Using a C DLL with complex numbers of Labview

Hello

So I would try to use the existing C99 to perform calculations, and for the functions code, the code accepts and returns type numbers 'double complex.   I have spent half a day to find out the hard way that Visual Studio does not complex.h header, so before you spend more time trying to compile a DLL, not done Labview even allows you to send and receive complex of a DLL call numbers?

When I open the node to call a library function and go to settings, the closest return type I see is double 8 bytes, but nothing about the complex... so...   I am not even convinced that this will work... did anyone done this before?

Thank you

Yes, you can use complex numbers. See the example with properly called LabVIEW "" call DLL". There is an example here that deals with complex numbers. You may need to write a wrapper DLL, if.

  • For the complex data type, how to generate the Dll with compatible interface to C/C++

    Hello

    I used the Labview FPGA module to develop test equipment. Now, I need to write a driver that is to be a Dll with compatible interface to C/C++ for this equipment. So that my client who is familiar with C/C++ can call the driver without any study on labview. But I had a few problem on how to convert labview for C/C++ data complex data type. To clearly explain to my question, I have attached a simple example. (see attachment) I try to generate a Dll for the attached example VI and get the the function prototype at the head of the files as below:

    ' void OpenFpgaReference (LStrHandle * RIODevice, TD1 * errorIn, LVRefNum * FPGAVIReferenceOut, TD1 * errorOut).

    As you have known, the type of data "LStrHandle * RIODevice" and "LVRefNum * FPGAVIReferenceOut" Labview data format are. C/C++ do not have this kind of data type and can not reconige it. As a result, I can't call the Dll of C/C++ programming language. How to convert these two data type of labview for the C/C++ compatible data format, and then build the Dll? Anyone know about this?

    The answer is really apprecaited! Thank you in advanced.

    As I found in the following article:

    LVRefNum is the name of resource of LabVIEW VISA or refnum, and "it is impossible to convert LabVIEW VISA name of resource or refnum VISession valid ID."
    This means that external code modules can not access & control the session VISA which is open by labview. But for my purposes, I will not attempt to access this VISA extenal code(C/C++) session. I just hope that save this session VISA in the external code once I opened it in Labview dll; and pass it to the labview dll when needed. While I have not need to login again when I need to control the device. Is it possible to do?

    A LVRefNum is really just a single int32 value. Its meaning is useless for other environments than those who created it so that you Michael not any what in C/C++ caller but pass it back to other functions in your DLL, but this often isn't a problem at all.

    You can take the following statement of the LabVIEW extcode.h headers and add them to your delabviewed header files to make it work in such a way.

    #define Private (T) typedef struct T # _t {void * p ;} * T}

    Private (LVRefNum);

    The LStrHandle you must set a standard C string instead in your export DLL and document what is the size of the string buffer should have if it is an output parameter.

    TD1 error clusters should also be divided into their parameters (C compatible) separate for all items or just to the left of suite entirely.

  • After you rename a folder full of files using LR CC, I now have two of each DNG file with consecutive numbers providing unique names!

    After you rename a folder full of .dng and. MOV files using LR CC, I now have two of each file DNG image with consecutive numbers providing unique names. . MOV files are not affected. Activated with "Bridge" and found it said one is one Mac Application, either in the form of windows. I have Lightroom on Mac and Windows PC with local catalogues which are clouds synchronized (but never on at the same time). Could be the cause of this problem? It is possible that differ from the Mac and Windows version catalogs and their creative together via the Cloud technology synchronization can cause this duplication is obvious when all files are renamed by using a number of automatic sequence?

    Yes, my default sort criteria is by file name as my beginning of file names with a reverse date followed by a sequence number. I think at some stage I must have reproduced all the files on the Windows PC and saved with a different range of sequence numbers after the element of date filenames outside of LR. Sometime later I have imported in the Lightroom. When I decided to rename all of them using this naming convention, I discovered the duplication hiding behind different file names. This turns out to be a lesson on the practices of workflow systems.

