About P3Dv5 SimConnect libraries

Post by Chrisoft »

Hi all,

I use Visual Studio 2015, I don't know if I can compile EXE application or DLL module for Prepar3D v5 with new SimConnect libraries.

Is it possible? Or Must I have Visual Studio 2019?

Thanks in advance! Regards,

Chris.

Install the .NET 4.8 SDK from Microsoft. The you can compile against that.

I use VS2015, and was unable to build against v5 libraries.

The error message was cryptic, but it would appear that a newer VS version is required even though it doesn't appear to be the case.

Newer VS versions add nothing useful.
