How to read lines from Blocks in Kabeja?

Question

I am using Kabeja to read data from an DXF file. I can read all the Lines and Polylines without any issues. However, I am not able to find the Lines from a Block. I can find the Block along with the Insert entity that places the Block in the drawing. But my goal is to read the Lines that build a Block in the DXF file. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't know Kabeja, but this might help you:

The "insert" entity is a reference to the Block definition inside The Blocks section of the DXF (The BlockTable). So to find the lines inside a block definition You need to read The Definition of that block.