  • First HP CASE - implicit multiplication of complex numbers

    When you make the implicit multiplication of complex numbers in CASE the first mode (6975) does the following:

    Enter: (2 + i)(2-i)
    Rewritten (wrongly) as: 2 + i (2-i)
    Returns: 2 + I

    This happens in two (a, b) and (a + b * i) formats:

    (2.1) (2, - 1) becomes 2,1(2,-1) and returns the value 1

    Explicit multiplication of complex numbers seems to work correctly:

    Enter: (2 + i) *(2-i)
    Returns: 5

    Sometimes, the rewriting of implicit multiplication treats the imaginary part of the first complex number as a function call with the second number complex as parameters to the function.

    Apparently this tangent actually proved useful.  He looked more closely into the use of parentheses.

    Review: (1 + i)(1-i)

    What seems to take place the second term, (1 - i), apparently ignored is that CASE trying to make a substitution as in the following example:

    (1 + x) (a + b) becomes (1 + (a + b)) due to a substitution of (a + b), the symbol 'x '.

    However, if this substitution occurs when a value is assigned to 'x', the substitution fails and the initial value of 'x' remains.  This creates the illusion that (a + b) is ignored.

    x: = 2

    (1 + x) (a + b) becomes 1 + x and the result is 3 because 'x' remained the value 2.

    I think that 'I' is treated as if 'i' was assigned to the value sqrt(-1).  The substitution is not in the same way that when a value is assigned to 'x '.

    Remember to purge (x).

    I think you have misunderstood what I wanted. In the specification of the Panel Module tab, you can change the type of data that the function expects. You probably set on the wrong thing. It must be set to an array of numbers where the elements are unsigned 8-bit integers.

  • Cannot use MATLAB MCR DLLS in LabVIEW

    General information:

    We would like to call a Matlab compiled DLL, which is based on the duration of the compiler Matlab (MCR), LabVIEW. We also want to use the LabVIEW Vision of data collection software. Use a map OR frame grabber is installed, and a camera is connected to the card. We were using an evaluation version of LabVIEW to see if you can solve this problem. We tried two versions of LabVIEW 8.6 and 2010.

    The problem:

    The installation program of LabVIEW place dll in the system32 folder. The names of some of these DLLs are generic enough. LabVIEW vision software includes tbb.dll in the System32 folder. Execution of the Matlab compiler also includes a tbb.dll, not in system32, but in it's own application directory. LabVIEW DLL / so everybody, which is kind of rude, but little matter which at the present time. The biggest problem is when I try to use Matlab in the same process as LabVIEW Vision. It is not possible to do so, because the names of DLL in conflict between them, and I have no control over the source or Matlab and LabVIEW code to allow them to be charged with the full path name.

    For this reason, we can use the LabVIEW software to solve our specific application.

    Hi marcus,

    R & D is aware of this problem and it has already been established as part of the Corrective Action that requires #245249. You can watch the future versions of LabVIEW release notes to see when it is fixed.

  • Access ni4882.dll with Qt and MinGW

    I have to control some electrical loads and power supplies by GPIB. We use Qt 4.7.4 with MinGW 4.4 (32-bit) on Windows 7 64 bit.

    The drivers package GPIB-NI-488. 2 package 3.0.2 for Windows 7 64 bit is installed. GPIB Troubleshooting Utility tool displays "pass" and the application of the Measurement & Automation can connect to it and talk to an intrument. So far so good.

    Now, I want to write an application can use the NI4882.dll (3.0.0.49153). Unfortunately, there are just objects for compilers files Microsoft and Borland and no lib file.

    Therefore, generate us a def of the ni4882.dll file with:

    Hi all,

    After a few questions about the use of the GPIB with Qt library, I wrote a description step by step to create objects for MinGW files:

    1 create a folder and copy the "gpib - 32.dll' of the"C:\Windows\System32"("C:\Windows\SysWOW64"in Win7) in this folder.

