CADconform for MicroStation Readme

Other Bentley Platforms

Note that CADconform may work on other OS platforms and MicroStation versions. The ones listed above represent actual tested platforms. If your MicroStation or PowerDraft minor revision number is greater than listed above, CADconform should still work. See below for the version schema:

Version: AA.BB.CC.DD

AA: Major version number
BB: Minor version number
CC: Major revision number
DD:Minor revision number

In general, only differing major or minor version numbers represent platforms that may not work with CADconform. For minor version or major revision numbers, the product will usually work but may not be detected automatically by the CADconform installer. This may mean that the platform executable will need to be manually located during the install, if it is not successfully located in the default installation folder by CADconform. This is usually because the Bentley product registry entry has changed, and registry entries cannot accurately be predicted prior to a product release. For unsupported platforms, CADconform may still work with a "Custom Installation" type. This usually involves manually copying the custom configuration file created by the CADconform installer into the platform "/config/appl" directory. As a general rule, the PowerDraft platform configuration will run on any platform, whereas the MicroStation configuration will only run on MicroStation itself and any base products that run a full MicroStation engine, including PowerGeopak, PowerInroads, AECOSim, ProStructures and Promis-e. Examples of products that do not run a full MicroStation engine and will only run with the PowerDraft platform configuration are V8i versions of PowerCivil, PowerSurvey and PowerMap.
