How to call a dll with special parameters in Labview?

Hi,
I have a dll file (compiled in C++) and I would like to call the individual functions from this dll file.
I do not know however, how I must correctly define the initial parameters in LabView.
That is the function, which I would like to call:
DWORD OpenDiagDriver ( char* port,
LPCSTR path,
CANObjects CANObj[],
WORD BitTiming = 0x4167);
CANObjects CANObj[] is a pointer to array with CAN configuration data
typedef struct
DWORD Ident;
BYTE Config;
}CANObjects;
CANObj[0].Ident= 0x18DA0000;
CANObj[0].Config= 0x8C;
CANObj[1].Ident= 0x18DA0000;
CANObj[1].Config= 0x84;
WORD BitTiming= 0x4167;
I made a vi, but it doesn’t work.

Hard to say without the full C source. Are you building the DLL according to the CIN rules (see Using External Code in LabVIEW)? Mapping clusters to C code in DLLs is not a simply process and we generally recommend to create wrappers. However, since your structures are fairly straightforward, you could use the "Adapt to Type" as you are trying to do.
I recommend checking out the mentioned manual and also the examples in \examples\dll\data passing\Call Native Code.llb and the associated C files.

How to call stored procedure with multiple parameters in an HTML expression

Hi, Guys:
Can you show me an example to call stored procedure with multiple parameters in an HTML expression? I need to rewrite a procedure to display multiple pictures of one person stored in database by clicking button.
The orginal HTML expression is :
<img src="#OWNER#.dl_sor_image?p_offender_id=#OFFENDER_ID#" width="75" height="75">which calls a procedure as:
procedure dl_sor_image (p_offender_id IN NUMBER)now I rewrite it as:
PROCEDURE Sor_Display_Current_Image(p_n_Offender_id IN NUMBER, p_n_image_Count in number)could anyone tell me the format for the html expression to pass multiple parameters?
Thanks a lot.
Sam

Hi:
Thanks for your help! Your question is what I am trying hard now. Current procedure can only display one picture per person, however, I am supposed to write a new procedure which displays multiple pictures for one person. When user click a button on report, APEX should call this procedure and returns next picture of the same person. The table is SOR_image. However, I rewrite the HTML expression as follows to test to display the second image.
<img src="#OWNER#.Sor_Display_Current_Image?p_n_Offender_id=#OFFENDER_ID#&p_n_image_Count=2" width="75" height="75"> The procedure code is complied OK as follows:
create or replace
PROCEDURE Sor_Display_Current_Image(p_n_Offender_id IN NUMBER, p_n_image_Count in number) AS
    v_mime_type VARCHAR2(48);
    v_length NUMBER;
    v_name VARCHAR2(2000);
    v_image BLOB;
    v_counter number:=0;
    cursor cur_All_Images_of_Offender is
      SELECT 'IMAGE/JPEG' mime_type, dbms_lob.getlength(image) as image_length, image
      FROM sor_image
      WHERE offender_id = p_n_Offender_id;
    rec_Image_of_Offender cur_All_Images_of_Offender%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
    open cur_All_Images_of_Offender;
    loop
      fetch cur_All_Images_of_Offender into rec_Image_of_Offender;
      v_counter:=v_counter+1;
      if (v_counter=p_n_image_Count) then
        owa_util.mime_header(nvl(rec_Image_of_Offender.mime_type, 'application/octet'), FALSE);
        htp.p('Content-length: '||rec_Image_of_Offender.image_length);
        owa_util.http_header_close;
        wpg_docload.download_file (rec_Image_of_Offender.image);
      end if;
      exit when ((cur_All_Images_of_Offender%NOTFOUND) or (v_counter>=p_n_image_Count));
    end loop;
    close cur_All_Images_of_Offender;
END Sor_Display_Current_Image; The procedure just open a cursor to fetch the images belong to the same person, and use wpg_docload.download_file function to display the image specified. But it never works. It is strange because even I use exactly same code as before but change procedure name, Oracle APEX cannot display an image. Is this due to anything such as make file configuration in APEX?
Thanks
Sam

How to call a DLL with a char or a uint8_t

Good afternoon,
I need to pass an array (image) to my dll.
I was able to successfully do this using
imageProcess(int **a, ... ){;}
function declaration and using a signed or unsigned 32 bit integer as data type in labview DLL call
However, when I changed my function to either
imageProcess(char **a, ... ){;} or
imageProcess(uint8_t **a, ... ){;}
And when I set the Labview Dll Call data type to unsigned 8 bit integer
I get a Broken Arrow
With error: The function name specified for this node cannot be found in the library. Right-click the Call Library Function node and select Configure, then choose the correct function name.
I am also using IMAQ ImageToArray to obtain my array and using the ImagePixels(U8) output
Thank you,

Another possibility to make functions be unmangled is declaring them as extern "C" like this:
for a single function.
#define LibFunction __declspec(dllexport)
extern "C" MgErr LibFunction MyFunction(uInt8 *);
or:
#define LibFunction __declspec(dllexport)
#if defined(__cplusplus) || defined(__cplusplus__)
extern "C" {
#endif
LibFunction MgErr MyFunction1(void);
LibFunction MgErr MyFunction2(uInt32);
#if defined(__cplusplus) || defined(__cplusplus__)
#endif
for multiple function prototypes.
This will tell the compiler to not mangle the names if it is invoked on a cpp file. And the LibFunction declaration is to declare the function as exported to the compiler, saving you to have to provide a DEF file for that purpuse. Remember that other compilers and platforms might and often do use a different syntax for the export declaration.
And alternative could be:
#define LibFunction(retval) extern "C" retval __declspec(dllexport)
LibFunction(MgErr) MyFunction(uInt8 *);
Also before claiming that there is a huge bug in LabVIEW that needs fixing you should make sure that you understand all in and outs of your C compiler toolchain. Something I wouldn't dare to claim to do!

