[QUOTE="Micropolis, post: 1164442, member: 96567"] Dear community, the latest development cycle for my Monitoring Collection tools has been started a few hours before to identify latest issues and to improve the user experience. In the first post of this thread you can find the latest builds. Highlight of this rollout is the implementation of Shared Data Support to allow 3rd party or other external applications to get and display information from the monitoring tools. Therefore the settings menu, the internal data structures and the monitoring routines itself were extended and improved. What is shared memory support and which possibilities do we have: By using this .NET technology, 3rd party plugins or applications has the chance to use provided information from other applications. The only requirement is the knowledge about the name of the shared memory segment and the data contract. To illustrate how this can be implemented by using C#, a test application for the Memory Monitor tool has been attached to the first post of this thread. It contains the source code and a compiled version to test and understand the proceeding. Please be aware, that the test application needs access to the appropriate monitoring tool. I suggest to execute the test tool in the same directory where the referenced monitoring tool is located. Additionally a first Windows desktop gadget application, which use this technology, has been implemented and added to the package. [ATTACH]172768[/ATTACH] In case anyone wants to have an example how the feature can be used in a MediaPortal plugin, I'm able to post source code snippets here on behalf. [USER=26149]@Brudertac[/USER]: Sorry for my late reply. It is a pity that the way I'll try to implement does not show a positive result. Nevertheless I've decided to pause the digging through the Nvidia driver and API, from my point of view it doesn't make sense currently to develop against a black box. Maybe - when the money is available - I would buy a cheap card to have better development opportunities. Thank you again for your support in the last weeks. Regards, Micropolis [/QUOTE]
