G-sharp Framework
The correct title of this page is G# Framework. The substitution or omission of the # is because of technical restrictions.
The G# Framework is an add-on toolkit for LabVIEW that adds reference based object-oriented support. It takes advantage of the new data value reference structure in LabVIEW 2009 together with the native classes and will add a full object-oriented support with excellent performance. This is the new generation of object-oriented support that makes LabVIEW as powerful as any object-oriented language.
The G# Framework is a National Instrument Compatible with LabVIEW Gold product within the LabVIEW Tools Network. G# Framework is a registered trademark of AddQ Consulting.
