Using a Loadable Compiled Module as an External Module
You can load a compiled module dynamically from your program. A module you load
dynamically is called an external module. You can load, execute, and unload this external
module programmatically using

module programmatically using

. Refer to Chapter 8, Utility Library, of the LabWindows/CVI
Standard Libraries Reference Manual for more information on using these functions.
While you develop and debug the external module, you can list it in the project as a source
file. After you finish debugging the module, you can compile it into an object file or a
Windows 95/NT DLL. External modules must adhere to the requirements outlined for the

Notification of Changes in Run State
You might have to notify certain compiled modules whenever your program starts, suspends,
continues, or stops. For example, if a compiled module has asynchronous callbacks, you must
prevent the callbacks from executing when program execution suspends at a breakpoint.
LabWindows/CVI has a callback mechanism you can use to inform a compiled module of
changes in the program status.

LabWindows/CVI has a callback mechanism you can use to inform a compiled module of

To notify a compiled module of changes in the run state, add a function with the name
__RunStateChangeCallback
to the compiled module. LabWindows/CVI automatically
installs the callback for you.
The run state change callback must be in a compiled file, not in a source file. More than one
compiled module can contain functions with this name, because LabWindows/CVI never
enters it into the global name space. The prototype for the callback is as follows:
