Quick Question: Can a labview project be compiled into an activex control or something like it so it can be embedded inside the window of another application?
Details:
I am developing an application for use in our lab evaluating our IC products. The application if very generalized and provides an easy way to control our parts and understand how they work. For various reasons I am not writing this application in Labview.
However, we do use labview for test automation in the lab. It allows us to take data, control test equipment, etc. I would like to interface our labview "tests" with the eval application. I could of course make the two apps talk to each other in various ways but it would be best if I could embed the labview panel inside a window of the other app so that the labview test could be launched and controlled inside our main eval app.
The easiest thing to do would be if I could compile the Labview panel into an Activex control. Is this possible? Is there some other way to achieve the same effect. My app would launch the labview application and would have an parent window for it to reside in.
