• Alignment Sidebar only with IE 8 problem

  OK, all the rookie here.  I worked in BrowserLab and Dreamweaver CS5 to set up the Web site.  In the browsers Firefox and IE 6, 7 and 9, the Web page looks available to Dreamweaver.  However in IE 8, the sidebar moves more to the right, in the region that should be the main body content.  After about 12 hours of watching this and try to find key by myself, questions its time to throw in the towel and ask the experts.

  Please take a look and say where I'm wrong.

• Performance of CVI 2013 SP2 with CVI 2015 - Windows XP problem

  I see that XP isn't an operating system in 2015 of the CVI.

  Most of our PC are Win7 now, but we have some legacy units which require XP due to a limitation of external controller processor.

  Is is possible to generate executables in 2015 CVI which will work correctly with the runtime of 2013?

  Alternatively, CVI SP2 from 2013 and 2015 CVI co-exist on the same PC development?

  I would not get stuck with CVI 2013 SP2 for the future just to maintain a few predictable XP-based PC.

  Hi Shr,

  I recommend reading through this community's message: https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-23955

  Essentially, you can develop a code in CVI 2015 but set the executable to run on previous versions of the Run-Time Engine. Note that the older version of the RTE of Side-by-Side CVI is 2012. You can indeed install previous versions of the CVI on the same computer. The shared runtime will be set to the latest version. Other versions will be side-by-side. The code is not guaranteed to work with previous versions of the RTE so be sure to test the code locally before moving on to another computer.

• CVI 2013 SP1 - function calls repeated with pointer on a variable array parameter causes a shift of the index

  I have some functions will be pointers as parameter and CVI 2012 SP1, they work as before without problems but with CVI 2013 SP1 they are now incorrect.

  Here the description of what is happening - I found a cure, but a duty adopt the old code and I think it's clear that nobody don't "captures" all lines in a 'big old code' which are affected (maybe):

  I have functions

  'function_XYZ(int *p_paraArr) '.

  with 'p_paraArr' as pointers on a table (int).

  Suppose I have another function

  "fct_TOP (void)".

  where is a local array variable which is inizialized by

  "int TheArray [25] = {0};

  and inside of this "TOP"-function-body I call a function ".

  "function_XYZ (TheArray).

  There are no complains of the compiler (CVI 2012 or 2013) and the code works (but the CVI 2013 only once!).

  But if I put 'fct_TOP' loop I have a lag in the "TheArray' -memory.  (The loop surrounds the function "TOP"! "")

  This means that the result "TheArray" obtained from "function_XYZ (TheArray)" starts at index '1' not on the index '0' - as the first time that the function "function_XYZ (TheArray)" was performed. ".

  The solution is:

  I only replaced

  "function_XYZ (TheArray)" (<1>)

  by

  "function_XYZ (&(TheArray[0]))" (<2>)

  overall the program now works every time (in the whole loop)-the first time (in the loop).

  In the second version (<2>) everything is necessary to "work well":

  The '&' and parentheses "(...)", which contains the element that may be designated by the '& '.

  And I hope that you believe me: I've tested several times, it was only "little" change that solved the problem.

  So it seems that the ICB 2013 (SP1) is a kind of internal offset index by a repeated execution of the

  "function_XYZ (TheArray).

  but I don't know how or why but I see in debug mode by observing the expected against the values in the table received!

  At the first time the (implicit) internal index of 'TheArray' is '0', but the following times (during the execution of the loop) the internal index passes to '1' (seen in the debugger because that all the expected values were shiftet like that!).

  So there's an explicit index in the table ("function_XYZ (&(TheArray[0]))") necessary to make the first time of this clear code execution.

  There are some good improvements in 2013 CVI (SP1) and I like this environment more than the 2012 version - but:

  There are other "changes" also, in the compiler (or linker...?) that are more rigid than "in ancient times.

  The problem of this kind of error is always the 'old code '!

  It is expected of such behavior.

  The compiler/linker do not complain (a complaint would be good!) writing but he made this mistake (in a loop).

  By the way: my 'compilation Options' are set to 'Extended' (without change in the "..." ("- button - Options) and that all of the boxes, except the" OpenMP_support "-box are checked!"» So I think that I put the very rigid compiler - maybe there are some «...» ' - button - settings to get rid of this problem, but I have not found them/it.

