A sizeable part of my day job is to program PLCs in the worst software
environment ever (for the curious, simatic tia portal, actually I'm
mostly using the older, only marginally better, step 7, but the times
they are a-changin').
Said piece of sh^H^Hfine engineering, provides a dll to automate some
tasks, however, being a steaming pile of...fine engineering, it's made
with dot net and the instructions on how to use it only mention visual
something (page 12 of this document
https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/attachments/108716692/108716692_TIA_Openness_GettingStartedAndDemo_V14SP1_en.pdf).
Is it possible to someway use it with fpc?
I tried the "import type library.." menu item that lazarus provides with
no success ("error loading the dll", strangely enough localized even if
my lazarus is in english, so I suppose that comes from windows).
The file command under Linux says:
Siemens.Engineering.dll: PE32 executable (DLL) (console) Intel 80386
Mono/.Net assembly, for MS Windows
TIA (pun intended)
