telnet library: asynchronous read and write

[mkossmann]

I need control a device using the telnet protocol. It sends its logging messages asynchronous and I need to send commands to to setup it for measurements. There is no prompt, where it is waiting for commands. Therefore I can't use "Telnet Read Until".

My idea is now to start a thread with a loop calling   "Telnet Read" and sending the commands from the main thread. Is multithreading in that way supported by CVIs telnet library ?

Hi mkossmann,

you can use multithreading in CVI as in native C.

When your target does not send any starting comment, I guess your idea could be a good way to implement the communication in CVI.
