NIL value not allowed

[Atwist]

Hello,

I have a piece of programming designed with your help, I am getting an error message when I use the check boxes.
I understand that the check boxes are not allowed to be empty, but I do not use all the checkboxes.
Did the check boxes to "indeterminate", I think this is good.

Code (autolisp) Select Expand


(defun c:cadtool_Main_TextButton1_OnClicked (/)
(dcl_Project_Unload "Cadtool" T)
(if (= (dcl_Control_Getvalue cadtool_Main_Chbpurbloc) 1)
        (command "-purge" "B" "*" "N")
)
(if (= (dcl_Control_Getvalue cadtool_Main_Chbpurdim) 1)
(command "-purge" "D" "*" "N")
)
(if (= (dcl_Control_Getvalue cadtool_Main_Chbpurlay) 1)
(command "-purge" "LA" "*" "N")
)
(if (= (dcl_Control_Getvalue cadtool_Main_Chbpurlt) 1)
(command "-purge" "LT" "*" "N" "")
)
(if (= (dcl_Control_Getvalue cadtool_Main_Chbpurmat) 1)
(command "-purge" "MA" "*" "N" "")
)

Your problem is the use of (dcl_Project_Unload "Cadtool" T). After this line the controls in the form no longer exist and (dcl_Control_Getvalue cadtool_Main_Chbpurbloc) etc. will fail.

Try this instead:

Code (autolisp) Select Expand

(defun c:cadtool_Main_TextButton1_OnClicked ( / purBlockP purDimP)
  ; (dcl_Project_Unload "Cadtool" T) ; Don't do this!
  (if (= (dcl_Control_Getvalue cadtool_Main_Chbpurbloc) 1)
    (setq purBlockP T)
  )
  (if (= (dcl_Control_Getvalue cadtool_Main_Chbpurdim) 1)
    (setq purDimP T)
  )
  ; etc.
  (dcl_Form_Close cadtool_Main)
  (if purBlockP
    (command "-purge" "B" "*" "N")
  )
  (if purDimP
    (command "-purge" "D" "*" "N")
  )
  ; etc.
)

Thanks Roy,

I will try this

I made this, but I still get the error.
With Vlisp looked but it gives no error.
Personally I do not where the error is now

I have built a quick test using my suggestion. The attached files work for BC12.2.17+ODCL7.0.0.6.

Sorry even now I get the error message

Did you put the control variables in your function inside statement into local variables?

[Atwist]

I have used the lisp and odcl from post # 5.

[XDCAD]

Your error reason is the control variable is NIL, so

You check error control variable name, and then see the variable is in your LISP program other function definitions, give it a local variable declarations. If the local variable declaration, then the external control variable is not transfer function inside.
