LispLink Revision History

208.01 - 12-15-08
  • Revised to become compatible with all versions 2002 - 2008 of ACAD
  • Incorporated links to versions 2002 - 2008 help files matched with the version of ACAD currently active.
2007.02 - 07-24-06
  • Revised to become compatible with all versions 2002 - 2007 or ACAD
  • Incorporated links to versions 2002 - 2007 help files matched with the version of ACAD currently active.
  • Automatically installs the Router for the ACAD current version.
16.04 - 05-27-2004
  • Fixed the opening of the ACAD help files. 16.03 did not open the files properly.
16.03 - 05-19-2004
  • Fixed network permission issues with Windows 2000 operating on a network. Without proper rights, LispLink could not save and update revised files. This was actually a Microsoft API problem.
16.02 - 05-10-04
  • Implemented an new installer that now includes uninstall capability.
  • Added option to watches to place prompt for Enter to Continue or no prompt.
  • Double-click on parenthesis, bracket, or brace now performs a brace match.
  • Increased the size of  the open file dialog's buffer so you can open many more files at once.
  • Changed help files to use AutoCAD's .chm files only. Now help will be displayed for the version you are currently working in or the latest version, not a generic help file that we created. This tends to be up to date and makes more complete help available.
  • Added "-" to syntax coloring of commands.
  • Implemented a version 2005 ARX for loading LispLink.
16.01 - 10-31-03
  • Changed to caelink2.dll which revised the license structure. This did not requires a new license code for LispLink, but does for all other products.
  • Modified the compile in ACAD to make it smoother. It now will start the VLISP compiler if it is not open. When this occurs for the first time, it starts to compile, but will require you to focus the ACAD window to complete the process. The VLISP compiler can be closed and selecting the compile option in LispLink will still compile in ACAD. This works well for development.
  • Removed the special ACAD 2002 detection that used activeX.
  • Implemented a more generic (and positive) detection method to find ACAD with the use of ARX files. These files must be installed into ACAD once and be active. Two versions exist, one for version 2000-2002 and the other for 2004.
  • Adjusted the VLA reference to use htmlhelp instead of WinHelp. AutoCAD no longer ships the .hlp file. This will also support version 2004.
  • Added support for additional key words and help to display them properly such. These include the type of variant in vlax-make-safearray and vlax-make-variant.
15.04 - 01-11-03
  • Added file tabs at the bottom of the edit window to make navigation faster and easier.
15.03 - 08-17-02
  • Revised the method used to find the ACAD window. There are two methods implemented, one for R12-R14 and one for R2000 - R2002. The method used for R12-R14 can only find the ACAD window, and will only find it if ACAD was the last active window. The 2000 version will find all ACAD windows, including special applications such as Architectural Desktop. There is a new setting in the Settings Dialog used to identify the version of ACAD you are using. Be sure to select the proper version to insure LispLink works properly.
15.02 - 03-25-02
  • Revised the "show called functions" and "variable list". The called functions now display internal (Int:) to the file or external (Ext:) to the file. The variable list now indicates global (Gbl:), local (Loc:), and defined arguments (Arg:). This should make documentation of your programs much easier and more accurate.
  • The local variable feature was also corrected to properly define and list all variables in the function and works much better.
  • The protect file feature has been fixed. It now works correctly with files with a filename in all upper or all lower case. This was very subtle error.
15.00b - 04-19-01 
  • Added special language character support. This should allow special characters in any language to be used in LispLink.
15.00a - 0 7-23-00
  • Fixed minor bug in finding the LispLink help files.
15.00 - 02-19-00
  • LispLink 2000 initial release