How to call the DLL writing in Vb6.0 from testsatnd?

Hi,
I want to call a dll writting in VB6.0 from teststand. But as i see from the "Step Setting" in teststand, only the C/C++ Dll can be selected in the "adapter" type. I try to use this one as my adapter to call my VB6.0 dll, in result, there is no function can be seen in the "function" tab in teststand.Anyone know how to call the DLL writing in Vb6.0?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Ivan,
Just to be sure that your DLL is not wrong
you have check if all functions are well and present.
There is tool called "Dependency Walker" You can download it at http://dependencywalker.com/ .
With it you can look "inside" your dll
If you will see your functions there, you will see them (in my case !!always!!) in TestStand, too.
Hope this helps

Call a dll with an activeX component gives error

Hello all,
My program consist of:
- Main program
- DLL's
How it works:
The main program is the interface for the user, this main program call's several dll's
The problem:
The main program runs withought problems, but when it call's a dll, which also call's an activeX component, I get an error.
I then made a executable from the dll which then works ok, no problem.
When I click the retry it runs ok, but when I call it again I get the message again.
The message does allways accur, but still very often
Conclusion:
The error message only comes when I call it as a dll, when the dll is standalone executable no problems occur.
Below you can see how I call the dll:
Can someone please help me with this problem?
greetz,
Bart

Hello Bas,
I have included the vi which calls de dll(executedll.vi) en the dll in VI form(plugin.vi & plugin.lvproj).
As you can see the dll calls the canconfigurator activex component.
And closes the activex component when done.
This plugin will be called several times in the test enviroment.

How to call a transaction with a variant

Hi all
I created a bdc program after updating it should call another transaction with predefined variant that that transaction program is of type module pool.
can anyone tell me the syntax how to call a transaction with a variant.

Hi
goto Tcode SHD0
enter the Tcode for which Tran Variant has to be created(dialog Tcode)
enter Trans variant to be created
press create button
it will go through all the screens of that Tcode and save
and modify the fields as per requirement
we can create Transaction Variants Using SHD0 Transaction.
Transaction Variants and Screen Variants
Transaction variants can simplify transaction runs as they allow you to:
Preassign values to fields
Hide and change the 'ready for input' status of fields
Hide and change table control column attributes
Hide menu functions
Hide entire screens
In particular, hiding fields in connection with screen compression, and hiding screens, can result in greater clarity and simplicity.
Transaction variants are made up of a sequence of screen variants. The field values and field attributes for the individual screens found in transaction variants are stored in screen variants. Each of these variants is assigned to a specific transaction, can, however, also contain values for screens in other transactions if this is required by transaction flow. The transaction that the variant is assigned to serves as initial transaction when the variant is called.
There are both client-specific and cross-client transaction variants. All screen variants are cross-client, but may be assigned to a client-specific transaction variant.
A namespace exists for cross-client transaction variants and screen variants and both are automatically attached to the Transport Organizer. Client-specific transaction variants must be transported manually.
In principle, transaction and screen variants can be created for all dialog and reporting transactions. There are, however, certain Restrictions that apply to certain transactions, depending on their internal structure.
No transaction variants are possible with transactions already containing preset parameters (parameter transactions and variant transactions).

Call OAF page with post parameters

Hi,
From a custom OAF payment screen, on button click, I'm opening a third party website in the same window.
Once payment is done, third party will send me conf num back as the background process (user is still in third party website).
For this post back purpose, I have created a simple OAF page and given the OAF url to third party.
https://xxx-dev:85/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?page=/xxx/oracle/apps/xx/webui/PostbackPG&confNum=
However, third party refused to use this url as it is a html get. They send return values (conf num) only by html post as security measure.
Is it possible to use OAF page to get post requests? If yes, please let me know how to call OAF page with a post and how to get values in PR of CO.
Thanks

Any ideas please!

How to call a dll which has one VISA name as input

Hi there,
The Labview application builder can generate a dll file from a vi which is a simple serial comunication program using VISA name as one control.
The problem is how to call the dll file in Labview which has a VISA name as INPUT?
Thanks!
George

I would suggest modifying the LabVIEW VI so that the input is a string control instead of a visa control. The LabVIEW application will work the same and there is no need for any casting. All visa VIs can take a string as an input. Then when you recreate the dll make the input a string. Then you can easily pass a string to the dll from any API.

How to call a function with parameters in ScriptStart function

i am trying to call ScriptStart function from SUD dialog. This is how iam calling Call ScriptStart(path & "test.vbs","abc") abc is function which is written test.vbs. It is working. But when i want to pass some parameters to the abc function of test.vbs. It is not working why. can anybody suggest where i went wrong. I am calling the same function as Call ScriptStart(path & "test.vbs","abc(" & text1.Text & ")"). It is not working why ? Is the ScriptStart function only point to functions. it does not take any parameters or waht ?

Hi abc421,
Another option in addition to UserCommands would be to use ScriptInclude(path). If you execute a ScriptInclude(path) command at the beginning of your VBScript, then all the functions and Subs in the VBscript located at "path" are now available to you-- including passing parameters and receiving return values from functions. If you are calling a VBscript that uses only VBScript variables, then this is the preferred method.
If instead you are calling a VBScript that uses global DIAdem variables declared in a VAS file (their variable names all end with the "_" character), then those parameters are already available at the subroutine called with ScriptStart(path, routine).
