many problems with Bricscad and Linux
I have a testversion of Bricscad (Linux). I like Linux and like cad for Linux.
But unfortunately a can´t work with the current version.
My testcomputer ist a notebook with OpenSuse 11.3, 64 Bit, Nvidia GeForce m105.
The Program works ok, but i can´t plot, because the plotsize is always 0x0cm. Change or create a pc3-file is not possible.
Often the command bar lost the focus.
Copy and paste from OpenOffice to bricscad wont work.
Only few from my lisp-routines workes, because vla- and vlax- procedures missing or buggy.
Is there a list with all implemented procedures und fuctions inclusive vla- and vlax?
Is there a way to change data between Bricscad und OpenOffice with lisp (in windows OLE)?
I would like to send attributes directly from Bricscad to an open Calc-file (without csv- (or xml) file).
I send a email to bricsys-Support, but i got no answer.

Those VLA, VLAX and VLAR functions will be completed during next 2,3 months;
VLAX is mainly available already ... but as mentioned, Lisp will be complete as in
Windows, so you can expect yoru Lisp code to run fine then.All those "COM" based functions can only work with Bricscad's own objects, not
with "external" objects outside (no COM available).0 -
Hallo, Torsten Moses,
thank you for your answer.
I would translate my macros from vba to lisp.
Do you have a actually list with implemented vla- functions?
The connection between Calc or databases (MySQL, Firebird) and Linux-Bricscad is very important.
Under Linux there is no way to realise this with lisp?

Currently, no VLA functions are enabled with current release;
but they will come ...
Then, VLA system will be able to "connect" to CAD system objects only,
no way to connect to objects "outside" Bricscad.
Not sure whether that is possible at all ...
If such programs (Calc, databases) provide a kind of interface for "external"
access, then it will be a pleasure for me to add such access to applications
like Calc or MySQL into our Lisp engine, under VLA system.
Basically it depends whether any similar system like "COM" exists under Linux ...0
