How can I compile a Labview CIN in Visual Studio?

I am trying to compile a labview CIN using visual studio 2003.

I have followed the tutorial located here to the letter, but am getting the following error:

Project : error PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from "Performing Custom Build Step"

Does anyone know what is causing this? I tried this link found at an expert's exchange question but it does not seem relevant.

Is there an easier way to build a CIN using visual studio?

Solution

  • Ok, solved it.

    Turns out it's an issue with the lsvbutil.exe bundled with labview 8.5. Workaround is to replace with the version from 8.2
