Building without CDT codes

Post by Andrea » Mon Nov 20, 2023 7:21 pm

Hi,

I'm in New Zealand so not using the ADA codes.

I'd like to compile the software (so I can make a change to SMS handling) but I'm running into an issue that it can't find CDT. That's true, I don't have the codes.

Is there a way to build without them? Or some other workaround, e.g. a stub version?

The 'stub' version of the CDT.dll can be found in the 'Required dlls' folder.

You'll want to follow similar steps that are required for OpenDentalHelp (drop the CDT reference and add it back):
Error: The name 'OpenDentalHelp' does not exist in the current context - In the OpenDental project, remove the OpenDentalHelp reference. Then right-click on "References" -> "Add Reference". Select the Browse dropdown and the Browse button. Locate the OpenDentalHelp.dll within the "Required dlls" folder and click Add.

The best thing about a boolean is even if you are wrong, you are only off by a bit.
