Title: Migrating AutoCAD® Apps to the Fiberless Environment
Instructor: Bill Adkison
Course Description: Change is coming to the AutoCAD program control architecture. For decades, AutoCAD has relied on switching between multiple native code call stacks, initially to support (command) in LISP, and later to support acedCommand in ARX and MDI document management. Due to the evolution of operating system technologies, and specifically the recently announced AutoCAD for Mac OS, the AutoCAD main control structure is being retooled to run on a single stack. ARX, and .NET applications that manipulate MDI or use acedCommand/acedCmd, and LISP applications that use (command) from *error* handlers, will require some source logic changes. This change also offers some new opportunities for driving AutoCAD through the command execution facility, and will eliminate an obscure-but-significant class of system failures only recently identified. Come and learn how to prepare your applications for this transition. If you plan to migrate your applications to AutoCAD for the Mac, this class is a must.
