ACAPI_LibPart_RegisterAll only registers the last libPart in the array

Hi All,
I was trying to register a list of libParts, later to create Surfaces using them.

GS::Array<API_LibPart> libParts; for (const auto& location : textureFileNewLocationList) { IO::Location nonConstLocation = location; std::cout<<UNISTR_TO_LIBXLSTR(nonConstLocation.ToDisplayText()) << std::endl; API_LibPart libPart; BNZeroMemory (&libPart, sizeof (API_LibPart)); libPart.typeID = APILib_PictID; libPart.location = &nonConstLocation; libParts.Push (libPart); } err = ACAPI_LibPart_RegisterAll (&libParts);

In the above code textureFileNewLocationList is a array of file locations of images I plan to use. After executing the code, it registers only the last element of the array. In my case I have 55 libParts to register, only 55th have successfully registered.
If I go and check Files → Library and Objects → Library Manager, the box will show one surface got loaded, other 54 were missing.

A manual Reload in the ArchiCAD will load all the libParts

Using ArchiCAD 25

Update
I used below code, which loads the Lib Parts of mine but deletes all other default libraries provided by ArchiCAD

API_LibraryInfo libInfo; IO::Location outputLoc (GetSpecialFolderLocation (API_ApplicationFolderID), IO::Name ("/Users/roni/Library/Application Support/GRAPHISOFT/AutoSave-25-2")); libInfo.location = outputLoc; GS::Array<API_LibraryInfo> lip = {libInfo}; err = ACAPI_Automate (APIDo_LoadLibrariesID, &lip); if (err != NoError) { ACAPI_WriteReport ("Error in APIDo_LoadLibrariesID", true); }

Used below code

for (const IO::Location& location : textureFileNewLocationList) { IO::Location* nonConstLocation = new IO::Location(location.ToDisplayText()); API_LibPart libPart = {}; BNZeroMemory (&libPart, sizeof (API_LibPart)); libPart.typeID = APILib_PictID; libPart.location = nonConstLocation; libParts.Push(libPart); }
