Topic: Found some new tools (free)

[bilançikur]

Hope I am in the right place here, otherwise please move..

Just wanted to share this with you guys.
Last year our company switched over to ZWCAD+2014 PRO.
I was not able to run DosLib anymore (*.arx not compatible with ZWCAD).
Too bad, some of my tools can no longer be used.

But recently there has been an updated version of ObjectDCL.
Part of the update is the new ODCL_LM file (lisp module pack and license manager).
I have tried this and it seems that most (if not all) functions work in ZWCAD.
> If this is compatible then it is compatible to AutoCAD as well.

Some functions are very useful;
- Odcl_TRIAL
- Odcl_CopyClip
- Odcl_LockWorkStation

I think this will be a huge competitor of DosLib.
Unfortunately I will have to remake some of my code but it is worth the effort.
The good point is that the ODCL_LM is a Lisp file can be loaded in any version of CAD system so no more Cad version detection to load the right ARX / BRX / or in my case ZRX version.

I have been using ObjectDCL in ZWCAD for some time now, so I am very pleased with this update. The ODCL_LM file can also be used as a standalone program, for free.

Maybe you can have advantage from this like me.

bilançikur,

I don't recall seeing those in OpenDCL.

Are the routines openSource ?
and do you have a link to them ?

Thanks for the post.

Hi Kerry,

I am talking about ObjectDCL (from DuctiSoft). Not OpenDCL.
The program is not mine so I cannot provide you any sourcecode.

Here is a link:
