Using "Create ActiveX Controller" with a .NET DLL

[miniMe]

Hello,

I want to access some methods from a .NET dll using LW 7.0, to do this I used "Create ActiveX Controller" wizard to create wrapper functions. It seemed to work, I could compile and run my application.

In newer CVI versions I see that there is a "Create .NET Controller" wizard, what differences are between the wrapper  functions generated by this wizard and the ones create with "Create ActiveX Controller" ?

Regards

Hi miniMe,

Running both the ActiveX Controller Wizard and the .NET Controller Wizard result in instrument drivers in CVI.  The main difference is  The Create ActiveX Controller command is used to generate a new instrument driver for an ActiveX server and the .NET Controller Wizard generates a wrapper in the form of an instrument driver for a .NET assembly.  Please reply if you have any more specific questions about this.
