I suppose this is because you are assigning to RES the address of the variable msg which is local to the function and at its end it is no more valid. Try with memcpy instead.

Rif.: create a function in CVI

This structure works in a compiled executable:

char * myFunction (char * msg)
{
  char  buf[32];

  // Manipulate the string
  strcpy (buf, "Hello world!");

  // Save the string
  strcpy (msg, buf);

  // Return the string
  return msg;
}

I never tried to do the same in a DLL and I cannot test it now, but I suppose should work as well.

still have the same problem i can't have the Input /Output paremeter  RES after i build the DLL als here the buffer type is unsigned char not const char so alawys i have an error with strcpy .

Well, since your problem lies in the interaction between CVI and TestStand, it seems to me that the best place where to ask is the TestStand board. There are several discussions there on this subject, look for example at this aswer from Josh and the KnowledgeBase article he links. Hope this makes sense for you, it doesn't for me as I'm not using TestStand.

 

On the CVI side, I don't understand why you don'use ComWrt and use a series of ComWrtByte instead. And finally, I suggest you to pass -1 to OutputQueueSize in OpenComConfig in order to exclude the use of the output buffer in serial communication and have a more responsive system.

thank you for your response 

i tried to import the DLL in Labview and it work 

in the CVI side i change only the return type of the funcyion in char*

'msg' variable is local to the function and is released after the function ends, which means the caller can receive an invalid string. Have you tried passing the string to manipulate to the function as I told you before?
Try doing so and see if the string is correctly returned calling it from CVI: if it works, then the problem is likely to lie in how the function is defined in TestStand, which I cannot discuss.

Thank you for your response 

This is my try but still doasen't work, i can't undrestand how it works in the Init can Function and no in this one  

After i build the dll i'm calling it from labview it works properly in the init function return the msg received without adding a new paremeter like Input /Outpout  RES
