If you feel your audience uninitiate,
Unable profundities to penetrate,
Rest easy; out of fashion is naïveté.
The essential aspects of this project are as follows.
- Use the IGES modules from AutoCAD with as
little modification as possible.
- Extract the self-contained core support routines
needed by IGES.
- Develop a comprehensive emulator for the AutoCAD
core database, symbol table, and system variable
facilities.
Let's examine the rationale and some of the details of each of these.
