Here i go with my first post. Let me say most of you seem like IT magicians to me. I just hope i will be able to help people here in the near future.
I work as a CAD developper for a large engineering firm since May'08. I was really excited when i first saw those dialog boxes they were creating here with ObjectDCL, a definite wow. I been told the whole story about ObjectDCL being bought shortly after going opensource. A serious brainstorm took place here back then, to decide whether they would buy licenses to ObjectDCL (and pay) or going
with the opensource project. I can understand they were stressed out, considering the impressive number of CAD applications developped with ODCL in here. I can't imagine the crisis if 200+ applications used by 500+ users everyday were starting to go wrong
...They first decided to buy 1 license to test. Finally they ended up buying license kits for all the developpers. Obviously they're all thrilled with the product (so am i although still a rookie with LISP and ODCL compared to them) and they consider to have taken the right decision. Cannot tell much about the support since i haven't need any so far (well i got talented users teaching me ) but those who did told me they were pleased with it.
Unfortunately i can't provide a comparison with OpenDCL because i never had the chance to use it (sorry for that)
Psuchewinner sure is going to have a blast....have fun!
