I want to compile s2 in Delphi Object Pascal - can you help please

[andyhill2]

Hi Calum, I want to experiment with some software I have written and I want to interface it to GeneratorX, can you please advise how to get Delphi Object Pascal version source code - thanks.

Kind Regards Andy Hill

Hi Andy, I'm not an official maintainer of the Spooky2 software and don't have access to their devices. So this software was written by reverse-engineering the serial protocols.

Because this is C++, it won't compile natively with Pascal - but you might be able to compile s2 as a library (.dll/.so) and call it as external code. Unfortunately it's not been written in that way and would require some work.

Also note that this code is not for Generator X - I expect that the protocol will not work but since I don't have a Gen-X I haven't tested it.

I have some code lying around that is for C#.

Thank you Calum for replying to my eMail.

I would be very interested in any code that will help – thanks again.

I guess if they use the same driver then it would be straight forward from there.

Are you interested in making a Delphi Object Pascal conversion ?

Regards Andy

Hi Calum, You mentioned C# code for device driver interfacing, would you be so kind as to advise ?

Plus, I need pascal version, any thoughts ?
