Discussion - Software / Re: Registering the FTD2XX.DLL
« on: July 27, 2020, 06:30:07 PM »
Hello!
That is a bigger help. But trying those examples I get this problem:

The first was trying it, with sticking the library name there, instead of the entry in the example online.  The system had that to say about it. The second was from trying it without the / thing the other needed.

It seems the library needs whatever the complaint wants to be properly registered. IMHO it might need to be rebuilt.

Hello!
Okay. But are there any suggestions for simply registering the library so that it would be available in general? I've come across a suggestion someplace to use the gacutil command to instruct the appropriate Dot-Net version to do so for a completely different library, but in this case of course I was thinking of FTD2XX.DLL for the obvious circumstances.

Supporting Keysight's VEE is not requested.

Hello!
I found out about the FTD2XX.DLL library via the list which supports the VEE program, which is now supported by Keysight. And that user was able to access the features of the library to fully inform VEE of it, and do other things. However... In my case I sometimes see error messages that a particular method isn't available, yet that's what was selected.

Supposedly the library is supposed to be registered with the Dot-Net collector of such libraries inside Windows, but I've not found a clew as to how that should be done. I did note that the C# examples shown describe how to build from the source code, and that includes making the library available at build time, and including the XML file for interpretation by Visual Studio. I've also come across on the site a Labview example series. Well okay but I use VEE for my work.  8)

Hello!
Gregg Levine here. I'm based in NYC. And I use the FTDI parts in connecting either to legacy hardware who have RS232 connectors. For example some Parallax boards use that method. And they sell adapters which contain FTDI part numbers. Some Parallax boards also contain FTDI part numbers for directly connecting to Parallax branded hardware. I also use FT232 ones in a breakout board style made up by Sparkfun for that purpose. In that case I have a few questions coming up concerning the Dot-Net wrapper DLL.
I also use the same family in communicating with certain members of the Arduino community. Typically using adapters designed to attach to a set of matching posts on that board. I first found out about the family of parts in a magazine about the time the original site went up.
