Conversion from Earlier Code

Anonymous
Not applicable
I've been away from Objectarx for a few years. In 2005, I wrote a
moderately complicated application for AutoCAD 2002 and the earlier version
of Visual Studio, despite not really knowing what the heck I was doing.
I'd like to revise it for AutoCAD 2009, using Visual Studio 2005, and of
course it doesn't compile.
Can anyone steer me to an introduction to the issues involved with migrating
the code to work with the new versions?

Thanks for the help!

Starting with AutoCAD 2007, your ARX apps have to be UNICODE. Search the
Autodesk site for the migration guide (to 2007) and VisualTeefy (a utility
to help you convert your code to UNICODE).

I need the VisualTeefy app myself, but can't seem to find it.
Do you have to be an ADN member ?

Thanks

It appears that the ADN site is the only place to get it. I guess maybe you
do need to be an ADN member. Maybe someone from Autodesk could jump in here
and clarify that.

If you want single source code for both UNICODE and Non-UNICODE, you need
VisualTeefy. The "hints" in this link will make your code totally UNICODE
and won't be compatible with 2006 and below.

We ALL want VisualTeefy.
How/where do we get it?
