port vb.net with measurement studio to mac

[bartinoregon]

Hello,

Does anyone know a path to porting a VB.net application which uses measurement studio to a mac?

Also, if I were to create a labview application instead, would that easily port to a mac?

Thanks,

The easier is to use LabVIEW.

bartj, 

do you still plan to make .net calls if you opt to create a labview application? if so, you'd still run into issues porting to a mac os. here's more information on porting vis among platforms:

another option would be to trying using the mono framework. it is software platform designed to help create cross platform applications

Hello,

Do you know if anyone has had sucess using the mono framework while incorporating measurement studio in the project? Specifically the measurement studio graph control is of interest.

Thanks,

bartinoregon, 

I just looked futher into incorporating the mono frameowrk with measurement studio and it turns out the two are not compatible. The underlying DLL called to perform the appropriate functionality is a C++ library not compatible with Mono. I apologize for the misleading information in my previous message.
