Question about the Signal Processing Toolkit

[x@no.mail]

I am using Measurement Studio with Visual C++ 6. Is it possible to use the
Signal Processing Toolkit in this environment or does LabWindowsCVI have to
be used? Would the toolkit supply a lib/dll that could be linked into a
VC++ project and called directly from the program?
Thanks

The signal processing toolkit for CVI could be used in Visual C++. It is not written to use C++ data types (like CNiVector, etc.) like the Measurement Studio analysis classes are though. Also, you would not have the function panels available in Visual C++. You may want to install CVI and refer to the function panels in CVI for help in using the functions. You would be able to use the library in Visual C++ though.

You can use the signal processing toolkit libraries in VC++, but the libraries do depend on CVI libraries. The easiest way to create a Visual C++ project that links to the CVI libraries would be to either a.) create the project in CVI then convert it using the Measurement Studio CVI conversion wizard, or b.) create a Visual C++ project that uses the CVI libraries with teh Measurement Studio application wizard.

For more information on the conversion wizard, see the following topic in the Measurement Studio references:
