Example Programs

[Simple Minded Engineer]

I installed the Universal Library and was pleased to see the amount of example applications included...until I tried to use them. They require .NET framework 4.0. You can't even download it anymore so none of the examples work. Microsoft terminated support in 2016. Please consider updating them for us.

 

BTW, the Universal Library was NOT compatible with my Universal Remote at home... the disappointments in life...

Hello @Simple Minded Engineer.

On your Windows system, use the Windows search field in the Taskbar to locate the appwiz.cpl applet.  Once the applet is showing, click on the Turn Windows features on or off option in the upper left corner.  In the Windows Features, select the .NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0) feature.

 

Click the OK button to close the window and then minimize or close the applet.

Launch Microsoft Visual Studio and then open a MCC UL example.  In the Solution Explorer, right click on the example name and then select Properties.  On the Application tab, select the Target Framework (i.e. .NET Framework 3.5).

In the popup change window, click the YES button.  You should be able to use the example and develop your own application.

 

What Universal Remote are you attempting to use with the Universal Library?  The MCC Universal Library supports MCC devices.

That did it. Thank you for the help.

 

The Universal Remote was a Sony UTVR31415 model.

Thanks!!
