data sharing with DLLs

[lmd2]

I need to write LabVIEW wrappers for function calls to a dll. so for example, I have a Call Library Function Node configured, the input is a U16, the output is: the function return(I16) and 4 *pointers. But in my LaabVIEW program I want to work with 4 pieces of data, not 4 pointers, I don't know how to make this link?
Overall this is new territory to me, anybody know of a white paper, or examples, or able to offer some help?

thanx

From the dll side, 4 pointers is the way to go.

From LabVIEW, simply configure the call library node to work with 4
pointers, and in LabVIEW you will get the 4 values. LabVIEW will get the
values frm the pointers from you, if you correctly configure the call
library node.

To do this without pointers is not practical, unless you make 4 export
functions, where each function returns one of the 4 parameters. I don't know
any reason why that will help you.
