I installed NIDAQmx 2014 and I am looking for the 64 bit common.dll. I can find the dnet/assembies (64-bit)/current folder but common.dll is not there. The DAQmx.dll and common.native.dll are there. Where can I find the 64 bit common.dll to compile a 64 bit application?
Notes: in the 32 bit folder all the 32 bit dlls are there including common.dll.

Hi John,
NationalInstruments.Common
is platform-agnostic, meaning you can use it in both 32-bit and 64-bit builds. This fact is not explicitly called-out in any of the documentation I found, but I did find the following useful: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/372636F-01/mstudiowebhelp/html/64bitsupport/ .
Note: NationalInstruments.Common
has dependencies which are platform-specific (e.g., NationalInstruments.CommonNative
). You have to make sure that, during deployment, you deploy dependencies that will match the bitness of your application.
