Annotation: How to get a sel_item for geometry selected by a ME10 Macro

Hello,

I have a ME10 macro that selects all geometries from a view and returns the pointer and geometry properties as a list to LISP.
The pointer corresponds to the return value of the sd-get-annotator-reference function.

To continue working with the elements, I need the sel_items for the pointers. But I can't find an inverse function for sd-get-annotator-reference.
So far I have implemented this by using get_selection in LISP to get all sel_items and building a new list in which the pointers are added using sd-get-annotator-reference.
I then use this list to add the sel_items to the list returned by ME10. However, the last process is quite slow.

Does anyone have an idea how to do this efficiently?

a) there is no function sd-annotator-reference-to-sel-item available.

the last process is quite slow.

b) This was discussed on cad.de, where it was determined that the cause of the low performance was the LISP implementation and program structure.
