I uploaded to the customer-files GPOLY that is similar to what bpoly does,
but with more features, please read the instructions on the "GPOLY
readme.txt" and "gpfuzz.txt" files.

I have 25 free copies available, the program runs as full working demo for
15 days.

Use this e-mail address to send me the unique KEY 1 generated for your
computer.

Have fun,
Luis.

Here is a little more info....

GPOLY is a project I wrote in AutoLISP/VisualLISP/ODCL/VB/ARX that you can
use to generate boundaries, the program recognize nodes/intersections, so,
no need to break any object.

You can use a FUZZ variable to setup the compensation for comparing possible
nodes/intersections that might form an enclosed area.

Also, it comes with the ability to show possibles gaps/leaks of an enclosed
area, before creating the boundary.

And more.... please, read the text files once, you do the installation.

Hey Gang (& Luis by extension);

I "bit" and I'm glad XP was kind enough to stop the installation and report
that the executable was potentially harmful. Having experience with a addon
of this type before is how I worked up the nerve to give it a try.

My thanks to Uncle Bill for adding the ability to XP to trap harmful
programs.

Don,

Why are you saying that?

No way I would do such thing.... can you tell me more about what is exactly the HARMFUL part you are mentioned, please.

And in case, you want to know about me, please ask here, or I can give to you my phone number of my office, I have no problem with that.

Best regards,
Luis Esquivel.

And Don Reichle

I also have windows XP on my personal and at all the computers in my office too.

I have norton antivirus, weeb root spy sweeper... this application has been installed in many computers, the last one was for an office of 58 stations, and I have not got any comment coming from them.

I can provide also the e-mail of the CAD Manager of that company to you, they are ZIUR S.A in Madrid Spain, where I provide my services as a consultant to them, just to mention one.

Why are you calling me GANG ?.... and Luis EXTENSION ?

James Allen · Guest

Hi Luis, it looked like he was addressing a "warning" to the group at large
(GANG) while recognizing that the message also pertains to you (by
EXTENSION) since your name is on it.

Stepping out on a limb here... this looks to me like a simple case of
bad-stuff-catching software simply looking at methods used or even just file
extensions and warning the user that the code COULD be malicious. I
think that key word is too often missed, as in cases of false positives on
legitimate code.

For what it's worth, I personally would trust code with your name on it.
It's not like you're just some noname that popped into the group to push bad
code on us.

To all,

I would like to explain what is exactly inside of the EXE file I have for my
application GPOLY

1. The wizard installation was made using Inno Setup 4

2. A Visual Basic installer that I wrote to place the menu and the support
path for the vlx file on all the AutoCAD's in the target PC, this program
does changes into the registry as normal procedure any other application
will do.

3. I use my own VB active-x control to generate unique key number per
computer, this to avoid at possible piracy.

4. My own ObjectARX functions inside of the files "draftteam15.arx" and
"draftteam16.arx"

5. The files "ObjectDCL2004.arx" and "ObjectDCL.arx" made by 3rd Day
Software www.objectdcl.com and I own an Enterprise version of ODCL.

6. GPOLY.DLL is a simple resource DLL to storage the icons for the toolbar.

7. And the support text documents

8. The GPOLY.VLX that includes my proprietary code.

I accept al type of comments about my CODE and to my SOFTWARE, I know I am
not perfect, I try to do my best and by the way I am not a professional
programmer, even I have worked in the past for two software companies as
aprogrammer I am not, I am an Architect register in Mexico and I work here
in California now for an architectural office as a project coordinator and I
had been in the architectural and civil engineering business for 32 years
now.

Best regards,
Luis Esquivel

And I know after the statement Don did about my application, no one would
like to give it a try, but no problem, I will upload in the
customer-files.a ZIP file with all the files, and let the user made the
installation manually.

I know Terry,

That was a good VB exercise for me, anyway I quit trying to sell my software
and I'm giving it for free for now, I might take that out in the future, all
I want it, was to provide an alternative decent solution for a few people
interested, and simple want it to have control for this, and also this even
is not a perfect solution I have spent a lot of effort writing this code, it
is very complex at least for me.

Again thank you for your comments,

Luis.

Luis;

The Gang was meant for all the rest of the browsers here, not you
personally.

"By extension" was meant as a way to include you.

And my version of XP Home stopped your executable from installing, which I
took as its way of protecting me from something possibly harmful.

I'm not one who hides their email address so you could have contacted me in
private if you had wanted to go that route.

Well, this is the first I've seen his name associated with the LDT DG, and
so maybe anybody who knows my background on that particular DG can see my
side.

With no fanfare whatsoever, this post pops up in that DG regarding an
improved version of Bpoly. Being a rather trusting sort I thought I would
give it a try, as I've always wanted an improved tool along those lines.

So imagine my chagrin when it wouldn't even clear the installation
"watchdog" in XP Home. And seeing that Luis hides his email address I had no
other recourse but to broadcast my attempt. If I get the chance I will most
often address these types of matters privately.

And I'm still waiting to hear from those who've had a successful attempt
with said executable.

The monkeying with the registry version that Luis has posted is not
something that most folks would feel comfortable attempting for a tool with
a unproven track history.

I wish I would have been able to give a glowing report for Luis after a
successful installation and trial, but as it is...

Don't get into despair over my showing the yellow card, get back in the game
and fix whatever's wrong and give it another go, amigo.

Estoy apesadumbrado de haber causadole apuro. Acepte por favor mi apología.

Joe Burke · Guest

Don,

Just my two cents...

I think you had an alternative other than, "no other recourse..." which was say
nothing until you knew more about Luis. All you had to do in that regard was list
messages from him in this newsgroup. What you would have found is tons of messages on
many topics most often aimed at helping people. Seems like common sense to me, when
posting something like this to a NG you are not familiar with.

I won't debate the fine points of the installation, "watchdog", or Luis' code. What I
feel inclined to say is you insulted one of the most respected and well liked persons
in this NG, based on questionable evidence.
