if this is the solution for LabView, it will be a costly one for us. before i head down that road, i want to determine if LV 7.1 is happy with our component as is.

inproc. everything (client and all servers) are on the same machine. the alg server objects are all marked as threading model=apartment.

the language server does not have a threading model entry under its InProcServer32 key. my understanding is that this is not a problem. however, dark thoughts about marshalling between apartments lurk in the back of my mind.

thanks for the comments!

Oh, no - I'm not suggesting you rewrite your interface for a C interface. I was merely suggesting a simple test DLL with a couple of functions - just to see.

Yes - apartment marshalling...let's hope we don't go down that dark road.

Do you or the customer have access to a LV 7 package? If so, that is definately the right thing to try.
