The newest version of LabVIEW (2009, due out next month) supposedly has full support for CA through the use of their "EPICS I/O Server" which will load an EPIC .db file and create a new set variables. These can then be tied directly into LabVIEW shared variables which are extremely easy to use.
 
This architecture has actually been available in LV applications running on a PC for a couple of versions (I think). I'm pretty good at LV (but really bad in EPICS) and have successfully created this reasonably direct connection with LV version 8.6 and EPICS 3.14.
 
LabVIEW 2009 supposedly now supports the same thing on Real-Time controllers. I am (this week) attempting to run an advance LV 2009 copy in the manner described. I will be very happy if this works...
 
Cheers,
-Jeff

tech-talkers,
  Yes I know this has been done, but what's the difficulty in setting this up?  What is the preferred method and has the experience been good or bad?  It seems like the decision to support this is based on extent of it's usage.

Thanks for any comments,
Wesley
