McNeel Offers Free DOSlib for Bricsys Bricscad
 SEATTLE,
WA and GHENT, Belgium, Sep 9, 2009 - Robert McNeel & Associates, and Bricsys
NV together announce that McNeel’s highly successful DOSlib software -
formerly only available for AutoCAD - now also can be downloaded and used -
free of charge - for the latest version of Bricscad.
Since many years DOSlib is a highly popular software, completing LISP
capabilities for AutoCAD. It is a library of AutoLISP-callable functions
that provides a variety of Windows operating system capabilities to AutoCAD.
Written as an AutoCAD ObjectARX application, DOSlib extends the AutoLISP
programming language by providing a multitude of extra functionality. Thanks
to Bricsys' BRX code compatible API, DOSlib is now successfully ported to
Bricscad V9.3 and will serve the fast growing application portfolio for
Bricscad and its users community.
"The availability of DOSlib 8.0 was high ranked on our users' wish list -
Erik De Keyser, CEO of Bricsys says. "We are excited that Robert McNeel &
Associates made this available to our community. It contributes again to the
interoperability between AutoCAD and Bricscad. McNeel deserves our highest
estimate for constantly upgrading and providing DOSlib free of charge for
all these years now".
Robert McNeel comments: "With growing interest we are following Bricscad
for a while now. Porting DOSlib finally to Bricscad was little or no effort.
The Bricsys team provided us with regular BRX updates. We just had to
recompile our code once and a while and send back the generated reports.
Today all required BRX functions are there. From now on we only have to
maintain one source code stream for both AutoCAD and Bricscad. As we provide
DOSlib for free, this is of course a welcome advantage."
