NI-Motion Driver Support for Microsoft Visual Studio .NET

Hardware: Motion Control

Problem:
I am trying to use either Microsoft Visual Basic .NET, Microsoft Visual C# .NET, or Microsoft Visual C++ .NET with the NI-Motion driver. Does NI support this?

Solution:
The table below summarizes the support for Visual Studio and NI-Motion.

Language Support
Visual Basic 6.0 Optimal
Visual C++ 6.0 Optimal
Visual Basic .NET No
Visual C# .NET No
Visual C++ .NET No*

*Visual C++ .NET supports managed code and unmanaged code, so you can use the C example programs installed by NI-Motion with Visual C++ .NET.

National Instruments does not support Visual Studio .NET 2003 or Visual Studio 2005 with the NI-Motion driver, though it may be possible to use it. To use the NI-Motion DLLs in the .NET languages, you must create a wrapper around the DLL. Refer to the Related Links section for more information.
