Calling LabView FPGA Host VI from CVI application

Hi, I have a FPGA project that I built into a .dll so that I can call it from a CVI application.  This is the first time that I've tried this method of converting to CVI so I'm wondering if it will work.  I'm familiar with the C API module to call directly to a FPGA target and I know that it works.  However, it's often easier to create a host VI instead to interface the FPGA target.  Therefore, building a .dll and calling the host VI from CVI seems like a better route if it works.

I attempted to implement this within our application and everything builds fine but so far it doesn't work.  When I run the host VI out of LabView it works great and returns almost immediately.  When I make the function call in CVI to execute the same VI, it attempts to execute but never returns.  No errors or anything, just seemingly an infinite loop.  Is there likely just a mistake in the implementation or is this methodology unlikely to work for some inherent reason?
