I have tried reading other threads related to my problems, but can't figure out what to do. I am simply trying to use the call library function for a C++ program that receives 2 numbers and returns the sum (once I have this down, I intend to work with more complicated C++ programs for the project I am needed to work on). I have a function called 'add' in the C++ program that I finally figured out how to export (using previous forum threads) and so LabVIEW does see the function now. But when I run the VI, it gives me this error:
"LabVIEW: An exception occured within the external code called by a call library node.
This might have corrupted LabVIEW's memory.
Save any work to a new location and restart LabVIEW."
Do I really have to keep saving to a new location every time I try to run this and get this error? And what should I be looking at to stop this error from occuring? I have 2 controls for the input numbers on the front panel, and one indicator for the output. I put a break point after one of the controls and before the Call Library Function, it gives me the error after I step over the breakpoint.
I am thinking that maybe I am doing something wrong in my C++ program, but it is such a simple program I don't see what it could be.
I am running Microsoft Visual C++ 5.0 to create the .dll and LabVIEW 7.1.
Thanks for any input.
