h file to fp conversion issue

[test_man]

I am using h to fp conversion tool available in CVI 7.1. (Options\Generate Function Tree from h file)

//int CVIFUNC  my_function(int* temp);   //Does not work
int CVIFUNC  my_function(int *temp);     //Does work

Any comments?

I reproduced this as well. I'll file a bug report for this.

Thanks for letting us know.

[test_man]

void* STDCALL my_function(void *buffer, int value1, int value2);  //does not work

void *STDCALL my_function(void *buffer, int value1, int value2);  //does not work

void STDCALL my_function(void *buffer, int value1, int value2);  //does work

is void * not supported? I see it is available from function panel menu.

I am trying to create fp from h file and I am getting unknown data type error.

Hello Sheetal,

You need to have a space on each side of the "*":
void * STDCALL my_function(void *buffer, int value1, int value2);

Hope this helps and good luck with your application!

Thanks for your help.

Try this

/// OUT 1
int STDCALL my_function(char * value); //give an error

/// OUT 1
int STDCALL my_function(char *value); //works fine
