path of the vi in exe

Hi all

I want to manipulate a vi in the EXE of the LabVIEW Development System. I have the app running and listening on the port 3364. LV development system I can open an application reference uses the port 3364 and get the names of all the vi in the instance of the application, but I do not know the path of the vi I want to access so I can't open a VI reference for vi.

How to get the path of the vi or open a reference to a vi within the EXE?

Thank you

Ritesh

OK, well, it's much simpler. If the VI is already in memory, that you don't need to worry about paths. All you need is the name of the VI. You will notice that the path entry will also accept a string.

You must give the full including lvlib name or class name it might be in. For example, if a VI named myVI.vi is in a library named myLibrary.lvlib, the full name would be myLibrary.lvlib:myVI.vi (note the colon between the names).

  • LaunchExecutableEx() returns not - 4 when the path of the exe is not found

    LaunchExecutableEx() does not return an error event (or - 3-4) while there is no such thing as the path to the file on the PC I am runing the application on. It returns 0 (as if the exe has succeeded).

    Thank you

    The example works. I thing that I understand the problem.

    I go to the LaunchExecutable is not the right path of the exe. I pass java-jar + path of the exe path to XML format. All LaunchExecutableEx knows is that he has launched java-jar (where it returns 0). Path to the java executable is not relevant to LaunchExecutableEx.

    I guess I'll have to do something else before the call to LaunchExecutableEx to verify executable java and XML are present.

  • Course VI Path returns the location of the original source file, exe does not.

    LV-2010 running.

    I have a VI that opens a PDF style manual when the user clicks a button.  My development project is configured with a project folder main and 3 subfolders called Source, Application and install.  Of course, the source code is in the Source folder.  I also have a copy of the manual for the Application with the application.

    When operating, the VI uses object traced the current VI as starting point for where is the manual.  Current path of the VI includes the Source folder in the path that it generates.  This is not a problem when you run the source code, like the VI is running in this folder.  Problem is that the Source folder is also included in the path generated running on the target computer running the exe.  There is no Source folder on the target computer, so I am at a loss to explain why this is happening.  It's probably a parameter in the constructor of my application, but I can't.  Never had this problem before.  Can anyone help?  Thank you.

  • System cannot find the specified file "[path]" \hpzshl.ice_suffix.. ". exe"on Windows 8.1

    I've updated my OS to Windows 7 64-bit edition of Windows 8.1 pro 64-bit, and when you try to reinstall the software and the driver for my printer HP Officejet J4580 all-in-one I get all sorts of errors. It worked perfectly on Windows 7.

    I get the most common error is: System cannot find the specified file "[path]" \hpzshl.ice_suffix.. ". exe', as well as the facility is abandoned.

    I tried a lot of solutions from the HP Web site and these forums, but my problem is still there.

    I already tried the long solution presented here:

    and

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c04206080

    I even found the directory where installation has been decompressed and copied to the desktop, but the error persists.

    I need the complete software because I need to use my printer Officejet scanner, so I can't just simply print drivers.

    I need desperate help on getting this new work.

    Specifications of the computer:

    CPU: Intel Core i7 - 4820 K Quad-Core 3.70 GHz 10 MB Intel Smart Cache LGA2011

    : DDR3 memory / 1866 MHz Quad Channel 16GB (4GBx4)

    Printer: HP Officejet J4580 all-in-one; connected via USB

    OS: 8.1 Pro 64 bit Windows

    GPU: AMD Radeon R9 200 series

    I finally solved it by myself after many hours of pain.

    I clean any installation of HP from my computer using the HP Officejet software and driver removal utility:

    http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=MP-110151-1&cc=us&DLC=en&LC=en&OS=4158&product=3645100&sw_lang=

    After the computer restarts, I moved on the desktop, the installation directory unpacked that HP printer install wizard for Windows had previously downloaded and launched.

    I deleted all files in the directory %Temp%.

    I disabled McAfee antivirus real time and Windows Deffender analysis.

    I ran the setup.exe in the installation directory in my office.

    The installation is smoothly and completed. I have already tested the printer and all features function normally.

    I hope these steps help someone with similar problems to get the software installed.

  • 2010 user.lib path to the executable file changed since 2009 (1abvi3w)

    Our group has often using VI server to control the other executables LabVIEW for automated tests. We expect the VI to be within the executable to control via Server executable VI screws and screws we need to construct the full path.

    For LabVIEW 2009 user.lib screw the path used to appear as:

    . exe\LabVIEW 2009\user.lib\...

    For LabVIEW 2010 user.lib screw (on Win XP AND Win 7) the path appears now as:

    . exe\1abvi3w\user.lib\...

    It's just information for developers. He really threw a key in our calls to the VI server and are uncertain as to why he's changed and why his "1abvi3w". Who's the funny guy?

    Seriously, why this change and why to use a '1' and '3 '. Is this an attempt of 1337 speak?

    Paths in applications applications are based on the hierarchy of the source of VI. For files in the directory of LabVIEW, the LabVIEW directory real name was used in 2009. It was ok except when creating relies on platforms or on multiple computers where LabVIEW has been installed to a different location. So for 2010, a single, constant directory name has been chosen.

  • additional folder added based on the current path of the vi when compiled in executable

    I found a new problem (for me) with the 'current path of vi' work today. When I compile the source code into an executable, I get a strange response from the service.

