User Password PARAMETER PWD Purpose This parameter defines the user password for MySQL Example -PWD=&*#$@97$ MySQL Database Name PARAMETER MSDatabase Purpose This parameter defines the name of the MySQL Database Example -MSDatabase=gaia Default -MSDatabase=drawing MySQL Drawing Table Name PARAMETER MSDrawings Purpose This parameter defines the name of the MySQL Drawing Table Example -MSDrawing=maps Default -MSDrawing=drawings MySQL Layer Table Name PARAMETER MSLayers Purpose This parameter defines the name of the MySQL Layer Table Example -MSLayer=sheets Default -MSLayer=layers MySQL Layout Table Name PARAMETER MSLayouts Purpose This parameter defines the name of the MySQL Layout Table Example -MSLayout=views Default -MSLayout=layouts MySQL Text Item Table Name PARAMETER MSTextItems Purpose This parameter defines the name of the MySQL Text Items Table Example -MSTextItems=text Default -MSTextItems=textitemshttps://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/operation/sampleconversion/Sun, 22 Mar 2020 15:26:15 +0000https://cadviewer.com/linklisttechdocs/operation/sampleconversion/To customize the conversion of any output files, you can type additional parameters following the “-o=” entry. For example, you may want to customize output as detailed here: -- The conversion will extract all content from a .DWG file and save it as an JSON file. linklist2020 -i=<SOURCE_FILE.DWG> -o=<NEW_FILE.JSON> -JSON
