Missing header file during .dll import Options

Hi,

 

I have a following problem. I want to use a C++ .dll and a header file, so I go Tools>>Import>>shared library. I add both files (.dll and .h) and after parsing files I get the following message:

 

"The following header file was not found in the specified header file or one of the referenced header files:-  vfw.h"

 

The .dll has 64 declarations, LabView can import only 24. How to force LabView to see this missing file (I cannot add it)? . I already have this header file - what to do with this file? I enclosed both files, any ideas will be really helpful :smileyhappy:

regards

I had a similar problem. I had to open the .DLL source code's soultion file. (The DLL was written in C++ on the Visual Studio IDE).

 

As I got an error message about a missing .h file in the import tool in LV, I would switch over to VS and look for that file. When I found it, I right clicked on it, went to Properties... , and got the path of where it ws . I wound up adding 12  .h files in 8 different locations After about 45 minutes of doing this it finally did the Import
