Nugget: How to create interface to DLL easily

Colleagues,
Here is a very small tip, which is useful for me.
I using my own DLLs in my code pretty often (because in some cases its more convinient to develop some parts of the code in C instead of LabVIEW). So, sometimes compilcated structures should be passed into DLL and back. I manipulating with sctructures directly in DLL (resize arrays, strings, etc), and every time need to develop interface, which can be complicated. Easiest way to get all necessary typedefs is following:
- create interface cluster which should be passed into DLL (don't forget to add names)
- place CIN on the block diagram
- connect your data to CIN
- right click and choose: "Create *.c file...":
then you will get the file like this:
now just copy these strings, paste into your DLL source, and you have all what you need:
Maybe this tip will be useful for someone else...
best regards,
Andrey.

Wow that is a useful tip.Thanx

How to create interface where you can view metadata of several databases

How to create interface where we can view metadata of several databases:
Oracle Apex should display metadata of this particular DB (later on we can include multiple DB’s)
          a. Report should first display DB name
          b. When clicked on DB name, should display 3 schemas
          c. When clicked on 1 schema, should display tables – when clicked on each table,
          should display various column names and its corresponding metadata.
          (similarly for other schema’s also)
          d. In short, it should be like a drill down report.
Help required for craeting like above.
Appreciate your help.

I did something similar a while back. I had an application reading from multiple schema's for reporting purposes..IN that case atleast we just would build the selects using a function reurning SQL select, so that we could have an application item with the selected schema they wanted to use to build into the select returned...
For forms, that would be an interesting idea, don't know how you can dynamically change the table owner name, since it is a drop down control in development..
Thank you,

How to Create & Manage data slices easily?

Hi All,
We have lots of Business units; everyone works independent to each other, so they might be in different versions at any point of time.
My requirement is to lock all previous versions, should allow them to work on current version.... so it should be a combination with Business Unit and Version.
For ex:
Business Unit 100 has current version 5
Business Unit 200 has current version 3
Business Unit 500 has current version 15
So how can I create simple data slice to manage every business unit with their respective versions locked.
After reading some of the threads:
I considered creating data slice for each Business unit but we have 45 units.. with one VERSION customer exit variable to populate the variable from my ztable.
I want to know more about how to use exit class? (CL_RSPLS_DS_EXIT_BASE)
Will that help me much better than what I have considered above?
OR any better way to tackle my problem?
Thanks in advance
Guptha

Hi,
I think here a simple exit data slice implementation would work. No variables would be needed at all. A feature often overlooked is the 'is_overlapping' method. Here one will get the filter of the planning function, query before the 'is_protected' method is called per record. So when the query / planning function is called the method 'is_overlapping' is called. Here one can read the Z-table with the allowed business unit, version combinations allowed to plan. This Z-table can be read using the restrictions form the filter (i.e. i_tsx_selder table or call seldr_to_range to get a easier to consume range table). Buffer the result in an internal table.
In the 'is_protected' implementation simply lookup the internal table records and decide whether the records is protected or not.
Using the 'is_overlapping' method on can set R_IS_OVERLAPPING = rs_c_false if the filter of the planning / function query has not non-empty intersection with the Z-table. Then the system will not call the is_protected method at all.

