You just have to insert the code in that method (event handler created). You can also go manually to the event properties and add the event handler's name and VS will automatically create one with the name yo ...Show All

• Visual C++ .NET Double Queue ????

  Hey all, I am doing a high-speed acquisition system w/ some multithreaded callbacks. I need to push data of type Double[,] from a NIDaq card onto a queue with one thread, and write it out to disk with another.

Well, I narrowed it down to converting the scanData from a Double to an actual 'O ...Show All
