CP9130-1: AutoLISP: Beyond the Basics

Instructor: Robert Green

Class Description: So you’ve started using AutoLISP/Visual LISP but now you want to gain more functionality and build more elegant routines? This class will get you there. In this class we’ll discuss how to work with selection sets, set filtering, entity modification, user input qualification, logical functions WHILE, COND and FOREACH, using USER sysvars, custom error handlers, and system variable manipulation to create truly powerful routines. Along the way you’ll learn valuable tips to help you debug and protect your code using Visual LISP IDE functions. The class will be conducted in the context of actual programs using “pseudocode” so you’ll know what’s happening and why the programming statements look the way they do. If you’ve wanted to build your AutoLISP skills but haven’t been able to tackle the more advanced topics, this class is a must!
