Description

Returns a selection set or entity name to AutoLISP, depending on the value of the type argument.

The AutoLISP expression that invoked the external function returns the name result as built-in and user-defined AutoLISP functions do.

An external function can make more than one call to value-return functions upon a single kInvkSubrMsg message, but the AutoLISP function returns only the value passed it by the last value-return function invoked.

Parameters

Parameters	Description
aname	Selection set or entity name
type	Pass RTPICKS if aname to specify a selection set or RTENAME if aname to specify an entity

Returns

Returns RTNORM if successful; it returns RTERROR if it fails or if aname is a null pointer.
