NOOOO!!!
Are you assuming that Lisp (Vanilla or Visual) is going away?
Or are you advertising your product?

Kind of odd minds so brilliant they can define a new age don't know a thing about marketing. Between that, one post e-cred and the "content" at the target url (no I won't click it) I call bull5h!t.

[dgorsman]

Similar to many random postings over at the AutoDesk forum.  I call advert.

Be careful after spending 20 minutes trying to figure out what to do at the link that had nothing on it but

 it will take you to a YouTube video with a very catchy rave song that made me get up and dance.

I make the suggestion genuinely -- please -- get someone else to do your PR.

Hi all ...
The world is a very very small handkerchief. 
Our friend D2010 has chosen to make the documentation of his convert c ++lisp a program a few weeks ago I was looking for.
I have found several, complicated and cumbersome. The code of the Romanian D2010 friend   is the clearest and most orderly of 6 or 8 programs that I can look ( Conversion of LAT / LONG to UTM in any  DATUM ) 
D2010 , friend ! thank you very much !!!

Greetings.

Hi.....
The other users question: The new programming language C++LISP is stupid?

I'm not a programmer, however I followed your link...
I couldn't tell what it was you were selling..a converter
OR
Romanian Brides?

Chad Wanless tried this years ago.
It was (IMO) a dismal failure, not because of any lack of programming talent, but because of the fundamental disparity between a functional programming language, such as LISP, and an imperative language, such as C++.

A "simple minded" LISP->C++ translator will restrict you to writing "simple minded" LISP programs, which defeats the purpose of using LISP.

Those few individuals with the sophisticated knowledge required to translate a moderately complex LISP program (any flavor, AutoLISP or otherwise) to an efficient C++ program are unlikely to waste their talents doing so, IMO.

BTW, I'll take "Romanian Brides" for 300, Alex.
(esp. if the forsythia is included).

Same impression - the logic is not the same - also the code used looks like it is ADS no ObjectARX so any new of the functions are not available?.

And why do you need your code in C++ when you do not know the language?

Would like to see how they solved the use or conversion of mapcar...

[hermanm]

And why do you need your code in C++ when you do not know the language?

In the "old days" (perhaps circa 1984) it might have made made some kind of sense, if you had a computationally intense program, but only knew how to write AutoLISP.

These days, it makes no sense at all, AFAIK.

[Jeff H]

Seems like you need to learn C++  to be able understand how they relate instead of remembering this group words 'will do the same as this Lisp'---(but not understanding why it produces the same output and the correct way to handle it in other context)

[kdub_nz]

d2010,

Can you please post several  sample Lisp files with ActiveX (VLISP) functions and methods and the converted C++ code files.
... also can you provide the code compiled for AutoCAD 2012 64 bit.

I think I still have a copy of one of the first prototypes of "SharpLisp".  Promising, but it never happened.  Maybe Chad was side lined by his illness?  Truly a brilliant programmer!
