jwhitaker@revit Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 Lua Gen are drivers created in Lua know as "driverworks" driver.Av Gen are drivers that are created in the old style either with the old driver SDK or the Driver Wizard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanE Posted May 13, 2011 Share Posted May 13, 2011 The <control> XML tag specifies what C++ driver module to load.In the case of av_gen, it loads a C++ compiled driver (.c4l) on the controller that implements the 'Driver Wizard' driver functionality (one-way IR and Serial).lua_gen loads the C++ compiled .c4l on the controller that implements DriverWorks, including the functionality of the Lua interpreter, for two-way Serial / Network drivers.The <driver> section, which is related, tells ComposerPro what C# modules to load in order to be able to display properties pages, events, commands, and conditionals within ComposerPro. The DriverWorks <driver> section is just called "DriverWorks", whereas the Driver Wizard <driver> section is a number, "100050".RyanE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
