Hi ,
I am very new with this, what should i learn first about C# and CAD (computer aided design).
I am working with C# for 2 years but this was with ASP , and now i am very new with CAD, what should i learn first about it ?
Please any advices, links with tutorials are welcomed...
Thanks
This is a topic near to my heart. Before I started developing, I was a system admin who dreamed of coding. In my spare time I started to write Autocad scripts in C# for the Engineers in my back office.
I read this blog (among others) to get me started.
I would start with what you know, which is probably includes ADO and build some functionality into what you are working on currently in the CAD world. Again, for myself, we had an IBM mainframe with customer data and Engineers handwriting worksheets designed in CAD. I took the two and married them into a pretty successful utility application that ran right inside of the engineer's copy of AutoCAD. Now they just selected a customer they were doing work for and it populated the text fields inside of the worksheet, and there was much rejoicing yay.
At any rate, enjoy the experience.
Read the book "Large-Scale C++ Software Design", by John Lakos, from Mentor Graphics, one of the EDA (electronic design automation), a related branch of CAD.
(Some of his advices are outdated, but still useful.)
I'm making this answer cw so everyone can put book lists here.