Hello all,
I know this is an old thread but i have to give it a try ( i am stuck with an almost identical problem but cant solve it since 5 days googling and reading.
I am developing an app for Unitech HT660e which has Win CE. THe app is complete but now i need some more control over the barcode scanner. In order to gain controll i need to use USI.dll which is explained in this documentation (chapter 2 has the link to
the SDK which contains the USI.dll ) :
http://www.datacol.co.nz/pdf/uni_prog-guide_1.21.pdf
But i also get : Cant find PInvoke DLL 'USI.dll'.
In chapter 4 is SysIOAPI.DLL mentioned which i cant fin.
Chapter 17 has USICF.dll which may be interesting bcos this one can be added as reference and "using USICF" . I am using compact framework 3.5 for this and the emulator is "usa windows mobile 5.0 pocket pc r2 emulator".
Reading your post i noticed i can use the "Pocket PC 2003 SE Emulator" but it gives me the same error.
Maybe i need to include a path in my code but i tried this as well...and get the same problem. Maybe i am missing something.
Here is my code:
using USICF;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
namespace SmartDeviceProjectzaDLLtesting
    public partial class Form1 : Form
        [DllImport("USI.dll", EntryPoint = "VibrationOn")]   //ignorethis?:,CallingConvention=CallingConvention.Winapi)]//Cdecl)]    //EntryPoint = "VibrationOn")]
        public static extern void VibrationOn(bool bEnable);
        public Form1()
            InitializeComponent();
        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
           // USICF.USIClass usiba = new USICF.USIClass(this); // this gives an exception as well
           VibrationOn(true); // thiis causes the exception
//           VibrationOn(false);

How to create parallel Diagonal lines easily in Photoshop?

Hi All,
I want to create some parallel but diagnol lines easily in photoshop or illustrator. A easy to follow tutorial will be fanastic. Please help me.
Thanks in advance.

I nearly always start an angled illustration element on the horizontal or vertical grid, and Free Transfor the angle after.
If you need several lines then I would tend to use Free Transform step and repeat.
Show Grid and check that snap to grid is enabled.
Select Line tool and set thickness
Draw line in line with the grid
Free Transform, and move line to the required spacing using the grid as a guide. Press Enter
Ctrl Alt Shift t (or Cmd Opt Shift t) as many times as you need lines
I would probably make them too long, and trim after any rotation or aother adjustments had been made.
I don't have or use Illustrator.

How to create interface when target is a webservice

Hi
I have following requirement
I want to sent data from a table to a web service.I have source as oracle database table and in the target end
i have web service.Do i have to reverse engineer the webservice in this case.If so how i have make web service as target in the interface.Can some one explain the process how i need to start ?.
Thanks in advance.
BS

In order to use the web service, you should get the WSDL of the webservice, so that you can reverse engineer the XML. In ODI you should populate the XML in one or more interfaces, then use the ODIInvoke WebService request to call the actual service with your data. These steps can be put together into a package for execution as a single step.

Need help for learning how to develop interfaces for Oracle R12 EBS

Hi all,
I need to learn how to create interfaces in PL/SQL for Oracle R12 EBS Financials. I cannot find a good starting point for the documentation and examples to help me get started in this area. Would appreciate tips
for this area.

Hi,
What kind of interfaces you are planning to develop?
Oracle already provides list of APIs that can be used (in R12, it is responsibility).
Oracle Integration Repository Documentation Resources Release 12 [ID 396116.1]
Oracle Integration Repository
http://irep.oracle.com/index.html
If those APIs do not satisfy your requirements, you can refer to "Oracle Applications Developer" guide as well as SQL-PL/SQL guides.
Applications Releases 11i and 12

Create 16 bit dll

Hello!
I'm creating an application in C for the NI USB-6009 Multifunction device. (The application will work as a .dll to be called from a VB3 program.) I use nidaqmxbase functions (I know nidaqmx is more up to date, but I had no problems using nidaqmxbase, hope it's not the problem).
When creating, I've tested the dll with a simple VB6 test app, but when getting to VB3, it couldn't load the dll. Shortly, I realised it happens because of the 16<>32 bit difference.
Then I tried to make a 16bit dll using different 16bit C compilers, like Borland C++ 3.1, Borland C++ 5.02, Turbo C++ 3.1, but all build processes failed. I'm afraid it's the nidaqmxbase.lib file that causes this.
Can you help, how to create my 16bit dll using my existing code?
Thanks a lot,
motyo

That's bad news. I hoped there would be a 16bit version of the lib file or something....
So the solution to get the NI device work with VB3 is some kind of emulation (like call32.dll or other 16bit-32bit emulators) right? Anything else than this?

