The data-model package provides the core classes for interacting with AutoCAD's database and entities. This package mimics AutoCAD ObjectARX's AcDb (Database) classes and implements the drawing database structure that AutoCAD developers are familiar with.

import { AcDbDatabase } from './AcDbDatabase';
import { AcDbSymbolTable } from './AcDbSymbolTable';
/**
 * Symbol table for block table records.
 *
 * This class manages block table records which represent block definitions
 * within a drawing database. Blocks are reusable collections of entities
 * that can be inserted multiple times into a drawing.
 *
 * @example
 * ```typescript
 * const blockTable = new AcDbBlockTable(database);
 * const modelSpace = blockTable.modelSpace;
 * const block = blockTable.getAt('MyBlock');
 * ```
