How to involve C code with labview 7.1 ?

[obreuille]

Hello,

I'm programming a automatic test bench in a lab. To do that, I would like to implement

my algoruthms of tests in c code. I would like to use gcc (under UNIX) and Labview 7.1

(under Windows). I don't actually know the way to make c code and labview files

communicate.

Thanks to people who will help me.

Please take a look at the Online Help for calling DLLs from LabVIEW. Also, search NI's support site for articles and examples.

You can't really create Windows compatible binaries with the normal Unix versions of GCC. Ok, if you would be intimately familiar with all the in and outs of the Wine project you might be able to do that, but I doubt there are more than a few dozen people world wide who could do that. What you will need is at least a tool chain such as MinGW, with special support for Windows Portable Executable file format. Most easily it is done with Visual C.
