I have a client/server application which the client I am trying to develop using Labview. When I use to communicate the server and the client using the program provided by the manufacter, the system works perfectly.
Now, I am trying to develop a system using labview, because I need to get another things.
I have the DLL provided by the manufacter and the .h too, so I can check the functions parameters. One of these functions needs to be called using a struct element. Probably, the function's DLL instantiates the elements of this struct. I use the call library function node to do it.
When I receive the data, the function returns to me the struct that I passed as a parameter before, and then I can read all the elements of the struct, except the string element that returns nothing. The struct elements that are numerical, I can read them perfectly.
Another thing that is important to say, is that the string data was not returned in fact by the DLL function that the system calls. I have to pass a pointer (I use it as unsigned 16 in Labview, but I tried before as string and unsigned 😎 as a parameter, and this pointer will point to the memory location that the string is. When I try to read what is returned by the function, I can read nothing. The same function returns that the size of data that is returning is 17 bytes.
How can I solve it?
Thank you in advance
