Description

CrossCad/Ware offers a platform for software developers to embed Datakit technology within their applications. The Datakit libraries come with a comprehensive Application Programming Interface (API) designed to facilitate seamless interoperability between various CAD systems. For software firms currently utilizing Datakit solutions for CAD data exchange, these libraries serve as an effective means of integration into their existing software. They provide essential access to the details contained in native data files, which includes both 3D and 2D geometrical and topological information, along with critical aspects such as dimensions, tolerances, features, and annotations. The integration process allows for the meticulous transfer of each entity, ensuring that data attributes are properly processed, which enhances the control over the transferred information. This robust solution caters to the demands of Datakit’s clientele, primarily software companies, aiming to surpass simple file-to-file transfers and achieve a more refined capability for managing data attributes, ultimately improving their software offerings.