    2. copy "ni488.h" to "c:\Program Files (x 86) \National Instruments\Shared\ExternalCompilerSupport\C\include\. (Not ni4882.h!)

    3. load PExports (my version is 0.44) and put the exe in your folder. I don't have a URL to load this tool but should be easy to find. It is freeware.

    4. copy "c:\QtSDK\mingw\bin\" dlltool.exe in your folder.

    5. create a batch file '1 - build def file.bat' with the content: "pexports ni488.h gpib - 32.dll h > gpib.def.

    6. create a batch file "2 - build file.bat lib" with the content: "dlltool k d gpib - 32.dll - d gpib.def-l libgpib.a.

    7. run the batch file "1 - def file.bat build" to create the file 'gpib.def' def

    8. start the batch file "2 - build file.bat lib" to create the file in the library 'libgpib.a '.

    9 copy 'gpib - 32.dll' and 'libgpib.a' in your software project. I created the 'lib' subdirectory and copied the files to.

    10. copy "ni488.h" into your software project. I created the "include" subfolder and copied the file in.

    11. in your PRO file type:

    # #####################################################################
    # Include the NI 488 library. 2
    # #####################################################################
    INCLUDEPATH += $$ PWD/include
    HEADERS += include/ni488.h

    12. in your type of source code:

    #include "windows.h".
    #include "ni488.h".

    bool InitializeGPIBBoard)

    {

    bool isStarting = false;

    boardID int;        / * id board @brief. */

  • DLL with the same screws simultaneously

    Hello

    I have two DLLs that have the same names of VI compiled. Now, I have the problem, that I can not use the two DLLs at the same time. It seems that the VI of the first called dll is loaded into memory, and the second dll uses the screw of the first dll - given that the screws have the same name.

    How to avoid this failure? The only way seems to be to rename all the subVIs in the dll, so that they have a unique name.

    Or is there another possibility?

    concerning

    MB

    You can try putting each set of two different libraries (*.lvlib) int SubVIs. If delimeted names stored in the DLL, then you will be able to load the screws with the same names in memory at the same time without conflict.

  • Problem calling LabVIEW DLL with c#

    Dear all,

    I compiled a few DLLs in LabVIEW and called these DLLs using c#.
    I'm having trouble passing in strings and arrays as input and output of the DLL.

    Whenever I try to view the string I have entered in a dialog box (this part is written in LabVIEW DLL), a LabVIEW message dialog box appears and the program just stuck there.

    Whenever I try to enter a string or an array to the dll, Microsoft Visual Studio would display "attempt read or write protected memory. It is often an indication that other memory has been corrupted. »

    I attached the vi and also the c# .sln file.

    Can you guys please advise where am I wrong?

    Thank you very much.

    You must allocate strings and arrays of output!

    private void button1_Click (object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
    output string;
    int [] value;
    StringOutput ("A", "B", exit, 3, value, 4);
    }
    }

    Your variable output and value must be preallocated to ensure storage of 3 items respectively. 4. and since you want to receive the C string that you need to increase this to 4 characters terminated by a NULL value.

    String in c# is also a not a C string of object pointer. You must declare the StringOutput() function as follows:

    [DllImport("SharedLib.dll",CallingConvention=CallingConvention.StdCall, Charset=CharSet.Ansi]internal static extern int StringOutput(StringBuilder A, StringBuilder B, out StringBuilder StringOutput, int sizeString, out int[] output, int sizeArray);
    

    Then call like this:

    StringBuilder output = new StringBuilder(4);int[4] array = new int[4];
    
    StringOutput("A", "B", output, output.Capacity, value, value.Length);
    

    Please note that I'm not a pro in c# and usually do not do much in it. Also that this code has not been tested or updated at all, so probably contains some errors. He however point you in the direction of where to look further.

    What you need to understand, is that the C DLL that you created in LabVIEW has a so-called unmanaged interface. This means c# is not able to know how to manage the memory for the parameters at all and you have to do everything yourself, where the obligation to explicitedly initialize variables output and table with a block of memory préallouée.
