Autodesk currently plans to continue support of the existing Ecotect and its related tools and is working to transition the sales process to the Autodesk e-Store. In the interim a free trial version of the latest commercial software is available for download until August 15 2008, after accepting the end-user license agreement (EULA) that accompanies the product.
User32 DLL Problems
4 April 2007
A recent Microsoft XP update has introduced problems with User32.dll and HHCTRL.OCX Windows system files, affecting quite a few programs including ECOTECT. However, this is quite easily fixed.
Should ECOTECT allow the use of file and system commands within scripts ?
3 February 2008
The ability to access files and folders within a script can add enormous utility and flexibility. However, used incorrectly or maliciously, it can also be quite damaging, especially if deleting or overwriting data on disk. There are a number of ways to minimise any risks associated with adding this functionality to scripting in ECOTECT. We want your opinion on how best you think we can handle this.
