title: AutoCAD library in Java to read .dwg files?
body: <p>Is there any open-source Java or JavaScript library available to parse .dwg files and get the objects from it.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to extract data from a table of text for my project. </p>
  
  <p>It seems that the AutoCAD developer community prefers .NET and C/C++ over JAVA. </p>
  
  <p>The only free alternative I found is by converting .dwg to .dxf first and using the Kabeja lib to read from it.</p>
