python-dlt Windows support

Hello, is it possible to adapt this library to work on Windows too?

We do not use it on Windows internally and we have no experience in making the ctypes work on Windows. If someone can make it work and the patch does not look too horrible, we can include that functionality. At least the part that loads the C library (.so in Linux and .dll in Windows) likely needs to change. The rest should be platform agnostic, but you never know unless you actually try.

Thank you for your quick response! The first step would be to have a dll version of libdlt.so. Looking on the Internet I cannot find it. It seems to be part of dlt-daemon source code which is GNU/Linux only. Can you confirm it?

Yes, the library comes from https://github.com/GENIVI/dlt-daemon there are some references to it working in Windows at https://at.projects.genivi.org/wiki/display/PROJ/About+DLT-Transport

Did anyone do modification in library in order to work on Windows as well?

Hi, about the 'ctypes' issue, maybe you would try to consider 'pywin32-ctypes' :

As for installation, would a "pip" package be available, like :

pip install python-dlt

Thanks...
