FILE : Open, Read & Close file

Comments

  •  Hi every body.
    This is my first time using this forum to discuss the LISP matter.

    I've written my working LISP under AutoCAD base.
    I can say, it's working well all the way with AutoCAD.

    Then I'm using BricsCAD because the price is affordable and friendly with LISP environment.
    My BricsCAD version is V11 and V12.
    So far, I'm quite happy working with BricsCAD

    I've designed my LISP to open, read and close a file for certain routine.
    However, it's not really function well under BricsCAD base.
    The LISP cannot function in proper manner compared to AutoCAD base.
    I used to read the CSV or text file to generate my certain drawing.

    Can anybody tell me what is happening on this small problem.

    thank you


  • I would first try to set CMDECHO=1, to see if any (command "....") runs out-of-sync;
    this can happen with a few native commands, which are not (yet !) commandline compatible
    in their options.

    Besides, we need some more details, *what* is failing with BricsCAD ...
    you might even add your Lisp and sample data so that we (and forums readers) can check what goes wrong.

    If it is a problem in Lisp engine (very unlikely), we will fix this, promised :-)
    Many greetings !
  • If it executing properly in AutoCAD, we should be able to get it to run in Bricscad with very very minor code changes. I also ran into this when using my old lisp routines after I switch to Bricscad.  As Mr. Moses mentioned, post your code with a data file sample and we can get it straightened out.  If some of us lightweights can't figure it out, Mr. Moses will be able to. He wrote the lisp interpreter for Bricscad.
