CVI 2013 and Windows SDK

Solved!
Go to solution

Hi,

I just downloaded and installed Labwindows/CVI 2013 full development system on my new computer.

It's a Win7 64 bit computer.

 

Do I have to do any additional installations to use Windows SDK functions, or is it included in the typical installation?

 

Thanks,

Kirk

Unless in 2013 something has changed, normally you must explicitly select the corresponding option in order to have the SDK installed. You must perform the setup again and expand the CVI item in the product tree, next select "Interface to the Win32 API" item: the appropriate libraries and include files  will then be installe on your system.



Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.

You shouldn't need to install anything else. Since version 2010, the installer feature that Roberto is referring to has been removed, and the full SDK is always installed.

OK that sounds good.

Can either of you point me to one the examples that I could run to verify that the SDK is in fact working?

 

Thanks,

I'm neither of them but I'll try 😉

 

You can use Help / Find Examples and search for SDK. This yields 10 examples, including verinfo.cws and winshape.cws...

I just tried the demo.cws and winshape.cws.

Both build and run with no problem.

 

Thanks for the help,
