Microsoft writes different Windows Registry data for the Express editions of its products compared to the Pro and other editions. The bmake build process is looking for the Registry keys for Viz Studio Pro .

Hi Chad, you are breaking forum best practices and rules. Please, repost this issue as a new question, as it has nothing to do with the original topic of this discussion (which is reference file scanning). You should be aware the only victim of this…

Hi Chad, Unknown said: Do you guys have any idea why I cannot get the contents out of the fence? It's very hard to investigate what is happening in your unformatted and not structured code. Please do it better, at least use Syntaxhighlighter and make…

Unknown said: I want the text from the active design file and its attachments that falls within a clipped area If, by 'within a clipped area', you mean a fence, then use ActiveDesignFile.Fence.GetContents . Since fence contents can be anything, you…

Hi Chad, in this post I will play a role of a wicked man and will be hard on you ... a bit ;-) Unknown said: There was no free version of 2005 available, and I was not sure how much it mattered. In your other post you wrote you are comfortable with…

Unknown said: Usage = MSTNDEVVARS.BAT [MicroStation dir] [MicroStation SDK dir] You must supply the paths to (a) MicroStation and (b) the MDL sub-folder. I don't know why it can't figure those out for itself, considering you start it from the \MDL\bin…

It's recommended to don't ask for different topics in the same thread, so I recommend to create a new post if you have a new quesion. Frankly I don't understand what is a reason of your question. All examples in SDK are created as "complete", which…

Great, good to know it helped ;-) Crossing fingers for further development effort! With regards, Jan

Unknown said: I know there are examples in the SDK, I just don't know what they are called Most of the examples in the V8 i SDK are implemented in C++. For example, \MDL Examples\basic . Use a search tool to look for .cpp files. Unknown said: Is bookstore…

Hi Chad, Unknown said: Which place in the SDK should I look at... You did not tell what version of MicroStation and MicroStation SDK do you use. In V8i, the default SDK examples folder is MDLProjects V8i (SELECTseries 3) in your Documents . Unknown…

Hi Chad, Unknown said: I am not sure which Microstation SDK I use. It's not easy to provide an advice, to know versions is pretty important when any development is done, because proper versions of MicroStation + SDK + Visual Studio have to be used…

Hi Chad, Unknown said: The version is lists is v08.11.09.460. Is this the correct version? As I wrote, SDK and MicroStation versions are coupled tightly, so without know MicroStation build it cannot be told if it's correct version or not. SDK build…

Hi Chad, I will try to add a few more notes to what Jon's wrote: As Jon wrote, it's not quite clear what do you want to achieve. In software development, a functional target has to be defined at first and at the second step the best technology and…

Unknown said: My ultimate goal is to be able to write C++ programs that operate within Excel and Microstation It's not clear what you mean by 'operate within Excel and MicroStation'. You can write a DLL with a host of exported functions. However, whether…

Giuseppe: I have a massive amount of code previously developed for Microstation v8 2004 and written in native C built with visual studio 2005. Now I want to port this code under Microstation v8i to benefit of .NET framework capabilities. What…
