January’s Plugin of the Month: FacetCurve

Jan 11, 2010

Firstly, a slightly belated "Happy New Year!" to all of you. I'm now easing back into the saddle after three very relaxing weeks off with family and friends.

One of the first activities I had on my plate in 2010 was to tidy up the application I presented in this previous post and turn it into January's Plugin of the Month, FacetCurve for AutoCAD. The original C++ application this plugin is based on was generously provided by Jon Smith from COINS, a long-time ADN member (thanks, Jon!).

You'll find the official announcement over on Scott's blog, in his trademark eye-catching style (I definitely get envious of Scott's image gallery when I visit his blog ;-).

I'll be knuckling down to post something more in-depth later in the week, by which time I'll hopefully once again see the bottom of my inbox.

It can not be compiled with VS2008.
Because the variable 'closest' defined in line 627 of "facetCurve.cs" was unassigned. 🙂

That's really strange: I converted the project to VS 2008 and it compiles just fine on my system (with neither errors nor warnings).

Can you help with some steps I might follow to reproduce this problem?

[An easy workaround is to assign the variable during its declaration, of course:

Point3d closest = new Point3d();

But I'd rather understand the issue before making this change in the next version.]

Thanks,

Kean
