linux system call

[Zyga]

Hello,
I wonder if there is a possibility to call kernel functions from Labview i.e. using clfn. I am especially interested in calling open/recive/read/write/close to gain more control over sockets than LV native palette gives.

Thanks,
Zyga

I don't know much about LabView, but I've written DLLs for LV on Windows in C. I imagine you can likewise link with a .so (dynamic library) on Linux. Then you can write whatever you like in the C code. You only need to find the bindings between the two.

What additional functionality do you want to gain?

Best if I could avoid writing a wrapper, but in the end I might, if there is no other way.

I would like to bind to canbus interface and use what socketcan gives.
