How can I use the TLB Library ( Disto A6) on my application?

[NikeAdrian]

How can I use the TLB ( typed library ) in vi???? Can anyone teach me how to use? Thank you.

I am pretty sure you will have to embed the type library with a DLL, and then call it from LabVIEW using the Call Library Function Node. However, I will verify if we have any other way of calling a type library from within LabVIEW.

How exactly was this type library created? In what programming environment was it developed?

Here is the typed library. It contain two class : application and measurement. However, when I use the measurement library, the error message always pop up.

You cannot directly use a type library file in LabVIEW. You need a COM object, like an ActiveX control. Do you have one installed for this "Disto A6", whatever that is? You said "when I use the measurement library, the error message always pop up".  How are you using it? What error message?

Leica Disto A6

A type library is the description of the interface a COM object like an ActiveX control or ActiveX automation server has. LabVIEW is using the information in a type library when you use the"Select ActiveX class" dialog. You must have the ActiveX control or automation server installed to use it in LabVIEW and on your target machine when running a built application.

I think he tries to use DISTO™ transfer to get the measurements.
