Choosing the Right Tool for the Job - Products and APIs
The number of Autodesk products that are extensible – built to be platforms – has grown a lot over the last few years. If you only work with one Autodesk platform, you may at times not be using the best tool for the job. APIs have been changing too. Autodesk has been promoting .NET for a number of years as a very productive development environment – but does that mean COM and C++ are obsolete and what about Open Source tools like Python and Ruby? And what about VBA and VSTA? Is VBA really going away – and when? Learn best practices on choosing the right tool for the job – and avoiding blind alleys. |
