dictnext pointer

[mataeux]

should i worry about using dictnext too much?

because autocad keeps a pointer for each dicitonary, when would i notice performance issues if i started dictnext on an unlimited amount of extension dictionaries. should i rewind each pointer when i'm finished?

has anyone experienced this situation?

thanks,
matt

Just like tblnext you rewind it in the first call. The "pointer" is only for your AutoLisp usage. Don't worry about it, except as noted.