  My request:

  -Check the stiffer compiler by the need of an explicit index

  - or switch to the 'old' behavior with "function_XYZ (TheArray)" always refers to implicit index '0' of the element "TheArray". "."

  Thank you for your messages, comments and suggestions.

  -As I wrote before - maybe it's the style of programming or error"self made"... maybe...
  .. But if I replace 'function_XYZ (TheArray)' by "function_XYZ (&(TheArray[0]))" and
  then it works... Why so and not, if bothe the same? ...

  But as long as I do not post sample code, nobody is going to accept - I accept it. So consider this post more as an allusion to the fact that of the LW/CVI 2012-2013 LW/CVI more changed than just the LW - GUI or certain features: the compiler changed its 'way to'... or almost.

  For this problem, I think that I will use the solution 'use no implicit and explicit pointers'.

  Hello shayisi,

  CVI displays the error dialog box, because it has detected that some functions declared in rs232.h are used in your source file, so he offers to include the header file.

  I would like to ask you to provide some more details about your configuration, so that we can determine if there is a possible bug with CVI 2013:

  1. You are able to build the projects in the sample from the file \rs232?
  2. You have a rs232.c file that is part of your project?
  3. I understand that your project used to build without errors in CVI 2010. Is this correct?
  4. What options have you selected in the Options of language C, one of the options"Compiler Options?

  Thank you!

• Crash of CVI 2013 with the debug version

  Hello

  I'm trying to migrate a large enough project of CVI 2012SP1-CVI 2013 and feels the clang compiler crash when I try a debug on some files.  Clang will also plant (' Labwindows/CVI the Clang compiler has stopped working... ") so I am just trying to compile the file (ctrl-k) in the editor.  Here's what I found:

  • A release not crushed
  
  
  • By turning the C99 power button has no effect
  
  
  • Change the warning level has no effect (other than the types of warnings that I get, of course)
  
  
  • Change the ' debug ' on 'No run-time check' eliminates the crash.
  
  
  • 'Enable. Option of obj"eliminates the crash.
  
  
  • By turning precompiled headers power has the effect.

  Here is the long message I get from the compiler when this happens (including all the warnings that are always displayed when the level is set to 'None'):

  

  Any thoughts?  Unfortunately it's a pretty big project that I can't post and it doesn't seem to be an indication of the or the lines in the file that he has problems with it, so I can't limit, although it seems to hint that he has problems with the structures of some sort.  The PC is running Windows 7 Pro 32 bit if it matters.

  Thank you.

  Hi tstanley,

  We could find the cause of the accident of the compiler from your code. We will settle in the next update and you can follow with bug ID 422577.

  The issue occurs when in a function, you have a call to a function that returns a structure in a global variable and then refer to this world in another function. For example:

  struct Foo foo; global variable foo
  
  Sub FuncA()
  {
  
  foo = GetStructFoo();
  
  }
  Sub FuncB()
  {
  
  do something with foo / / crash
  
  }

  In this case is because we are bad associate information of temporary pointer with foo in FuncA. Then in FuncB, clang will crash when it tries to access this pointer information.

  There are two workaround solutions, but both require changes in the code.

  1. modify the function that returns the structure, GetStructFoo in my example, the return via a pointer parameter:

  void GetStructFoo(Foo *foo);

  2 use a temporary local variable to manipulate the structure returned and then assign its value to the overall structure:

  struct Foo tempFoo;

  tempFoo = GetStructFoo();

  foo = tempFoo;

  In our next update, we will include the fix for this bug.

• Compiler of CVI 2013: increment / decrement operator assessment

  Trying to pull an old project forward to 2013 CVI, I met a challenge, which is documented as follows:

  «In the summons, the value of the right operand is evaluated before indexing table is made in the left operand.» Expressions, such as a[i] = i++; will assess differently in LabWindows/CVI 2013 compared to previous versions. »

  (There is a somewhat related thread here to do with the order of function arguments are evaluated).

  This change in the order of evaluation is shocking to me. I guess there is some C history behind it, and I won't be able to change that.

  So my question is: what is the way easiest to identify all sites in my code where this could concern me? I ~ 75 000 lines of legacy code. Maybe some regex magic?

  Thank you

  Hello

  I'm happy to help you.

  I have test the latest version of clang (3.7 builded SVN), and I can confirm that it detects this 'problem' as a warning (and many other warnings too).

  Also it can integrate with the IDE CVI as external compiler, so it is easy to switch from a regular compiler CVI and this one. I can write a few small "guide" later, if you are interested.

