How do I configure .NET application in LabVIEW?

[Java4Ever]

Hi,

I want to write a DLL in C#.
Unfortunately the library I use needs some configuration at startup, which is normally done in a config file 'applicationName.exe.config'.
There's no way to change this configuration afterwards!? In which file do I have to insert these settings?

Thanks in advance.

Depends on the version of LV you are using.

If you are using LV 7.x, you need to create a config file called "viname.vi.config" and put it in the same directory as the VI. However, you must start the application via this VI.

If you are using LV 8.x, it's easier - create a LV project and save it. The directory that contains the .lvproj file becomes your appbase for the .NET code and the myprojectname.lvproj.config becomes your config file.

Hi Brian,

thank you for your answer. I use LV 7.1 and the DLL works fine now.
