Hace you considered a SheetCAM plugin API?
I downloaded Visual Studio 2005 and did some experiments. VC++ really insists on name mangling, no matter what you do. In the end I have had to resort to referencing functions by ordinal. This arrangement will still make SheetCam backwards compatible with older plugins. Newer plugins trying to use f...

Hace you considered a SheetCAM plugin API?
Hmm, I've done some more research and it looks like VC++ doesn't have implib but it looks like you can generate a .lib from a .def file. Here is an MSDN article <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q131313/>. From what I can see you need to create a file called SheetCam.def, containing the following tex...

Hi James, I can't provide you with an library because Borland C++ Builder libs aren't compatible with VC++ libs. However you should be able to use implib to create a .lib. With Borland the command would be implib sheetcam.lib sheetcam.exe. I assume the VC++ version of implib will work in a similar m...

The attached zip file contains a test version of SheetCam with a demo dll file. The demo dll adds a new main menu with 'load drawing' and 'load job' sub-menus. It demonstrates most of the currently available features. Unzip SheetCam.exe and demo.dll into your SheetCam directory. The other files are ...

Hace you considered a SheetCAM plugin API?
As long as you link via name rather than ordinal you will be OK. If new functions are added an older dll simply won't see them. After doing some experiments I have produced a .def file. You simply link with the .def file and everything should work. As far as I know .def files are universal so it sho...

Hace you considered a SheetCAM plugin API?
Hi James, I have been working on this. SheetCam will look for all dlls in the SheetCam directory. If they export the function scInit() then they are loaded and scInit() is called. SheetCam will look for a number of other callbacks. If they exist they will be called at the appropriate time, otherwise...

Problem with ramping
It may be an idea to pass the code on to the writers of cncsimulator. If
they are aware of the problem hopefully they can fix it.

Problem with ramping
Hi Neil, I can't see a problem here. If you rotate the view (hold shift and drag with the mouse), do your leadins look like the attached image? What post processor are you using? It could be a post problem. On a minor note I've installed 3.1.13 but help->about shows 3.1.12 Yes - I forgot to update t...

Hace you considered a SheetCAM plugin API?
Sounds good to me. Hooking the import routines shouldn't be a problem. I had originally intended the import filters to be plugins so a lot of the infrastructure is already in place. Export/post processing is also modular and based on C style callbacks so it would be easy to make that available to th...

Hace you considered a SheetCAM plugin API?
That would work but you would have to write a plugin that talks to your macro. As the current problem is finding a good way to talk to your macro, I don't think it would be any real advantage. Would you be interested in writing a plugin if I provided the interface? I am currently investigating COM a...

compatability question
I think you are right. I'll change the name..
I can see the potential for that, it feels a little crowded already. Maybe it could be combined with another section ie. 'general inc. problems'.
