Anybody with experience using the shared library NDDS in LabView real time on a PXI RT Controller?

[momolxg]

Using LabView on a PXI RT Controller, I need to feed data using the NDDS communication shared library (Windows XP) over glass fibre to the central control computer.
I am looking for anybody who has experience with calling the NDDS shared library from LabView on an RT controller ( using the RTX real time extension for Windows).

Is such a plan feasible?

Thanks

Hi,

It's not clear to me whether you are using LabVIEW Real-Time for ETS or LabVIEW Real-Time for RTX. ETS is what is usually running on the headless Real-Time PXI controllers. RTX stands for Real-Time Extensions for Windows and runs on a system along with a version of a Windows NT-based OS. I believe it is important to clarify this because the way DLLs are handled is different between the two.

Let me know,

Alejandro

Hello,
I have neither at the moment - but from your question I gather that I will probably have to use ETS as I have Windows XP and not NT.

OK, I understand now that I have to use ETS for my PXI controller

Thanks, Louis

A progress report.
Now running a NDDS Publisher and Subscriber on Windows XP by calling external code via CIN in LabView 7.1.

However our Visual Studio.NET 2003 dll does not run on the PXI RT controller.

It seems that is necessary to specially compile for LabViewRT :

Anybody with practical experience of generating a dll for LabView RT?

Thanks
