Deploy AutoCAD® .NET Plug-ins and Other Customization Files James E. Johnson – Synergis Software CP2618-R This class is for learning how to deploy your AutoCAD software .NET plug-ins and other AutoCAD customization files. We will discuss some of the different software packages for creating installation files and demonstrate creating a simple Microsoft® Visual Studio® setup project. We will discuss and illustrate the required registry settings for demand-loading a .NET or ObjectARX® plug-in. We will also discuss using the AutoCAD AutoLoader for automatic loading of ObjectARX, .NET plug-ins, and other customization. You will leave this class with an understanding of requirements for deploying AutoCAD customization files and understand demand-loading of ObjectARX .NET plug-ins. Learning Objectives At the end of this class, you will be able to: • Create installation files for AutoCAD customization files • Describe the required demand-load registry settings • Prepare code for deploying and adding to installer projects • Use the AutoCAD AutoLoader to automatically load plug-ins About the Speaker James has worked with CAD products for more than 25 years, involved in many positions from being a CAD drafter to writing automation applications. In his current position, he is doing CAD integration for Adept document management system. In previous positions, he has used Autodesk® RealDWG® to write custom automation to create AutoCAD® drawings of industrial kitchen equipment, and has worked at Autodesk resellers in software development groups doing custom applications for Inventor® and AutoCAD®.
