FRX Developer's Guide

Introduction

FRX is a C/C++ API, compatible with ObjectARX®. The application developer only needs to work on code maintenance and implementation of new features for his modules regardless of API. It means, that the switch between both APIs should not lead in any compiling issues. 

Besides different header includes paths and libs, the settings should be identical.
