How do I make RPC calls from CVI?

[Christine]

I want to make an RPC call from a CVI program. I have #include . In rpc.h, RpcTryExcept is #defined to be __try. When I compile the line RpcTryExcept{myFunction}, CVI doesn't know what __try is. What do I need to do for CVI to be able to make RPC calls?

We don't include library functions in CVI for RPC. You would need to find a C library for RPC. For example here is one for use over the internet via XML (http://xmlrpc-c.sourceforge.net/). It sounds like the library you have is written for C++ since it is using exception handling which isn't supported in C.
