.net 4 with labview 8.6. Anyway to get labview to recognise?

[stewbert]

Hi, i stuck with an old 8.6 version but need to access .net 4.0 dll's.
Anyone know how to get labview to see them?
I have tried adding a configuration file as described in the help files but this dosent work unless im putting the wrong text in (from the 2011 help)

It seems to me there are a number of possibly painful alternatives, but that the least painful might be to migrate the Project from LabVIEW 8.6 to a version of LabVIEW that includes support for .NET 4.0.  Otherwise you probably have to do a fair amount of tricky and un-intuitive "argument molding and un-molding" before calling the .NET 4 .dll appropriately.  Messy.

Thanks bob, i thought as much 🙂 i, just revert to an older version of the dll to keep life simple.
