How to build a dll with SDK and Visual Studio

Hello,


I am trying to understand how I can create a dll file (like ssc.dll in win32/win64 folder) with my settings or parameters to meet my needs.
I have downloaded the different folders named respectively : SAM-develop, sam-sdk-2017-9-5-r4, and ssc-develop.
I use Visual Studio 2013 for my projects.

- In a webinar from 2013 I remember that SDK does not allow you to modify a simulation module's source code. So my question is : how can I find the source code of ssc.dll to build it myself with VS 2013 ; this will allow me to make changes and I will be able to perform the simulations I want ?

- Is it possible with the cloud coverage (and other parameters) to assess the power that could be produced in the next days (forecasting) instead of using a Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) using and modifying the source code that you provide in my own software ?


Many thanks in advance for your assistance, and I am looking forward to hearing from you,
Respectfully,
Ludovic
