Hello 
,
I have been using LabVIEW for almost 5 years as part of academic and professional projects.
Recently i have kickstarted test and measurement system development using LabWindows CVI.
Given that i have only some basic knowledge in C- programming, i'm finding it a little difficult to understand concepts like multithreading and all. I'm familiar with c programs using a top down approach and some function calls, but nothing like mutithreading or any other advanced concepts. Hence i need some guidance in designing a large application in LabWindows CVI.
Assume that my application consists of 5 modules, all of them should be running in parallel.
I'm planning to write seperate c source files for each of them and call/control them from a main code. Is this approach correct? If not what is the best approach or design pattern that should be followed.
Below are some queries
- How to run the 5 modules in parallel? multi threading?
- If i'm creating header files(.h) for each of the 5 modules and include the headers in main code(.c) using #include , does that mean that all the 5modules will run in parallel, once the main code starts running.?
Regards
Deepu Jacob
