Library for stdf file

[jm73]

Hello,

I'm looking for a libray to read and write STDF file under Windows.

I have tried open-source libraries like libstdf but without success.

Do you know a library which can be easily used under Labwindiows/CVI (like Dll) and works fine ?

Thanks.

I don't know about stdf, but what problem did you have with libstdf ? It
wouldn't compile directly in CVI ? You can certainly compile it in some
Windows compiler as a .lib or .dll and then link it to your CVI app.

Hello,

In CVI and LabVIEW you are able to read from and write to Binary and Text files. The STDF file is simply a binary file with a set format which you will have to understand and then use with the CVI binary file functions.

Otherwise, you could use the libstdf.

I tried to compile the libstdf under CVI but there are many build errors.

The libray is not really C compliant: unknown keywords(inline, ...), variable declaration in the middle of function, ...
Some include files for windows are missing. I got it from the doxygen help on the website!
etc...
I tried to compile under visual studio, it doesn't work (a visual studio project exists in the 0.3 version of libstdf but not in the 0.4 version)

I have started to write my own stdf parser. In fact the stdf specification is not so hard to implement...
