Hi,

On May 20 a new ASI SDK was released and I would like to use it. Can someone give me instructions on how to do that? For instance, I see

and in the V1.15.0430 SDK for the camera I see

Is it as simple as copying the libASICamera2.so.1.15.0430 file to libASICamera2.bin (and do the same for EAF, EFW and USBST4), copy the corresponding .h files to indi-3rdparty/libasi directory and merge the asi.rules files of the different SDK tar balls into one asi.rules file? What about the libASICamera2.a etc files? Do I need to put them somewhere as well?

If someone explains then I can do this and test out. If it works then I could file a pull request for the indi-3rdparty repo as well if you want.


Thanks, Wouter

I now see that the EFW and USBST4 drivers are very old and don't need updating. In this case the EAF driver also has not been renewed so only the ASI (camera) driver needs to be updated. Still, do I need to use the .a files as well?


Wouter

Apparently the CMakeLists.txt contains the driver version and needs to be updated as well.

So my only question remains the .a files.


Wouter

Yes that indeed seems to be all. I can safely ignore the .a files. Jasem, jpaana, would you like me to create a pull request for this?

PR issued and, after a few comments which have led to minor changes, the new drivers have been merged into the indi-3rdparty repo.
