Title: OpenDCL - Hello World
Post by: Grrr1337 on May 28, 2021, 02:59:03 AM
Hi guys,
Decided to try out OpenDCL for the first time:
So I've installed "OpenDCL.Studio.ENU.9.1.3.0.msi" successfuly and "OpenDCL.Runtime.9.1.3.0.msi" (not sure if it was installed).
Then I've created a new project - Untitled.odcl with a modeless dialog and two text buttons.
And unfortunately in my ACAD theres no dcl-Project-Import , nor any dcl-* function definition.

My current goal is to run an OpenDCL project from ACAD.

System specifications: Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit, AutoCAD 2017

Any ideas how could I fix my problem?

Once you get he 'hang' of OpenDCL, there is no going back...

Thanks RGUS,

I was aware of ODCL for years, but just now decided to try it a bit.

The problem seems to be that I didn't initially invoked  (command "_OPENDCL"), which loads the library with the dcl-* function definitions.
However it would be cool just to arxload/netload instead of command-calling. :)

I should've checked earlier under "Application Development" section of ODCL's documentation. (Owen answered me anyway)

The general advice is to use the command call. But if you want to make things hard, don't let this stop you.

Unfortunately I don't have the time, thought someone already did it.
