Distribution with CVI 8.0.1 construction kit fails after installation of CVI 2010

Update out of the newspaper:

Adding files to install

**************
Internal error: A tool or the library returned an error. (Error code - 21)
**************
Error details:
Error to the MDF API function: _MDFBuildDevPartMerger_Load
returned nmdkLoadMergeModule code error 26152
Final report of the error
**************

This happened earlier. CVI 7.1.1 and earlier versions than 8.0.1 (i.e. + 8.1.1) work.

Any help would be appreciated.

It turns out there are two different problems that arise in the CVI 8.0 distribution builds when you CVI 2009 or newer installed:

  1. Support for ActiveX container will not be included if you install the runtime in the application directory, or if you're not going under the grouping of LabWindows/CVI Run-Time Engine. In these cases, the ActiveX container merge module should be used and ICB 8.0 won't be able to find it.

  2. The merge module Instrument Driver Run-Time (instrsup.msm) and the Mesa merge module (NIMesaDLL.msm) cannot be moved to the application directory (which is the option on the Advanced tab that I mentioned in the previous post). This will result in the construction of distribution fails with the error you reported.

To solve the first problem, I recommend the copy of C:\Program Files\Common Files\Merge Modules\ActiveX_Container.msm and rename the copy with a space instead of a line of underscore ("ActiveX Container.msm").

The second question has no easy workaround. If acceptable for your use case, I would say either making the performance overall installation (by unchecking the option in the Advanced tab) or removing the CVI build runtime of your distribution. In the latter case, your application would be based on an already mounted overall CVI runtime engine.

If any of those who will work for you, I can get you copies of pre-2009 instrsup.msm and NIMesaDLL.msm that you would have to manually exchange and out with versions in your common Files\Merge Modules directory whenever you have need to build this distribution in CVI 8.0.

I am sorry for these questions. Let me know if you need these older modules.

  • Alignment of memory with CVI 2013 problem

    Hello

    I just installed 2013 CVI from CVI 2010 and opening my old projects, I'm in trouble with the alignment of the memory.

    Not in all the projects that I opened, I get the problem, and I'm quite confused about this.

    I used to keep in line with the limits of 1 byte of memory and I have thousands and thousands of saved file with this method.

    I have prepared a very simple project (attached to this post) to illustrate the problem, consider that the result would have been with CVI 2010 'occupation of 5 bytes.

  • "Mesa.dll is not found" from CVI 2010 installation

    When I launch an executable file that has been installed from a distribution kit created with CVI 2010 (360), I get the message "Mesa.dll is not found." But I do not see that the file is installed in C:\Program NIUninstaller Instruments\Shared\Mesa.  If I replace this file with a mesa.dll more than a previous version of the CVI, my newly installed executable launches properly.

    Hi mrtqs,

    While testing on this issue, I came across a similar problem.  From my understanding, the CVI Run - Time Engine will also install of VS 2008 C++ Runtime parts.  According to that the CVI Run Time options you choose to install a different part of the runtime C++ 2008 VS will be included in the installation.  It seems that Microsoft has been able to modify the runtime C++ VS 2008 for some parts, but not others, which is what causes the problem.  As a result, there are a few options:

    1. install the runtime full CVI with default settings

    2 leave out the ActiveX module if does not necessary

    3. install the runtime C++ 2008 VS separately on the deployment computer.

  • Cannot compile the project in CVI 2009 which were previously opened in CVI 2010

    This was extremely irrititating and does not know what the devil.  I have a computer with CVI 2010 and separated with CVI 2009.

    I have a project and the CWS, which was established in 2009.

    I opened and recompiled in CVI 2010 things since then, ensuring that I saved my .uir file in a CVI 2009 version or earlier.

    I usually open the file .prj or .cws on my computer of CVI 2009, but trying to compile and run in debug mode, all of the CVI crashes.  How can I recompile and work with it on my computer of CVI 2009?

    Am I missing something here?  Tehre are no error, warnings or reports of incidents, CVI righteous acts as I hit Alt + F4


  • Executable built with CVI 8.1 error-5093, the analysis library is not found

    Upgraded to 8.1 Labwindows/CVI of Labwindows/CVI 7.0 development machines. An earlier application was built using the ICB 7.0 and installed on a test computer. The same code built with CVI 8.1 is any error during execution of the function stdev, 5093 error code has been generated. (From analysis.h: LibraryNotFoundAnlysErr =-5093, / / the analysis library was not found.) Tried to build a facility with 8.1 and installation on the test computer and application errors still executing the stdev function. Back to the same application, but built with CVI 7.0, it works fine. Am I missing something with the build in 8.1 options? Or is it something in the workspace or project? Please notify. Thanks in advance

    Hi Tommy,.

    In CVI 8.0, the implementation of the analysis library has changed a static library that is linked to your .exe in a DLL that must be loaded when running. If you rebuild your source code and you want to deploy to another machine where the CVI environment is not installed, then you must re-create an installer in CVI 8.1 distribution, so that he can pack the analysis as well as your program library.

