Subject : RE: Is SDK still available/usable?
Posted : 2/3/2019 12:37 PM
Post #30276 - In reply to #30275

The SDK interface ... ie the programmer-API ... technically is "updated" every time a new major (ie annual) version of OT is released. That is, all DLL's created within the SDK have to be recompiled each time it changes.

Nirvana never has and probably never will formally document all the "hooks" (ie objects, classes, etc) that a VB.net programmer can use when interfacing with the SDK. They provided some examples of Indicator, System and Stop in the standard SDK package a long time ago. To my knowledge, those examples still are the same. They don't tell us about new "hooks" that are available.

I use the SDK interface regularly ... just did so a few weeks ago in fact. It still works just fine and dandy.

My rule of thumb is to limit myself to using things that work in OLang ... that way I can develop in that language, and readily compare to the SDK clone. But most people use the SDK in order to do tasks that OLang doesn't permit.
