Calling functions that are in a class based DLL (MFC extention DLL)

Calling functions that are in a class based DLL (MFC extention DLL)

I have a DLL written in VC++ using MFC exteintion DLL.

The functions are used to extract information from a hardware card.

eg.:

class AFX_EXT_CLASS WSDevice : public cAsyncSocket

This is a class in a DLL. There are a number of functions in this DLL that we need to call from Labview 5.0

How do we call these functions?

Normally (in VC++ /C++) we ceate a instance of this class like WSDeviceObj and use the function call :

WSDeviceObj.fucntion name

Kindly Help.

This forum is for discussing Measurement Studio for Visual C++. For LabVIEW questions about DLL calls, you should use the LabVIEW->General section of Developer's Exchange.

The most probable answer to your question is that you will have to create C style functions as entry points to the DLL that will create you WSDevice object and call functions on it. LabVIEW's Call Library function support C style DLL's.
