SDRplay support for Windows

[DeonMarais64]

Hi, From https://github.com/ryanvolz/radioconda/issues/29 I was able to build and install sdrPlaySupport.dll to the modules directory However, it looks like there is still something missing. Any suggestions on how to resolve it ?

Just guessing, but it's probably not finding the sdrPlay library from your base system that, of course, sdrPlaySupport.dll depends on. Maybe try copying that library from wherever it is into C:\Programs\Radio\GNURadio\radioconda\Library\bin?

Thank you, I tried to do as you suggested, however I am still getting an error albeit a different one,

Before copying any version of sdrplay_api.dll into C:\Programs\Radio\GNURadio\radioconda\Library\bin

Module found: C:\Programs\Radio\GNURadio\radioconda\Library/lib/SoapySDR/modules0.8/sdrPlaySupport.dll
  LoadLibrary() failed: The specified module could not be found.

After placing "C:\Program Files\SDRplay\API\x64\sdrplay_api.dll" into C:\Programs\Radio\GNURadio\radioconda\Library\bin

Module found: C:\Programs\Radio\GNURadio\radioconda\Library/lib/SoapySDR/modules0.8/sdrPlaySupport.dll
  LoadLibrary() failed: A dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed.

Then I tried the x86 version of the library, After placing "C:\Program Files\SDRplay\API\x86\sdrplay_api.dll" into C:\Programs\Radio\GNURadio\radioconda\Library\bin

Module found: C:\Programs\Radio\GNURadio\radioconda\Library/lib/SoapySDR/modules0.8/sdrPlaySupport.dll
  LoadLibrary() failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.
