Using NI-IMAQ for IEEE 1394
Cameras in C and .NET
This chapter briefly describes how to use NI-IMAQ for IEEE 1394
Cameras function in Microsoft Visual C and Microsoft Visual
Studio .NET.
Using NI-IMAQ for IEEE 1394 Cameras for C
This section outlines the process for developing NI-IMAQ for IEEE 1394
Cameras applications using C for Windows 2000/XP. Detailed instructions
about creating project and source files are not included. For information
about creating and managing project files, refer to the documentation
included with your particular development environment.
Note The generic and high-level functions appear within each function class in the logical
order you might need to use them. The low-level functions appear within each function
class in alphabetical order.
When programming, use the following guidelines:
• Include the
niimaq1394.h header file in all C source files that use
NI-IMAQ functions. Add this file to the top of your source files.
•Add the
niimaq1394.lib import library to your project. In some
environments, you can add import libraries simply by inserting them
into your list of project files. In other environments, you can specify
import libraries under the linker settings portion of the project file.
• When compiling, indicate where the compiler can find the NI-IMAQ
header files and shared libraries. You can find most of the files you
need for development under the NI-IMAQ target installation directory.
If you choose the default directory during installation, the target
installation directory is
C:\Program Files\National
Instruments\NI-IMAQ for IEEE-1394
. You can find the
