I've got a 3rd party DLL I call from within my application. One of the functions returns a pointer to a variable length null terminated string. I use the mysterious GetValueByPointer.xnode to dereference the string and return it's value. This works great from within the Labview development environment. I'm using 2013Sp1. But when I compile the application into an executable, the xnode returns an error 7. It appears the DLL is returning a valid pointer, but the xnode can't dereference it. My hunch is that the pointer is crossing some kind of protected boundary, but I don't know for sure. I suppose I could write a wrapper around the DLL call, but I really don't want to have to do that if there is a simple workaround. Any ideas?
