Support use of Beckhoff ADS library on win32 systems #305

Closed cowo78 closed 1 month ago

cowo78 commented 2 years ago

Beckhoff ADS library can be built on win32 systems and used instead of TcAdsDll, thus simplifying install and usage procedures. See https://github.com/Beckhoff/ADS/pull/156 for more info. Trying to load ADS library on win32 and disable router functions depending on undelying C library.

The above PR will not be merged as Beckhoff is not interested in keeping an usable C interface, so if you want to integrate the changes in your own fork let me know.

I think I would like to stick as close as possible to the Beckhoff ADS.
