  • Modified from X86 Version OPC Client 0.4a by beharrell
  • Add some Hint info
  • X64 Version uses includes files form OPC Core Component 3.0.106.
    • Install OPC Core Component is NECESSARY, I bundled the 3.0.105.1 version (seems more popular).
  • Tested with MatrikonOPC Simulation Server
    • You can get it free at offical site after reg.
    • Start OPC Simulation Server, then build project. Run the demo, input hostname, then input server ID, it should work.
  • I advice you to use hostname instead of IP address for reasons below.
    • If you want to access OPC by IP, you have to enable RemoteRegistry service in services.msc
    • Also , for UAC problem after Vista, your program must run as admin to avoid some issue.