• CVI-2013 SP1 and FDTI development libraries

  We use a test adapter that uses internally a FDTI converter USB to serial. To control the unit, we generate code using FTDIs ftd2xx.lib.

• Satellite R20 - Memory Stick PRO Duo problem

  I looked and saw a lot of similar posts from users with a similar problem. Unfortunately, most of the answers suggested by looking at the user manual and taking note that the phone does not support the Memory Stick PRO Duo. Technically, that's true. However, many Sony cameras come with an adapter that turns the PRO Duo stick a Memory Stick PRO. These include very well in Flash Media Bridge adapter. The manual also indicates that the drive supports this stick.

  What's weird, is that Windows Vista recognizes the insertion of the memory stick, but he then told me that I need to format it before so I can use it. I don't remember what I used the term, but there was a time eventually (with an older driver and/or the installation of XP?) when I could operate using a tip of reboot or something. No, however, I get boor. The stick (and its adapter) work very well. I can read it using another USB adapter. (Connected to my dell monitor 24 "... so not exactly a portable solution)

  My laptop is the Satellite R20 Tablet and my OS is Vista Business

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Duo cards have been gradually were they not? I'm sure that the Duo do not support Toshiba laptops. The only solution is a USB adapter, preferably a compact.

• Printer driver crashes when printing with Office 2013/8 64-bit Windows

  Printer: HP Color LaserJet CM1312nfi

  Printer driver: V5.1 (to date, downloaded from the HP support Web site) or generic V5.6

  OS: Windows 8 Professional 64-bit

  When I try to print an Excel document with Excel 2013 and V5.1 printer driver, the program freezes and must end with the Task Manager. This always occurs with the same document, but not with all the documents. Program also crashes when opening the preview before printing to the same document.

  The same document prints fine with V5.6 generic print driver and with the driver supplied with Windows 8.

  The same document prints fine with the driver version 5.1 on Windows 7 and Office 2010. The combination of Windows 7/Office 2013 has not been tested. Windows 8/Office 2010 combination has also not been tested.

  When I try to print an empty document with the word 2013 and the generic printer V5.6, the program driver crashes and must end with the Task Manager.

  My conclusion is that the HP printer drivers have a problem with Windows 8 or office 2013 or a combination of both.

  The printer driver supplied with Windows 8 and is installed automatically is useful as a temporary workaround, but it lacks some options, e.g. manual duplex.

  Upon request, I am ready to send the Excel document by e-mail for verification of the problem.

  For any help or suggestion will be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance,

  It worked!  Thank you very much.

  Where others have difficulties to find the offending setting, here's another way to track him down.

• CVI 2013 generate invalid code

  Hello

  CVI 2013 generates an invalid code for the function pointer.

  For example, this code works very well in 2012 CVI, but not in CVI 2013. Any idea?

  #include 
  #include 
  
  struct FunctionType
  {
      const char *name;
      void *func;
  };
  
  static const struct FunctionType functions[] =
  {
      { "func", GetFullPathName },
  };
  
  typedef DWORD (WINAPI *GetPathFunc)(LPCSTR, DWORD, LPSTR, LPSTR *);
  
  int main(int argc, char *argv[])
  {
      char buf[256];
      GetPathFunc f = (GetPathFunc)functions[0].func;
  
      if (f != GetFullPathName) {
  
          puts("Invalid ptr");
  
      } else {
  
          if (f(argv[0], sizeof(buf), buf, NULL) > 0) {
  
              puts(buf);
          }
      }
  
      return (0);
  }
  

  Hello hglee,.

  Your code looks fine. I filed the bug report #423480 to follow up the matter.

  Our new compiler important GetFullPathName of inconsistently. The main function, it refers directly to the implementation in the kernel32.dll module. In the static variable, it designates the pointer 'import' for the function (a pointer to the implementation). Interestingly, in CVI 2012 refers us to the 'import stub' in both cases (a jump through the pointer to the implementation).

  As a temporary workaround, you can manually cancel the extra level of indirection by changing a single line in your code:

     GetPathFunc f = *(GetPathFunc*)functions[0].func;
  

  However, it is DANGEROUS because, depending on how we decide how solve the problem, the workaround solution can become a bug itself in the future, and it may crash your program. So please keep that in mind when you change your code (for example, add a comment and a link to this post to remind you).

  Thank you
