A number of CGM questions

Post by PKillian » 19 Sep 2005, 23:53

I tried using ABViewer to view CGM files. All I get is a vertical line. Are CGM’s fully supported?

The CADImporterDLL does not appear to support CGM. Is this true?

I have tried to get the CADImageVCL to compile. It says that it is missing sgGrVreg.dcu. Where do I get this file?

I downloaded the compiled executables and none of them support CGM. Does CADImageVCL support CGM.

Hi,

<i>>I tried using ABViewer to view CGM files. All I get is a vertical line. Are CGM’s fully supported?</i>

Officially documented CGM file format is supported fully. But some files have undocumented commands. We should be appreciated to you if you could send to support@cadsofttools.com such files for we could enlarge abilities of our products.

<i>>The CADImporterDLL does not appear to support CGM. Is this true?</i>

At present CADImporterDLL does not support CGM. But in closest issues this support will be implemented.

<i>>I have tried to get the CADImageVCL to compile. It says that it is missing sgGrVreg.dcu. Where do I get this file?</i>

CADImageVCL is an old realisation of CADImportVCL (available on: http://www.cadsofttools.com/?PageName=CADImportVCL). Please inform us what version of Delphi do you use.
Could you please inform us about the source where you found CADImageVCL.

<i>>I downloaded the compiled executables and none of them support CGM. Does CADImageVCL support CGM.</i>

CADImportVCL.zip (available on: http://www.cadsofttools.com/download/CADImportVCL.zip) includes ABViewer demo in CADImportVCL\Delphi\Demos\Viewer folder. It supports CGM.

I have sent two files.

My mistake, I wrote CADImageVCL while I meant CADImportVCL. I am using CBuilder 6. Would it be possible to just supply the compiled BPL and BPI files?

Since I can’t compile the VCL, I cannot produce the ABViewer demo from CADImportVCL.

Thank you for your files. They are in work already.

Please install Graphic Viewer component sgGrpVwBCB6.bpk from CADImportVCL\CBuilder\BCB 6\Lib folder.

CADImportVCL and CADImporter.DLL support CGM file format.
