The Roboclaw Class Library is a project that will compile to a dll. You cant just compile the USB.cs file by itself and get a working program.

1. You need to learn how to program in C#(or any other dot.Net language). Based on your question you are so far from understanding anything about C# programming and class libraries that we cant really help you. I recommend getting a begginers book on C# as a starting point. You need to be able at a minimum to write a simple C# program that functions and understand WHY it works. Just copying and pasting in a hello world program isnt going to do it.

2. Once you have some background on programming in C# you need to understand that a class library(dll) is not a stand alone program. You use the functions in the dll in your own program. Once you get to the point that you have a project that references the class library function calls we will be able to work with you(eg help you with how you initialize the class library and connect to a Roboclaw and send commands and read data back from the Roboclaw).
