Where is the documentation for the new VDM2009 .NET objects?

[nb1forxp]

Hello,

I received the new VDM2009 DVDs in the mail today (actually, they were LabVIEW DVDs, but they had the VDM2009 on them).

I installed everything and opened my C# project.  A "Measurement Studio" group was added to my Toolbox which contained a single item: "ImageViewer".  Are there supposed to be other items or is that it?

When I dragged the ImageViewer from the toolbox to my form, it looks like it automatically added the following references:
NationalInstruments.Common

NationalInstruments.Vision.Common

Where is the documentation for the new functions/objects?  I can't seem to find the proper help file or manual.  I looked in C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Vision\Documentation but the only files I saw with June revision dates were:

IMAQVision.chm

NIVisionCVI.chm

NIVisionConcepts.chm

NIVisionCVICHM.DLL

VDM_CVI_User_Manual.pdf

NIVisionLVBasics.chm

All other files in that directory had revision dates in 2008. 

Am I missing something?  Where is the documentation for the .NET portion of VDM 2009?

Thanks,
Neville

Hey Neville,

The location of the documentation for .NET can be found in the readme file for NI Vision. The documentation has been included in the Measurement studio help which is then integrated into the Visual Studio help. I hate to quote the read me file, but check it out:

"...

NI Vision for .NET Documentation

The NI Vision .NET documentation merges into the NI Measurement Studio Help. The NI Measurement Studio Help integrates into the Visual Studio Combined Help Collection under the Measurement Studio node in the Table of Contents. In order for links from Measurement Studio help topics to .NET Framework help topics to work, you must install the product documentation for Visual Studio, which installs the MSDN Library. This requires a secondary installation during the Visual Studio installation process.

Check out the entire read-me file at C:\Program Files\National Instruments\Vision\Readme.html for more information on the location of the .NET Documentation and other important information about NI Vision.

Hello Ben,

Thanks for your help!  I skimmed the readme, but obviously not well enough.  Your help is much appreciated!
