This example demonstrates how to pass a string from .NET (C#) to a LabVIEW DLL that returns a string by reference.
The reason this is slightly different is because of how LabVIEW Strings are structured. Strings in LabVIEW not only contain the actual characters of the string, but also the length of the string. As such, the calling program must know the length of the string that is being returned.
There are two folders in the attachment:
LabVIEW Code: Contains the LabVIEW VI and Project to create the DLL
DotNet Code: Contains the .NET C# Solution and a copy of the DLL in the bin folder
Note: If you make changes to the VI and rebuild the DLL, you must copy it over to the .NET solution's output (bin) folder, i.e. the same directory as the executable.