    You can confirm whether the analysis library is installed by searching for C:\Program NIUninstaller Instruments\Shared\Analysis\nianlys.dll in your target machine (although it is not enough to simply copy this file manually).

    When you create an installer in the CVI, be sure that, in the tab drivers & components in the dialog box change Installer , support of analysis element under the Group of LabWindows/CVI Run-Time Engine is checked.

  • 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.

  • Warning of 'Empty Declaration' ShObjIdl.h with CVI 9.0

    Just installed CVI 9.0 and now my project generates a warning of 'Empty Declaration' in ShObjIdl.h on line 1330

    I am including shlobj.h to support the use of SHGetFolderPath() and shlobj.h consists in turn ShObjIdl.h

    I think I have the same options as before compiler with 8.5.1.  I note that there is a new version of the SDK with CVI 9 probable factors in the explanation.

    Is this a cause for concern?

    -Ian

    Oops. It seems that I did a copy/paste error in this post, and Ian never called me on this subject. As I said, he must add a #define, not a typedef:

    #define tagSHCONTF shcontf_dummy {shcontf_dummy} shcontf_dummy_typedef; tagSHCONTF Enumeration
    #include

  • Web server with CVI

    Hello

    I want to know if it is possible to create a webserver with CVI so that I can connect my application and see the data with internet Explorer?

    Backround: we run a CVI-application on a computer within a network. On this computer, collect US data from different systems and publish these data in a sign of the CVI. Users who want to see the data, connect to the computer with a remote control software.

    Now, we wondered if it is possible to create a web server with CVI. And if the user cannot see the data on his computer using internet Explorer.

    In the forum, we found a few messages very old. Are there new items on this subject?

  • Sapera LT with CVI

    Now this is heresy...

    Anyone could use a framegrabber DALSA and the Sapera LT C programming API to capture video from a CVI application?

    DALSA announces a C API language, it is not certain that it is possible to work with something else using PVC as a C compiler (which it can do - PCV is also a compiler C89 but not a C99 compiler).

    Thank you.

    You can do with the api of 'base' which is a Sapera ANSI C interface.  I had to UNDEF as some multiply integer type limits, then he compiled, linked and ran everything is OK.  I used the interface "framegrabber' rather than the 'camera' interface or"peripheral"to catch a ground test on a simulator.  I used the CCA and .cvi files that I created using CamExpert.

    I did it with CVI 9.1, WinXP SP3, will undermine LT 7.0.0, X 64 driver 1.5.  Works with single and double head X 64 acquisition cards.

    So using a framegrabber NOR is nice, it is also possible to use a framegrabber DALSA of CVI.

  • Sapera LT used with CVI

    Is that what someone has successfully used vision of DALSA, Sapera LT, with CVI library?

    Sapera LT supposedly has a C language interface.

    I have this poster in the forum of machine vision, but he seems to be more a SW problem (if, indeed, there are problems) a matter of HW.

    In principle, any standard interface of C (C89) should work with CVI I think... If it's for a framegrabber DALSA, or anything else.

    I was just curious if anyone had tried this specific thing, and if so, how it worked.

    Thank you

    Menchar-

    It turns out that you can use Sapera LT with CVI 2009.  You use the api 'base' which is an interface in ANSI C with the export header file and import for the DLL library is involved.  During compilation, I found 6 #defines which were redefined to somehow - the limits they were constant max on the different types of integers.    It seemed the stuff of limits.h, but it wasn't - I never figure out how or where he defined twice, so I just #undef had these just before the place where was held the redefinition and the problem disappeared.

    I was unable to use the framegrabber as a "camera" (peripheral), I used as a 'framegrabber"and loaded separately from the configuration files CCA and .cvi instead of a camera (.ccf) configuration file.  I have hooked up to a simulator CameraLink and grabbed a focus, then he wrote on the disk.  A close inspection of the data showed that it was seizing everything is OK.

    I used the 1.5 LT Sapera 7.0.0 and X 64 driver version.

    So I feel pretty good about this so far.

  • Dist. Kit fails to install, a newer version already exists of reports

    I'm with CVI 8.5.1 on Windows XP sp 2.  distribution kit fails to install executable for a project, sites that have a newer version already exists.  However, previous versions did exist on either the c: drive or that they appear in the Control Panel Add / Remove programs.  Any ideas?

    Rick

    The installation program is to find indications that the release 1.0.14 of your software already exists on the system. If this is not true, then he could have some problems when uninstalling this version. If you search your registry database for the product code {7D8D2E0B-CEB1-44D0-A081-1B0C039F9157}, I'm sure you'll get some hits. If the software cannot be uninstalled from Add/Remove programs as you say, then I recommend to use the enclosed MSIBlast utility to remove the order of it. Unzip and run the program, and then check the box "Display all installers" at the top. Find your software (by name, but check the product code) in the list, and then uninstall it. Be very careful when you use this utility that you uninstall the right thing. You don't want to accidentally delete something important.
