Has anyone found a good way to communicate with a CORBA server using LabVIEW? We started using a product called COMet from Iona that acts as a COM (ActiveX) to CORBA bridge, but unfortunately a quirk in the LabVIEW ActiveX interface prevented it from working. At this point it looks like we will need to create an interface DLL in C/C++ and call that from LabVIEW, but we would prefer to use a more direct method if one exists. Any ideas?

QUOTE (AutoMeasure @ Oct 23 2008, 09:16 PM) NI states that "high-speed USB M Series devices deliver bidirectional streaming at up to 1.25 MS/s for analog input" (see http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/4473#toc2). Also, this article (http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/3705) indicates that the USB signal streaming technology used in the USB-6251 should be able to stream data over USB at up to 3.2MS/s so the speed of the USB-6251 doesn't appear to be limited by the USB interface.
