Geometric Processing External Libraries

Bool.dll

A 2D Boolean library for use by AutoCAD application developers. Requires that you are able to export the "polygons" to memory; Once in memory they can be operated on by this library. The user then retrieves the results from memory and load into AutoCAD. Requires understanding and use of AutoCAD's APIs.

Arc Recovery Library

A library that "recovers" arcs lost during Boolean operations. This enables a user to perform a Boolean operation such as unionization (Boolean operations don't work directly with arcs) and then "recover" arcs afterwards.
