I know XDCAD has stated that the tool(s) are not open-source because of "certain factors" but if the tool(s) were to open-source, that would/could offer up the possibility of TheSwamp members adding and making improvements -building a un/installer, writing documentation, building examples.
As you said,
1. The XDRX API was developed over the past 20 years as we continued to solve work problems. It is not professional, and I am not a professional programmer. I am an engineer, and my creed is the most Get the job done quickly.
2. Someone quoted a passage in the above. in github, about:
The API of this project is only for personal study and research.
only for personal study and researchLet me explain this sentence first. It was not in github,the above article at the earliest. Because after I came here, some people discussed possible copyright issues and added it later. So, I don’t want to Helping others while causing trouble for myself, just one sentence, sample disclaimer.
3.Speaking of security issues, I said it was a false positive, because there is a SHELL part in the API, and there are third-party libraries that directly read and write EXCEL files. They may have read the code of sensitive directories. Do you believe it is a false positive? , I naturally believe it, because your focus is on whether it can solve your problem. If you don’t believe it, no matter what I say, it’s useless... As a technical person, a simple logic, if I have the ability to do things that endanger safety Do I need to spend so much effort and spend 20 years writing an API for drawing software to do this?
4. I don’t want to say more about other things. If I have time, I might as well write more code for you. The reason why I have written so many applications is that I believe that the best way to learn APIs is by understanding them.
5. My original intention is to help engineers who are looking for efficient work. If you find it useful, use it. If you find it useless or even dangerous, ignore it.
6.I know some friends are worried that because of ARX, I cannot guarantee whether the next version of AUTOCAD will still be usable and will continue to support updates. However, 20 years ago, some people have been asking. I am now using 2004 and 2005. Can AUTROCAD still use XDRX API?
7. Someone mentioned above about open source,
At present, there is no way to open source the ARX part. LISP (including the LISP function library written with API, some of which are 100% open source), you can go to
http://bbs.xdcad.net to find more resources. This website is currently It is still inconvenient to post and edit, and there is no way to better classify and publish),
If you are interested in some functions of ARX, you can post a discussion and I will try to reply to it.
8. Everyone is working in technology, and their purpose is to support their families. Therefore, I prefer to focus on how to improve my work. If I make my work more efficient, I don’t have the energy to think about too many "other" issues. I don’t want to be bothered by these “others” either.
9. At present, various BBSs at home and abroad are affected by smart phones, and the discussion atmosphere is not very good. Everyone cherishes it.
