Thread: Function Call

Hello,

I am integrating one of the features of a DAQ device into my multi-feature program. For this feature of interest, I am given a sample code. In this sample code, the main function calls two additional functions as shown below.

However, in my multi-feature code, my main function calls the main function of the sample code which calls its two additional functions.
The modifications are shown on the code (the ones implemented when I integrated the sample code into my code)

When I faced the same problem before, I was able to solve it here. In that case, the main function in the sample code did not call any additional functions and it was easily integrated by commenting "return 0" out. This was necessary because the main function in my code calls a bunch of other functions and cannot return 0.

When I compile my current code on gcc, I get the following error:

c:/mingw/bin/../lib/gcc/mingw32/5.3.0/../../../../mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot open output file Main2.exe: Permission denied
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status


My code is below:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <NIDAQmx.h>


#define DAQmxErrChk(functionCall) if( DAQmxFailed(error=(functionCall)) ) goto Error; else


int32 CVICALLBACK EveryNCallback(TaskHandle taskHandle, int32 everyNsamplesEventType, uInt32 nSamples, void *callbackData);

    char        errBuff[2048]={'\0'};

Seems to me this error has nothing to do with the code. More likely - your exe is still in the memory (still running or being debugged)
Try to delete Main2.exe before trying to compile to see if this is the reason.
