[Is this possible?]

Thanks Peter,

I have all spam filtering off, but yes somehow my ISP failed to deliver it. Anyway, thanks for the reply, and allocation. You usually do respond unusually quick, so that's why I asked.

[Performance Question]

I notice that in FS-Interrogate II, that the data included in the .FSI does not include the actual TOKEN var or ID, filled in. I am guess this is because once people start accessing variables through FSUIPC they find it easier/more effective, and then don't bother doing it using the actual token variables themselves defined in gauge.h.

This leads to my question. From within a .gau dll, if I am reading data, is there much if any performance hit using FSUIPC vs. using lookup_var()?

How about the difference between writing using FSUIPC and using trigger_key_event() where available?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Patrick

[Writing to FSUIPC from .gau]

Thanks Pete. I think I must have been too tired to look at that last night, but I couldn't help it, I was excited about what I could do with it.

Take care, and after I experiment, if I have more questions after doing my homework, I'll post.

Apparently I needed to have FS-Interrogate in the FS9 directory.

So, all ok now.

[Writing to FSUIPC from .gau]

Yes, I read that part, and put the .lib in my \lib directory.

I also read that I need to use that function, but where is info on what functions are available and their prototypes and documentation?

I am pretty sure that I looked through things pretty well.

Sorry, I've been working 20 hour days, and even my own .cpp code is starting to look strange.

[Writing to FSUIPC from .gau]

I write gauges in c++ with VS, and just downloaded the FSUIPC SDK and had a look. I don't see anywhere any sample code on how to read/write vars.

Am I just going to have to read the .h's? Or did I miss something in the docs?

[Need help getting FS-Interrogate2 to connect to FS]

Hi, might be the wrong place to ask this, but I have FS-Interrogate 2 installed, and running fine. However, it does not seem to be able to see FS and connect with it.

I have the latest FSUIPC installed in FS9, and am a registered user.

Only thing I can think of is that FS-Interrogate can't see FS9 as I did not install it in the default directory.

Anyone have any ideas or know where I can get help?
