Build a C# “Zivid Hello World” Application in Visual Studio on Windows

This tutorial shows how to create and develop a C# application with Zivid in Visual Studio 2022. Note that the steps may vary slightly for other versions of Visual Studio.

Requirements

• Zivid Software

• Visual Studio

• .NET Framework

참고

Zivid uses .NET framework version 4.5.2. For more information, see .NET framework version.

Instructions

Create a new project

Run Visual Studio, then click Create new project, or File → New → Project…. Choose Console App for Visual C#.

Then, add your project name, location, and .NET version. In this tutorial, we will use the following file name and location:

Location	C:workZividHelloWorld
C# file name	ZividHelloWorld.cs
.NET version	.NET Framework 4.8.0

Add the main C# code

Replace the code in ZividHelloWorld.cs with the following code snippet:

C#

using System;

namespace ZividHelloWorld
{
    class ZividHelloWorld
    {
        static int Main()
        {
            try
            {
                var zivid = new Zivid.NET.Application();
                Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Error: " + ex.Message);
                return 1;
            }
            return 0;
        }
    }
}

Add reference to Zivid .NET API

We must add a reference to the Zivid .NET API to run the code sample. Right-click on your project in Solution Explorer, then click Add → Project Reference… → Browse. Navigate to C:Program FilesZividbin and add ZividCoreNET.dll and ZividVisualizationNET.dll.

Select the correct platform target

Right click on your project again, then click Properties. Under Build → General, change Platform target to x64.

Add post-build event command line code

In the same Build page, under Events, add the following code block to the Post-build event event command line:

if $(ConfigurationName) == Debug GOTO Debug
if $(ConfigurationName) == Release GOTO Release
goto Error

:Debug
xcopy "$(ZIVID_INSTALL_FOLDER)\bin_debug\*.dll" "$(TargetDir)" /Y
exit /B 0

:Release
xcopy "$(ZIVID_INSTALL_FOLDER)\bin\*.dll" "$(TargetDir)" /Y
exit /B 0
:Error
echo Unsupported config
exit /B 1

Run the program

Now we have set up and configured everything. Run the program by pressing F5 key.
