CAD Visual Component Library Gets an Update

CADSoftTools releases CAD VCL v14.1.1.

Developers who use C++ and Delphi know all about the importance of having access to the latest and greatest Visual Component Libraries (VCLs) that relate to features within a project under development. VCLs are especially useful for teams that are not looking to reinvent the wheel just to integrate a specific set of features into their project.

The end result is that your software applications will be able to import, edit and export popular AutoCAD file standards such as DWG, DXF, HPGL PLT, HGL, STEP, STL, ACIS SAT, BREP, CGM, SVG and more. For a full list of compatible formats, check out the CADSoftTools supported formats page here.
