EDG.EXE - is there any newer version of this?

The version I have is last modified in 1998 and has to be added to the DEP on newer OS. Is it possible to get the source code so I can replicate the functionality in FME?

  • Hi ,

    EdG.exe since MicroStation V8's release back in 2001 has long been deprecated and is only compatible with the MicroStation V7 (IGDS based) file format.

    Can you let me know a bit about the workflow, conditions and are constraints you need to work with so we can possibly provide a specific recommendation and help you forward?

    Thank you,
    Bob



  • Hi Robert,
     
    We use MicroStation v7 files and are using the EDG in a couple of different applications with different parameters. As it is deprecated is it possible to get the source code? That would enable me to replicate the functionality as we are stuck using MicroStation v7 files for the immediate future. If it makes a difference we are also licensed for MicroStation.
