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'.

This question might more be a case of "general enquiries" rather than "problems". (For email only people, I am writing this in the new forum rather than by email and could not easily decide which forum it belonged in) Perhaps I should create some form of general questions forum ...

I initially tried just stripping out the binary portion of a .job file to see if it would be as easy as it looked... SheetCAM was not impressed! Did you leave the [BinaryDataStart] tag on the end of the file? I just tested a job file with everything after this tag stripped and it worked. I also loo...

External control of SheetCAM from Visual Basic / VBA
Hmm. Theoretically you don't have to link to a dll. SheetCam could expose a few functions externally that you could hook into. Instead of lib "xxx.dll" it would be lib "sheetcam.exe". Your software would of course need to know the full path to sheetcam.exe. Basically I want to cr...

External control of SheetCAM from Visual Basic / VBA
Hi James,
I have to admit I haven't really thought about it. Could you do what you
want with DDE? For various reasons I don't want to use OLE or COM.
Could you give me some more information on what you would like to do via
the link.
Les
