How will you be exchanging data, Unless you plan to reuse his original code and essentialy create a front end?

Probably a discussion for a different thread ... but basically I will wrap his C code in a DLL and create a C# application that uses the DLL, calling into his code via the DLL interface allowing me to develop the app independently of his code - so if he upgrades his code I can just update the DLL and not my GUI code!
That is the plan anyway, its just investigation at the moment into whether this is feasible.
Edit: This also allows any language capable of supporting DLLs to use it! So you could create a VB app that uses the same DLL if you so wished ...

I'd wait till I prove the concept works barnacle, no point in wasting your time if it doesn't!

For any software engineers sniggering at my efforts, I'd just like to say that this is an essentially linear approach at present, really just a proof-of-concept. Elegant code happens later! Oh and Barnacle, for god's sake man, use the proper parlance! Call it a prototype and announce the fact you are going to be using agile development via the scrum methodology so that you can synergise the product development and voila, no one cares what the code looks like now, they will just have confused looks on their faces! -wolfman

Neil what's the main benefit of bypassing the widget? My software is not standalone it uses the Barnacle widget and just reads data from that. It should output errors in English as well as binary (so you can check that its got it right) and the last function will be to allow the user to alter the widget display with drop down list boxes. I may add some graphing and telemetry functions too.

I have absolutely no idea what any of this computer speak is about but it all looks very interesting. For a man who does have a computer but has no idea how or why it works, is this thing that Neil has invented easy enough for me to put on a lap top and make things happen. My computing technical ability stretches to putting a disc in a laptop and waiting for the disc to change the picture on the screen unfortunately. Give me anything mechanical or electrical and I can fix it, give me a computer and I'm stuck

Updated versionhttp://www.nailed-barnacle.co.uk/coupe/startrek/startrek_bosch_v2.zipUsage as the last version; startrek_bosch_v2 4 (assuming your USB is at serial port com4). Minor bugfixes: missing error counts inserted, changed some warning colour levels slightly, text cue for error deletion. Major internal changes: to make life simpler for anyone trying to wrap a GUI around it, I've simplified the calls to the packet handling for the comms signal. Also factored out the conversion from error type/code to text. Could still use the initialisation routine factoring out - next time?
