Configuring Settings for Importing ActiveX Methods

LabWindows/CVI

Edit ActiveX Server Wizard — Configure Importing ActiveX Methods Panel

You can use this dialog box to configure settings for importing ActiveX methods based on function prototypes in existing include files.

Note Note  You can import only those functions that satisfy the restrictions of ActiveX methods. If a function has a name that also is used by a method in the importing interface, the function will not be imported.
  • Include File Path—The full path of the include file (.h) from which to import.
  • Treat Pointer Parameters as 1D Arrays—Enable this option to treat all pointer parameters as one-dimensional arrays. By default, LabWindows/CVI treats pointer parameters as references to scalars.
  • Treat char Pointer Parameters as C Strings—Enable this option to treat all char pointer parameters as C strings. By default, LabWindows/CVI treats char pointer parameters like other pointer parameters.
  • Select Methods—Selects the ActiveX methods to import from the specified header file.

For more information, refer to Building ActiveX Servers in LabWindows/CVI book, which describes the LabWindows/CVI ActiveX server tools and functions in more detail and contains sample code fragments and hints for server development.
