Driver Usage

Post by nuclearpenguin80 »

I was wondering if it would be possible to get a list of functions of the drivers (specifically, I'm interested in the FutabaVFD_LCD.dll driver file). I have a 4x20 screen, and would like to be writing my own programs for it, using this driver (as it seems to be working wonderfully well). I'm very experienced in C++ and C#, but have no experience in writing driver files. Any help?

There's a bit of info on the functions that Smartie drivers provide here: http://forums.lcdsmartie.org/viewtopic.php?t=1419

and a driver template/framework for VC++2005 here: http://forums.lcdsmartie.org/viewtopic.php?t=1415

Also search the hardware and plugins forum sections for similar posts. I've used the above framework to develop a custom driver, but don't have any experience with using these drivers to access displays in other apps.
