Yes sure. Releases will be published here. GibHub is for the current work. It took us a lot of time to conevert the code to Visual Stdio 2017 with Unicode support. Thanks for your comments.

Thank you very much for the program under a free open source license! Added a program to a Russian-language site about free software, here is the link.

Will the program no longer be updated?

Hello,

Windows XP SP3 -> I check and it works. Unzip installator and execute ‘DraftCable1.0’. If you run the program and get ‘mfc120.dll’ missing error, go to installation folder (normally ‘C:\Program Files(x86)\CRIndustrial\DraftCable1.0’ and install Visual C++ redistributable ‘vcredist_x86.exe’.
Windows Vista, 7, 8 -> Unzip and install ‘setup’ that will install Visual C++ pre-requisite. If you even get ‘mfc120.dll’ missing error go to installation folder (normally ‘C:\Program Files(x86)\CRIndustrial\DraftCable1.0’ and install Visual C++ redistributable ‘vcredist_x86.exe’, too.
Windows 10 -> Not tested

Regards

Hello I found this info:
https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/linking-applications-using-visual-studio-2012-to-run-on-windows-xp
I will add Visual C++ 2013 redistributable x86 to the setup.
I have checked in Windows XP SP2 and it does not work but I think it will do in SP3.

Hello,
Sorry for all the inconveniences and thx for trying this application.
These issues with x64 showed when I migrated the application to Visual Studio 2013 and made some mistakes in build configurations.
To try to solve them I made following changes (from version 1.0.94 onwards):
1. Added the setup project to the solution (currently only in GitHub https://github.com/jcampos73/DraftCable). You need a Visual Studio add in to open the included setup project.
2. I added to the setup a prerequisite of Visual C++ 2013 Runtime Libraries (x32)
3. I checked build configuration of main application (DraftDraw project) to Win32
4. In windows 7, 8 you should execute application as administrator because it access the registry to read base directory
I apologize for all these problems and for not testing the program in several OS (XP, 7…), but at this moment I am the only contributor and prefer to show my idea to others. Fixing these issues and performing more tests I hope will be done when this project has more hands.
Thx a lot!
