use c++ dll that exports a class in LabWindows

[missmarie]

Hi

I have a .dll writen in C++ that can be used by creating an object in the dll class and then pointing on a function of the dll (ex: test->MOVE()). How can I manage to use that dll in Labwindows as it is coded in C?

Thanks

One approach would be to use Visual Studio C++ to create a wrapper dll, where all the C++ dll functionality is re-arranged by restricting the external interface to be compatible with plain C. CVI would then have no trouble interfaceing to this wrapper dll. How practical this is depends on the complexity of the C++ dll.

This kind of activity is becoming more common - perhaps we should give it a name: how about C-- ?
