What does your AutoLisp programming directory look like?
« on: January 30, 2020, 07:07:50 PM »
Do you have a folder with a bunch of different projects/files in it or do you like a folder for each different project?

Please share a description of how your programming directory looks like.

You didn't include a "Both" option, John. I don't have many 'projects' per se, with many files. I do have separate folders for plain Acad, Civil 3D, & Land Desktop tools. But, within each of those folders are a multitude of files, most of which don't rely on any others. Now, if I were still actually coding in lisp and creating Dialogs, I would likely go with the folder per project option.

A folder for each project. I use a local SVN
D:/Dev/Projects/...

Been using it for years, no reason to change as it has all the features I need

Can’t argue with that.

Glad I wasn't the first to post who didn't know what a lisp project was. Do you need to put every folder in the SFSP and Trusted Locations? What's the purpose?

For Civil 3D it makes sense to keep drawings and associated files in a project folder, but this is the first I've ever heard of an AutoLisp programming directory.

What for? Before loading lisp turn off secureload system variable, and restore it after loading codes.

When you create a program to "Move all stuff to Layer X" (for example) you don't/didn't create a folder for that lisp file(s)?

That's interesting. One git repo and many projects?

I got out of AutoCAD and AutoLisp before trusted locations came about but apparently you can add an ellipsis after the path to include all sub-folders to the trusted locations.

Code: [Select]

No. one repo for one project.
