Purpose
Scheme ACIS Interface Driver Extension (Scheme AIDE) is a Scheme-based ACIS demonstration application. It serves many purposes for ACIS developers, such as:
- Providing a means of exercising ACIS functionality without writing or compiling a stand-alone C++ application. This helps developers learn and prototype functionality.
- Providing the C++ source code for the Scheme extensions used by Scheme AIDE. This can be used for insight into how to implement specific ACIS functionality in a developer's C++ based application.
- Being used as an example of a Scheme-based ACIS application, or a starting point for creating a new Scheme-based ACIS application.
- Providing a means for customers to report problems against ACIS to Spatial.
Scheme AIDE is a command-line program that accepts Scheme commands at a command prompt and displays the results in a separate view window. The commands may be either native Scheme commands or ACIS Scheme command extensions.
