Re: [Flexradio] Visual C# and PowerSDR Question
Thanks guys, guess it doesn't surprise me. Microsoft doesn't have a clue when it comes to backwards compatibility. But I wanted to make sure I wasn't leaving out some libraries or files or something simple. And yeah, all this object oriented coding leaves my old procedural head spinning! :) Thanks again, Jerry Sharp, KD0GS Jim Lux wrote: At 09:14 PM 7/9/2006, Jerry Sharp wrote: Hi all, was wondering, will Microsoft Visual C# Express Edition 2005 work with the current PowerSDR source code, or do I need an older version of the compiler? snip ___ FlexRadio mailing list FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archive Link: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ FlexRadio Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com

Sure they do.. their clue is that they want people to move to the latest version, so they don't have to support the older versions, and the carrot they use is free. If you look at their business model, backwards compatibility isn't a big selling point or profit center. But I wanted to make sure I wasn't leaving out some libraries or files or something simple.

The current version of PowerSDR is built with, and compatible with, the previous rev of VC# (2003). Unfortunately, the toolchain for that one is not free. I downloaded the free 2005 version from Microsoft, then all the PowerSDR source code using SVN. Just playing around I did a build on the current source code, and that resulted in several errors and a bunch of warnings. My new build of PowerSDR does run, but I get a message stating that PowerSDR must be shut down and do I want to send a bug report to Microsoft.. At the very least, I suspect there's a difference in which .NET framework version would be used. I do have a background of working with old legacy software, like Cobol and PL/I, but C++ and C# are completely new environments to me. C# is like C only in name and in some details of syntax. The way in which you interact with the OS is totally different, although there are legacy wrapper functions. For example, there's no stdio.h style file access (fopen, fclose), but rather, you use various methods (e.g. File.Open) found in the System.IO namespace.
