How do I create thread in LABWindows?

[vtran]

Hi everyone,

I am new to LABWindows and wondering how to create a thread in LW? I am trying use a thread to periodically read encoder data from my motion controller card and display them on a panel. I think I may have to use Windows function calls like CreateThread, ResumeThread, etc...?? which I know how to do in VC++.

Thanks,
V.

There is a whitepaper in the CVI help files that explains this. Go to the Help Menu, select CVI Bookshelf. Select White Papers and Application notes and then Multithreading in CVI.

It's pretty simple to use.
