I have troubles getting the channel count using PCANBasic.GetValue method.
Return is always the following error -> TPCANStatus.PCAN_ERROR_ILLPARAMTYPE.
Sounds like I am not using the method properly.
However, I followed the sample code examples provided in documentation.
Any clue of what goes wrong here ?

Code: Select all

            uint iChannelsCount;
            TPCANStatus stsResult;
            // preinitialize
            stsResult = PCANBasic.GetValue(PCANBasic.PCAN_NONEBUS, TPCANParameter.PCAN_ATTACHED_CHANNELS_COUNT, out iChannelsCount, sizeof(uint));

Hello,

Sorry, this is a common mistake.
Windows was using an older .dll than the one I expected.
Copying the version 4.4.0.288 in the root folder of my project solved the issue.

Many thanks for your help.
You can close the ticket.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback!

Best Regards
