C++ classes

[Mikefr00]

I'm using CVI 8.0.  From what I see the compiler is still a 'c' only compiler. Is this true.

I'd like to introduce some class (C++) functionality.  Is the only way to do this, through an external compiler????

Thanks,

MikeF

This is true.  It is still compliant only with ANSI C.

The C++ additions are not compatible.

Darn double print. (and it seems you can't delete a post....)

Hi MikeF,

There are also a couple other options for using C++ and CVI. See the following links for more information.

Is LabWindows/CVI a Compiler and What C Functions Can LabWindows/CVI Use? 
Does LabWindows/CVI Support C++? 
Integrating LabWindows/CVI with Microsoft Visual C++

Howdy Mikefr00,

If you have some C++ code that you would like called from LabWindows/CVI, one option could be to create a DLL out of the C++ code and then call it from C.  Check out Using Dynamic Link Libraries with LabWindows/CVI tutorial.  

Also, if your curoius about the CVI compiler, read the LabWindows/CVI Compiler KnowledgeBase.

Additionally, when mixing C and C++, I like to refer the How to mix C and C++ website. Its actually got some good information in it.

Hope this helps!

Best Regards,
