This driver plugin is a native DLL under Windows. which support the display through network ( such as Ethernet, WiFi, etc ). It works with ESP8266 based device ( https://github.com/eeyrw/LcdTcp ) by now.
If you are not about to build plugin, you can just download the release from GitHub release page.
You can build it with MSVC or mingw32. I create a project file with IDE CodeBlocks. When you use MSVC, you should specify the .def file to generate correct DLL. When you use mingw, you should add -m32 to compiler flag and -static to linker flag. Because I discover that if you do not attach -static, mingw will dynamically link it's libgccXXX.dll, which is not expected.
It's fairly simple. Copy the dll to LCD_SMARTIE_ROOT\displays
and set IP address and port of your display.
If you are failed to run LCD Smartie you could edit LCD_SMARTIE_ROOT\config.ini
and append following lines to category [Communication Settings]
:
DisplayDLLName=LCD_TCP_MINGW_DLL.dll
DisplayDLLParameters=192.168.1.134:2400
