What is the future of autolisp, did autodesk will continue the support autolisp or it is fading away?
Thanks. Edited by thinker - 01.Nov.2015 at 09:16 |

I doubt that autolisp is going away any time soon.

AutoLISP (VisualLISP) is - and will be - the easiest way to make smaller utilities and add-ons for AutoCAD. To develop more advanced design automation tools and larger development projects, I would recommend one of the .NET tools (VB.Net, C#, etc.).

HI,
Half of the Acad express menu and even the standard acad menu file contains lisp. So i think it will not disappear at all. Regarding the programming i completely agree with Vladimir  . |

A more likely scenario for an AutoLisp disappearance would be a shear-grade (combination upgrade and crossgrade, AutoCAD -> Inventor, AutoCAD -> Revit, etc.). The .NET variants are more comprehensive.
