C++ Developer for Short-Term Project

I have a partially completed project that needs completion. The project is to develop a DLL with functions exposed so that other applications can call them. The DLL would act as an interface to pass data from a test system (LabVIEW based) to a data archiver (tagged, unstructured, time-series database). The vendor of the data archiver/historian has provided a toolkit with documentation of available methods for exactly this purpose. This is a short-term project and would require a resource with a strong C++ skillset. Jonathan Hines (jon.hines@rowhy.com)
