Hello old friends....
I need a push in the right direction. I wrote my massive Autocad VB6 program years ago (back in the Wonder Llama days) using VB6 exe and a VB6 DLL running "inside" Autocad via the objAcad.GetInterfaceObject method. This resulted in a floating toolbar spearate from Autocad.
Now X years later, I would like to modernize my program a bit and having my toolbar be within Autocad. If possible, I would like to keep most (if not all) of the code done in the VB6 DLL as-is, and have the new toolbar programed in *whatever* it needs to be to communicate with the compiled DLL code.
Is this possible now, and what should I be looking into? Is this ARX and/or .NET programming? I need a little direction to research more on the how-tos. I need to have it secured (a HASP dongle is involved), so I can't use Real VB.
