Converting LabView code into C code

Is there a program or some way to convert LabView code into C code? If not is there some way to make the two languages "talk" to each other -- like some common set of files that they can both recognize. Thank you in advance.

No there isn't any way to translate LabVIEW code into C. Maybe NI is
developing something like this, but I doubt it will be to allow you to
take the resulting C code to compile in an external compiler to
completely dispose of LabVIEW.

Checkout the online help under "Help->Search the LabVIEW Bookshelf" and
in there "Using External Code in LabVIEW" about how to interface to
shared libraries and other external functions.

Going the other way, LabVIEW VIs can be built into DLLs that can be called through C code.
