I wanted to test to add some new features to the B2S Server.

Does anyone have a hint what is needed to compile it?    I am new to VBA and C#, but wanted to give it a try.

 

Is Visual Studio 2015 needed? Any hints are very appreciated!

I got an answer elsewhere:   VS 2022 should work, and VS 2019 and earlier is already being tested to compile the B2S Server.

Update, it is rather easy.

 

1. download VS 2019 Community edition

2. open the solution files

3. and then build it.

I can confirm that VS 2022 works as well, but it wants to upgrade the project files to use .NET 4.8 instead of 4.0.

 

Microsoft even has a Windows 11 VM's (Hyper-V, Parallels, VirtualBox and VMWare) prepared with VS2022 incl. WSL + Ubuntu and everything needed to test it out.

 

The link is to the german page, could not find the english one, search for WinDev2202Eval.HyperVGen1.zip

Now the move to github is finalized:  https://github.com/vpinball/b2s-backglass

 

So now it should be easier for everyone to send in patches!
