[TRNSYS-users] Rebuilding a DLL (Editing existed type in Trnsys Lib)

[Jeff Thornton]

There is a nice guide in the TRNSYS documentation about adding a new
component and creating a DLL for just your component. If you are using
the standard FORTRAN solution provided with purchase, there is a MyType
project already including in the solution. Add your component there and
build the User DLL (making sure to remove it from the TRNSYS DLL
project). Build both the release and debug versions so you have it
available whenever you're running in either TRNSYS mode. 

But if you're not distributing the DLL, it's almost always easier to
just leave it in the main TRNSYS DLL....
