• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Hello,

My panel use the fabulous XMLTools.dll (my code use only XMLVars and LoggerX commands).

So, some user have moved from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and it seems that XMLtools doesn't work in some PC.

I am not sure but, I don't see another reason why my panel cannot read data in CSV file.

here is the link with user report : http://talk.pafs.wf/viewtopic.php?f=23&t=2823&p=29588#p29581

Do you know if this issue is known ?

Francois,

Are you including XMLTools installer with your copy? I don't see any reference of it in that thread.
I say this because I notice your user's DLL.XML, besides having XMLTools lines properly defined, contains the following:

<Name>XMLVars</Name>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
<Path>XMLVars.dll</Path>
<DllStartName>module_init</DllStartName>
<DllStopName>module_deinit</DllStopName>
</Launch.Addon>

Which must be removed, as only one copy of XMLTools classes is allowed for the lib to work as expected (In that case XMLVars would be duplicated).
XMLTools installer automatically removes XMLVars and LOGGER entries in DLL.XML when they are found.
Also ask him to remove XMLVars.dll from FSX folder, to avoid future confusions.

Hello,

Thanks for your answer.

@Heretic : user has run VC++Redist without any changes

@Tom : You are right, There is a XMLVars.dll declaration in his dll.xml. Thanks ! I am going to tell to user to remove this declaration.

Thanks for your help and long life to XMLTools !

bad news.
User has deleted the XMLVars.dll section of dll.xml, and XMLvars.dll wasn't in FSX directory...and no changes....
We search....

Have him delete all instances of XMLTools and related modules (Logger or XMLvars, etc... the .dll files and any entries in dll.xml) and then have him run the XMLTools 2.01 installer again.
