A3DMiscGetEntityTypeMsg

const A3DUTF8Char *A3DMiscGetEntityTypeMsg(A3DEEntityType eType)
const A3DUTF8Char* A3DMiscGetEntityTypeMsg(A3DEEntityType eType)

Returns the name of the entity type.

This text is stored in a global array used also by A3DMiscGetErrorMsg. This function returns a pointer to the global array and therefore it must not be desallocated. Each time the function is called, the global array is updated. For version 2.1, this method declaration was changed to use the same convention applied to all other HOOPS Exchange declarations. For more information, see the description for A3DMiscGetErrorMsg().

Because this function does not return A3DStatus the internal thread safety policy is to wait for the availability of the API.
