Which version of Smartie are you using? If you have Delphi 6/7 at home, try building a copy out of CVS and see if that works. If not, I should have a release candidate for 5.3.2 up tomorrow. Try that and let me know if it works.

"If you have Delphi 6/7 at home"
How do you mean?

"try building a copy out of CVS and see if that works."

There is an un-compiled source code available with the latest fixes..
If you have delphi instsaled to your system you can download it and compliled to exe and test it

My apologies, it sounded like you had version 3.2.17 of inpout.dll. I'm afraid you have a very old version of Smartie. The current beta is 5.3.2, though the one you see on the website does not have the x64 support in it. I will be posting 5.3.2-rc1 (release candidate) tomorrow, and that will have the 64-bit support. Give that a shot and see if it works.

now you can use this library:

works great with smartie 5.3.2 on x64.

Great!! It works with the LCD Smartie thats on the site now.

Damn Happy. Now wait for Drivers for my PCI-LPT card

Glad it works finally - I missed a few obviouse bugs, and thankfully them0n helpd me see the light

Anyway, its working now as you can see, with existing LCSSmartie, and the next version should allow use of InpOut32 without renaming it - which will make it even easier for those of use with parallel ports...

The next issue will be x64 Vista support - which, If I beleive correctly, may be a bit more difficult, because x64 drivers will need to be "signed" in vista - which I believe will put a stop to a lot of OSS style projects relying on drivers like InpOut

You can also name the file correctly in the zip package so that we dont have to rename it.

I could, but that might not go down too well with the people that actually produced DLPortIO... Im not sure that their license agreemnents state, but for me to distribute a DLL with that name, is probably not a good idea..

Especially as it only had 2 of the funcitons that DLPortIO has (the two that LCD Smartie uses)...

And anyway - where would the LCD Smartie team get the motivation to use the newer DLL

hehe
