AD2 .net UWP

[Weevil]

Hi all,

i used the Analog Discovery for some projects in python. Now i would like to switch the environment to .net UWP. Unfortunately, as i got, the standard dwf.dll can not be used in uwp. Is there any possibility to use the AD2 in an uwp project?

Hi @Weevil

You can find the CS and VB wrappers in WF SDK/ samples/ cs and vb

Hi @attila

thank you very much for your quick response! For standard WPF and WinForms project this works fine. 

For my uwp application this does not work and i run into an exception. As i read in the microsoft documentation the .dll needs to be compiled as "uwp dll". Would that be possible? Or is there another option?

Hi @Weevil

I wanted to try interfacing UWP with the dll, installed UWP (10GB) but enabling developer mode in Win10 fails...

The dwf.dll exposes C API and it is build with VS2008 for backward compatibility.

Does the following help?

Hi @attila

thank you so much for your effort!

I tried to do so, but the dwf.dll can not be found. Now i started a post at stackoverflow and uploaded an example project.
