Which is the best way to pass some simple parameters (int32s and bits) to and from a C application and a Fpga LV 8 program?
Thank you very much.

Since you didn't get any answer, lets give it a try...
If you want a c application to communicate with a labview vi on the FPGA, I guess the easiest way is to make a VI that communicates with the FPGA code (with a FIFO or with controls), and make a dll of that VI. I don't think the communication protocol is open, so directly communicating with the FPGA will be hard. Perhaps there is some CVI code to do this...
If you want a labview application (you can build normal apps with LV8 FPGA) to communicate with a c program, I suggest you search the forum for memory mapping or tcp\ip communication.
If this doesn't answer your question, please specify a bit more what you want. (What is "best", the fastest, easiest, and what is your setup exactly?)

Wiebe.
