How is it works Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Runtime Support 1.0 in LabVIEW Real-Time 13.0.0?

I have a NI-cRIO 9082, when I connect it with Max, I found this:

Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Runtime Support 1.0.jpg

How is it works Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Runtime Support 1.0 in LabVIEW Real-Time 13.0.0?

Is it really allows DLLs built with Visual Studio 2008 to be run on the Real-time Target?

I very much doubt that.  DLL's are for MS Windows systems.  RT Targets are variations of Linux.  These types of targets need *.so files instead of *.dll files.  SO files are shared object files.

 

I am not sure what the element of the tree in MAX actually is for.

Current NI RT systems run either PharLap, VxWorks, or Linux (all modified to implement various functionality).

The 9082 runs PharLap and does load DLLs produced by Visual Studio's compiler, but you need to take care because not all Windows functions are emulated. Generally most non-trivial third-party DLLs do not just load and run without some effort to ensure minimal dependencies.
