IntelliCAD IcAPI is updated and pre-released to members. The API is highly compatible with AutoCAD Object ARX and allows ITC members to build applications with a single code base that runs on both platforms.

“We’re excited to deliver our second major release in five months and before the year ends,” said David Lorenzo, ITC president. “Additionally, we’ve received feedback about our initial member pre-release of IcARX API earlier this year, and the first on-the-ground implementations are proving that IcARX is advancing to more easily port AutoCAD ObjectARX applications to the IntelliCAD platform.”
