Archicad C++ API

Is there a faster way to test library objects?

Not applicable
My library is kept in HSF format for ease of use with git, etc. In order to test my changes to the objects, I have to:
* Use LP_XMLConverter to "compile" the library part into GSM
* Use LP_XMLConverter to put my library into an LCF file
* Open Archicad
* Add my LCF in the Library Manager
* Place the object

Also, when I save new changes to the objects, I have to manually remove then re-add the library and load it again. This often presents errors and I just have to close Archicad and do the process again.

Is there a faster way to test objects? I tried copy/pasting between the editor within Archicad and my own editor, but this quickly became tedious.

Hi,

I think Masaki-san (rmasaki here on the forum) has a better solution, PM him for help.

Best, Akos

There is also a plugin for Sublime Text, you could use which would make this much easier
