NI-8452 Programming Example?

[mathaide]

Does anyone have an example in which they create a Visual C++ project using the library for ni845x? I am not normally a C++ developer and I can find literally no examples. I am trying to wrap up the functionality in the library so that I can access it from a C# application.

Hi mathaide,

Depending on your driver and OS version, you should be able to locate NI's shipping Visual C/C++ examples for the NI-845x driver at Program Files\National Instruments\NI-845x\MS Visual C\. Have you been able to find this folder?

[mathaide]

Yes. All it had was a header file and the library. I would like to see a working example if possible.

Hi mathaide,

I apologize, the correct path should be C:\Users\Public\Documents\National Instruments\NI-845x\Examples\MS Visual C! These examples aren't always installed by default, so if you don't see them there I'd recommend repairing your install of the driver and ensuring that you've checked "install on local drive" for the Examples drop-down under the MS Visual C installation options.
