Delphi and ICadAuto.dll

Am I wasting my time trying to develop here? A lot of the methods and properties just don't work

Hans De Backer

Many 3rd party developers created professional applications built on the BricsCad COM API. Most of them used Visual Basic, some C++, and only a few used Delphi, because there are indeed problems that have to be conquered.E.g. the type-library wrapper code that is generated by Delphi 6 contains errors (Delphi 5 does the wrappers correctly). So one can use Delphi 5 for importing or edit the generated .pas code manually.Example:property EncryptionMethod: IDispatch index 300 read getIDispatchProp;should become:property EncryptionMethod: IDispatch index 300 read GetIDispatchProp write SetIDispatchProp;If not, this property will be readonly, and 'not work'.Other problem I remember is that a Delphi developer had to switch off the Borland Standard Components and Borland CLX Standard Components in order to successfully import the icadauto.dll.Kind regards,Hans De BackerBricsCad Development

Hans,I'm using Delphi 7 - while the type library looks like its built properly some of the methods give unexpected errors. I
