For simplicity samples do not contain much of validation code. For production it is strongly recommended to add checks for success of interface query, assumptions about structure of the model etc

Language mapping examples

Below are samples of the same piece of code, which hides the first object in the model in different languages.

Visual Basic 6  (*.frm)

Dim iModel As IModel
Set iModel = m_KernelCADCtrl.GetModel
Dim iSection As ISection
Set iSection = m_iModel.GetSection(0)
iSection.SetVisible False

Visual Basic .NET (*.vb)

Dim iModel As IModel
iModel = m_KernelCADCtrl.GetModel()
Dim iSection As ISection
iSection = iModel.GetSection(0)
iSection.SetVisible(False)

C++  (*.cpp)

IModel* iModel;
iModel = (IModel*)m_KernelCADCtrl.GetModel();
ISection* iSection;
iModel->GetSection(0, &iSection);
iSection->SetVisible(VARIANT_FALSE);

Native Delphi (*.pas)

iModel : IModel;
iSection : ISection;
iModel := m_KernelCADCtrl.GetModel();
iModel.GetSection(0, &iSection);
iSection.SetVisible(true)

Delphi .NET (*.pas)

iModel : IModel;
iSection : ISection;
iModel := m_KernelCADCtrl.GetModel();
iModel.GetSection(0, iSection);
iSection.SetVisible(true)

C# (*.cs)

IModel iModel;
iModel = (IModel)m_KernelCADCtrl.GetModel();
ISection iSection;
iSection = iModel.GetSection(0);
iSection.SetVisible(false);
