Communication between c++ and labview

Hi,
I'm a student who have to make connection between a c++ program
running on Linux and a labview program running on Windows.
I don't know very well labview... 😞
And I want to know if I can send orders from the Linux/c++ program to
Windows/labview (orders are "start data acquisition", "stop",
"pause"...).

Linux/c++ <----------------------------------> Windows/labview
client TCP/IP server



May I use DLL on Windows/labview, or does a specific module exist...?
It would be cool, if this operation is possible, to have some examples
for linking these 2 programs.

Thank you!!

LabVIEW has standard functions to communicate through TCP/IP. No need
for DLL calls at all. You can both create
servers or clients so you are
completely free in what and how you want to implement your communication.

Take a look at the TCP functions in the Communication->TCP palatte. Also
to see how TCP functions are used checkout the examples in
Help->Examples Finder and look for TCP.
