[OpenSPIM] HamamatsuHam, Windows 7 & OpenSPIM

[Alexis Maizel]

Hi Luke,

I have used CoherentCube's as a template and modified the Cobolt code to implement the Shutter API. 
It compiles seamlessly. 
However, OpenSPIM now complains about this new device adapter: "Version Mismatch" (and list it as  "unavailable").

I assume that I use the wrong code base; but I must confess I am now totally lost. Given that my version of OpenSPIM utilises MM v1.4.xx Dev, which MM source code version should I use? 

Alexis
