PLCnext Technology integrates programming of different languages, and enables users to create real time components in C# and C++ using their familiar Microsoft® Visual Studio® as the integrated development environment.

The new Shared Native Examples project provides support for the general approach to program functions and function block libraries in C++ for use with PLCnext Engineer.

This feature is based on Shared Native Libraries and is a combination of C++ implementation and C# wrapper. The PLCnext Technology Toolchain supports Shared Native Libraries with a Microsoft® Visual Studio® IDE template, or on the command line via the PLCnext CLI.
