VeCAD is a 3D vector graphics library. It serves as a foundation for your own customized drawing applications (CAD/GIS). The library is furnished in two discreet formats; as a run-time Windows 32 bit DLL; and, as an OCX (ActiveX control). Both are included.
These components can be used with applications written in the popular Visual IDE languages such as Visual Basic, Delphi, C++ Builder and Visual C++.
The VeCAD package also includes a powerful CAD editor in executable form, based entirely on the VeCAD engine. Use this application to visualize your own project's possibilities!
