Hello, My Readers

.
From my blog title, you must have already known the main topics of this blog are about AutoCAD related programming.

My 15-year programming experience was started with AutoCAD programming (LISP, of course). It gradually expanded to more general programming that touches all sort of technologies (well, on MS' Windws platform, mostly). Since the employers I have been worked for so far all use AutoCAD (or its vertical products) as one of the main production tools, I always have AutoCAD programming under my interest radar and actually do some interesting development from time to time.

From my both experience of doing line of business programming and AutoCAD programming, I can tell how much this kind of skill set is needed by business and how much one can do and enjoy from doing it.

I'll try to share some interesting topics on latest AutoCAD programming tricks (well, latest, as it turns out, would be only "latest" as I can get. For example, I am using AutoCAD 2009 now, and am not sure when I can touch on AutoCAD 2010...). I am especially interested in integrating MS' new technologies, such as WPF, WCF, WWW, with AutoCAD application development.

I am not a good technical writer at all and may not have that much time available often to sit down and write something. So, I'll try to get something out whenever I run into an interesting topic. Some topics may be originated from various user discussion groups, which I visit routinely and do post there (mostly replies) occasionally.
