How to Ping an IP Address from LabVIEW NXG?

[Jim_K]

I use the source code from How to Ping an IP Address from LabVIEW?  How do I do this from LabVIEW NXG?

I tried the conversion utility from LabVIEW to LabVIEW NXG, and got code with a broken run that has placeholders for all the .NET calls to Windows OS ping.

I tried Select Assembly from DotNetInterface.dni, and find that the only choice when searching for ping does not show any entry points (see attached).

The easiest way - in both NXG and Classic - is to use system exec to execute the ping command.  You can capture stdout and parse for info.
