Problem adding specific dll to CVI dll by absolute path

Hello All,

I have a library, header and is dll (functions.lib, functions.h and functions.dll) those are located in a specific path c:\dll_example\functions.* I don't have its source code (and I hope I don't need it).

Then, I am creating a dll with LabWindows/CVI 7.1 and in this new dll, in a different path (c:\dll_new_example\new.dll), I am including the above library by its path -> c:\dll_example\functions.lib.

After that I use this new dll in a TestStand 3.1 sequence and I got the error "Could not find functions.lib".

The only way to use my new dll is to add the functions.lib/h/dll to the same path of the new one. But this is not what I want. I would like to use it from a different path.

Is there any way to do it?

Thanks,

Pedro Moreira

Hi Pedro,

Have you tried to call your new_dll from a simple CVI code before porting it to TestStand ? Also you can define Search directories in TestStand.
