Sam Widdet created a new topic ' Editing an existing driver' in the forum. 6 years ago

Hello,

My question is very simple, but I am a complete beginner to anything coding-related so I hope you can have patience with me.

My indi setup with astroberry is fully working with the exception of the Trutech filter wheel driver. By default it only supports five filter slots, whereas the filter wheel I have has eight slots.

I tried to edit the driver by downloading it via github.com/indilib/indi and simply changing the code so it sets the maximum number of slots to eight.

My problem now is I have no idea how to compile this .cpp file and turn it into a functioning replacement driver, if that is even possible at all. It has not been for lack of trying; I've been looking for a solution on the forums and the manual for several hours, but I haven't seen anything that I can understand. I tried to do the tutorials, but I ran into issues there as well.

If anyone could explain the process to me simply then I would be very grateful

Thank you
