How long to be somewhat confident with Autocad API

(1/3) > >>

nobody:
I was told by a manager one of his interns (who mentioned he has no programming experience at all) is excited to learn the "technical stuff" (specifically programming/API of Civil 3D/Autocad) and asked if I'd be willing to help him. I messaged the kid and said "hey, when you want to dive in I can probably save you a lot of headaches".  His reply "I'm sure it's basic enough I can figure it out on my own".  People here were a ton of help, especially our old friend Oleg, but I did that and it sucked dinosaur-sized eggs that went in and came out the same size. He's an engineer so he will have to learn it the same as I did (on his own time).  For me, it took probably 3 years to get to the point I didn't feel like I was screwing things up.  I'm curious what other people's experiences are.  Please share if you're willing.

You can learn every day all your life. And at the end of your way you can say 'i just know that I won't know anything'

I have been using the AutoCAD .NET API extensively for over 10 years and I often feel like a beginner.

That is true Gile, but you´re great enough...
The goal with Autodesk API is many are using and spreading knowledge here in this forum!
