Where I can find these definitions from?

[Lab]

I don't know where these definitions like File,Path come from? If I write the C file that CIN generated,I am afraid that I can't get.:(

A more basic question is why you are writing a CIN to write a file to disk? Are you using it as a practice case for writing CINs? If not there's no reason for going to the trouble. LV has all the file IO capabilities you might need.

thx for your answer,first,I am indeed using it as a practice ,because I need to use the card of not NI,I hope I can know how operate hardware in C++?But I find that there are so much definitions in the example about CIN .Perhaps their original definition were closed in some files,really?I have trouble in using C++,because of its various definitions.Do you know the
company ADVANTECH?I am using their cards,it provide us with Labview driver,of course ,they used CIN,but i can't see the C file of the CIN.if I used the card that we made by ourselves,how I can drive it in Labview?

Hello

Check out the External Code Reference Manual. This should give you an idea on how to set up CIN's for use in LabVIEW. Personally, I find if I can to integrate C/C++ with LabVIEW, dll's are alot more easier to handle. You can call dll functions in labview using the "Call Library function node".
First though, I would browse thru the manual to get a feel for using external code in Labview.

Hope this helps
