Description

Given an arrowhead name and a database, this function returns the AcDbObjectId of the arrowhead. If pDb is NULL, it uses the working database.

This function can be used to create a built-in arrowhead. If pName is the name of a built-in arrowhead and it does not exist in this database, it will be created and added to the AcDbBlockTable.

If the function succeeds, Acad::eOk is returned. If pName is NULL, Acad::eInvalidInput is returned.

The null string ("") or "." is used to denote the default arrowhead. For these inputs blockId is set to NULL and Acad::eOk is returned.

If pName is not the name of an arrowhead, Acad::eInvalidKey is returned.
