Better tool for particular job between Labview and LabWindows

[aucman]

I am currently programming in Labivew. I dont not have any experience in LabWindows. I will describe what I would like to achive with the software and I would like a recommendation if LabWindows would be better tool for the job.

So I would like to build a software so that a user could in Run-time create controls (string controls, numeric controls), indicators, uplaod image, move controls with the mouse on certail positions and so on. I already know that this stuff is pretty complex to do in Labview as Labview basically was not meant for this kind of stuff.

Does anybody know if LabWindows has object orineted design? As I have read LabWindows is pure C so I assume it does not have object-orineted support as c++ or java.

Correct me if I am wrong.

It's true that LabWindows is not an object-oriented language, nevertheless it includes the capability of creating and manipulating controls at runtime: you could ideally develop your whole application creating the user interface on the fly. An additional tool that ships with the product permits to define some controls as movable / sizable with the mouse while the application is running; additionally, you could dynamically associate some oy the controls on a window to a splitter, to permit moving / sizing them while resizing the window. It seems to me that it offers all the features you are looking for.
