Hello Marcel
The library VERSION can be checked from the library.properties file in the SiMessagePort (it can be opened with notepad as it is a test file) - I listed the details above but I am sure that nothing is different.
Can I please just ask you to confirm the following.
The library that you downloaded and unzipped, you then manually copied/moved the completely unzipped folder it to your library folder as per the path you listed, then inside the folder there are just 2 other folders, examples and src, and the library.properties file ?

Also, when you are testing within the IDE - you are clicking on File, then Examples, then scroll and select Si Massage Port then select BasicExample. ?

I am really perplexed as to why two of you are getting issues ?

I have even tried copying your exact code listing and then compiling and there is no issue here.

name=SI Message Port
version=3.7.0
author=Sim Innovations
maintainer=Sim Innovations <corjan@siminnovations.com>
sentence=Allows to couple Arduino projects to Air Manager or Air Player
paragraph=
category=Device Control
url=https://www.siminnovations.com

Did uninstall library. Did reinstall it. Have the folders:

..Documents\Arduino\libraries\SiMessagePort
examples
src
library.properties

Selected the example via the menu, as I always do... still the same error.

"The library VERSION can be checked from the library.properties"

I just had the idea that you may have an older version that is working and SI updated the library meanwhile and it does not work anymore. ;) That was my hope. And would explain the we both have the same problem at the same time... ;)

@jph Could you please send me your SiMessagePort library as a zip?

I tried another computer which is, except for X-Plane, pretty clean. Installed Arduino, installed library, opened example, compile -> error. Opened another default example, compile -> success.

Marcel, I am utterly baffled. :| :?
I cannot think of anything else to try as I am unable to reproduce the issue at all here.

Thank you, Joe. But I meant your local folder. This file seems to be the once I did also downloaded from the SI Wiki. ;)

@Ralph Would it be possible to get access to an older version of the library for testing? This would be so helpful in many situations - same for the AM and AP software... ;)

Compiling works with your file and I can see the Board under devices in AM! Success!

Thank you so much! Now it is a good moment for having breakfast. :lol:
