Building for both: Bricscad .NET API and Autocad .NET API

Hans Märki

 Hi

I need to develop for both, Bricscad AND Autocad.

As I learned here (https://forum.bricsys.com/discussion/20400) that the .NET interface is source compatible, but not binary compatible.

Is there a documentation or a sample VisualStudio-project which shows, how to easily build a library for Bricscad AND Autocad?

I assume that I need two VisualStudio projects sharing the same source code.

Thanks!

Hi Hans,

Exactly right, you need two projects in your solution, each with references to the appropriate libraries and each with a definition I.e. ACAD/BCAD, so you can use #if statements as needed. The trick is to add your code files to a common folder and use ‘Add As Link’ to each project.  I have attached a sample that I use (C#). Caveat, Visual studio will only let you save projects as templates, not solutions.

 

Hope this helps ,

Cheers