How to create object for a interface (or) how to use ITextModel Interface

Hi,
I am new to vc++ and indesign, i am using windows xp as OS and Indesign CS3 as version, now i want to know how to create an object for the ITextModel Interface (or) how to use the ITextModel interface, for getting the selected text and to manipulate the content, for this i tried myself to the best for more than a week,
but i not get any solution or any idea to do it, so i post this scrap, if any one knows kindly help me immediately, if u want any more details kindly reply me i am ready to give..
Regards,
ram

Hi, Ram,
as Jongware already has explained in a previous thread, this is the scripting forum, the SDK forum is next door.
Besides, your question has already been answered over there in SDK forum - with a reference to an existing example, including documented source. There is also plenty more documentation (780 pages alone in the programming guide) and other working examples.
The brief response was a perfect match to the vague, general scope of the question. If you want more details, be more specific yourself. Do not just touch such major topics as selection, text, object architecture in one sentence to expect a silver bullet. Instead, stick to one detail, find and read the relevant examples and documentation (did I mention the programming guide?) yourself e.g. using keyword search. Quote your code where you're stuck.
Being new to both VC++ and InDesign is an explanation but no excuse. IMO, same goes for "using windows xp as OS". All together are bad starting conditions if you intend to write a plugin. Even a seasoned C++ programmer with some years of experience in publishing quirks will easily require months, so don't become impatient after just a week.
If you need quick results and have a programming background such as a recent Java101, reconsider scripting (this forum). It can bring you amazingly far and you'll learn InDesign through a simplified object model. Same principles apply - there is plenty documentation and a good choice of examples.

How to create a dll from vi in Labview 7.0 ?

Hello,
I want to create a dll from a vi in Labview 7.0.
I've found the url: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/conceptd.nsf/webmain/003A3E6A5E9CCCEC8625691F0072B2C5
explaining how to create DLLs from LabVIEW in Labview 6.0i but this method is not available in my Labview 7.0.
How is it possible to create a dll from a vi or from vi's (stored in llb-files) ?
With thanks,
best regards,
Geert

You can only create DLLs and Standalone Applications if you have LabVIEW professional or higher.
If you only have LabVIEW Base of Full, you need to purchase the Application builder seperately.
(Check under "Deployment tools" in the LabVIEW comparison matrix. What level do you have?)

How to create a login interface in labview PDA module?

How to create a login interface in labview PDA module? So that it checks with a list of usernames and passwords and allow to go to another VI?
Anu

Anu,
I've attached a really short example that does something like what you're talking about. It just compares the user's username and password a pre-determined username and password and then "logs the user in" based on that comparison. Like Greycat said, you probably want to store this username and password info in some sort of file on the PDA that's in an encrypted format for both security and flexibility of your application.
I hope this helps,

Need information on how to create Idoc Inbound Interfaces for Business Sys

Hi,
I'm losing it.
Can anyone point me to some documentation or an example of how to create inbound interfaces for Business Systems in PI 7.1.
Here's the scenario
I'm working on a B2B integration process which sends inbound idocs to an ECC 6.0 system.
I've created the Business System communication component but under the Inbound Interfaces it is blank.
I want to have MBGMCR.MGBMCR03 as an inbound interface.
But I forget how to get it there.
For Business components you can just add the inbound interface.
I've already defined the Business System in the SLD pointed it to the correct Tech System, imported the idoc definitions in the Enterprise Service Builder and set up IDX1, IDX2 to ensure the metadata exists in PI.
But for Business systems the hep says that it's got to come from the SLD.
Outbound/Inbound Interfaces
For each business system, the interfaces that are installed on the business system are also entered in the SLD. These interfaces are displayed in this frame. You cannot add any other interfaces.
I know I've done this before, but I can't remember how.
Cheers,
John
