Creating .NET Objects in LabVIEW
Depending on the .NET platform you use, you can create .NET objects in LabVIEW on the block diagram and the front panel. Create .NET objects to give a VI access to functionality in a .NET assembly.
| .NET Platform | Supported .NET Object Locations | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| .NET (Core) | Block diagram | — |
| .NET Framework |
|
You can also add .NET Framework controls to the Controls palette for later use. .NET Framework objects can be visible or invisible to the user. For example, buttons, windows, pictures, documents, and dialog boxes are visible to users. Application objects are invisible to users. .NET Framework controls automatically use the user interface execution system. |
In general, you create .NET objects in LabVIEW in the following ways:
- Block diagram: Use a Constructor
Node. Creates a .NET object and accesses
properties and methods for the object.
Use the .NET functions () to access the .NET objects and their associated properties and methods.
- Front panel: Use a .NET Container control ().