    I expect to see 'application.exe\application.vi '.  What I see is "application.exe\folder\application.vi. It's ruining my normal routines that address automatically step of removal of additional path that is required when moving between executable files and source code. I understand that I can use the "Application Directory" function and it does not solve this problem. However, as a test, I created a separate program with only the 'path of vi current' function and it worked again normally (application.exe\application.vi). There seems to be something specific to this one application that I don't understand.

    I tried a force all recompile (ctrl-shift-run arrow) and this did not help. I created a new project with the same source, and this did not help. I recorded the source under a different file name file and created a new project for this new source file and it did not help. I was using the function of the path of the current vi twice in top level vi, then I changed to use it only once and it did not help.

    I'm running out of ideas, and it is a project big enough that I really don't want to start over. The extra folder is the path to the file source vi. Any ideas on what would cause additional file information to be inserted in the path returned by the function of the current path of the vi?

    I use LV2012

    Generally, you shouldn't care how exactly screw are stored inside the EXE. If you care, this means that your code relies on it, which is a problem. What follows is general and can be inaccurate, simply because I don't like enough to actually check OK how it is:

    1. The EXE file is basically a folder zipped with the screw and the runtime of LV simply loads and works.
    2. If you use the indicator 8.x, you get a flat structure in the EXE. This is not your case, and I would not recommend it in any case.
    3. If the flag is set to false, LV basically takes all the screws that must go into the exe (static libraries dependencies and included screws) and places them in the EXE file using the same exact folder structure as code. This allows to undress and to build paths and having the code works the same way.
    4. Code that is located in the LV folder (such as the vi.lib code) is placed in a top-level called 1abv1ew folder, so it can be found.
    5. If you need to get the path of the folder, use the app dir VI.
    6. If you need to get a path to VI, use a static reference to the VI and a property node to get its path property. It works in dev and EXE.
    7. Virtual folders are not relevant (that they are not paths). AutoFill files are linked on the disk, so they do not reflect the path, but it's not really relevant. Jeff was simply pointing out that this may reflect the path and that he does not like them.
    8. Most likely your problem (since you say that something is changing) is that you are sometimes a VI that is not in the same top-level VI folder hierarchy, which then changes the top-level folder in the EXE (I'm guessing a VI of another project?). It's pretty easy to check by going to the project files tab and see if you have screws to another folder.

    I hope this helps explain, but as I said, you should generally not care on this issue. The only good reason I can think to need to know is if the paths inside the EXE exceed the limit on the length of path of the operating system, and then you start dealing with that. Except that just use the golden rule that screws inside the EXE will have the same structure as they did before, and to put you outside the EXE should use the app dir VI.

  • How to get the file setup.exe to the next level?

    Greetings!

    I am building an application for distribution of my project.

    When I finished, I have the following file system to copy on a CD:

    -Folder of install main application

    -Application.exe (and alias and ini)

    -file data

    -File volume

    -bin folder

    -license file

    -folder supportfiles

    -nidist.id

    -setup.exe

    -setup.ini.

    I would get the setup.exe file to be on top (in the installation folder main application), so that a user can immediately find this file to start the installation.

    Is there a way to achieve this?

    I tried to do shortcuts, but the path of the shortcut is absolute, so it does not work on the CD.

    Thanks for any help!

    This configuration file is typical, if you create the Setup program in the same directory as the executable (which would by default).

    But please note that the Volume file is the full installer. So if you want to distribute the application, please use the Volume folder (and its contents) only!

    The bin folder contains the files * .cab - who are the installation for the MSI (Microsoft Installer) files. These files contain the files you want to distribute, if your application, application settings (ini and aliases), as well as the data folder.

    So you see if you copy the Installer Application folder any hand, introduce redundancies have occurred in these files...

  • How to remove the virus boostspeed.exe

    How to remove the virus boostspeed.exe

    Hi Laurence,.

    As far as I KNOW, you're talking about Auslogics Bootspeed, and it is a program (even if some consider how he acts and what he does to be very similar to how the system will react as if he was infected).  For technical support, see: http://www.auslogics.com/en/support/.

    If it's this product, there seems to be any special product online removal process (but perhaps custom support can help). If it isn't this product or there is nothing like it on your system, then why do you assume that it is a virus - are guessing you or some AV programs, told you that (and if so, which) and how locate you the file name as being the problem?  What is the full path to the file (for example, C:\Program Auslogics... or other)?    What security software you have installed (all names and the exact version of each)?  What version of Windows are you using?  Indeed, please see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555375 for ideas on other information that will help us.  The more we know, the better we can help and the more focused we can make recommendations.

    I would try the following: start by creating a system restore point, and then back up the registry as well (just to be on the safe side).

    Download the free Revo: http://www.revouninstaller.com/revo_uninstaller_free_download.html and use it in advanced mode to completely remove Auslogics Bootspeed.  If it does not work because it says it is running (which is possible if there is probably not), then start safe mode and try again to remove use Revo in Mode safe.  The chances of success are much higher now that it is not likely to be running in Mode safe.

    I hope this helps.  Please get back to us in all cases, and if it haunts you again, please answer these questions as well as what happened when you tried to remove it as suggested.  On this basis, we will have a better idea if we treat just a difficult program to remove or legitimate an infection of any (or possibly both) and take the necessary measures from there - but we need to learn more and to see if the simple answer works (or why it failed).  We desperately need your help here (provision of information) to be able to help (with recommendations and options and courses of action - or more questions).

    Thanks and good luck!

  • Path of the DLL

    A vi need to call a dll. Can I know where to place the dll.

    The vi is inside a vi library. Later perhaps need compile all the screws in exe.

    Any suggestion, thank you.

    Custom DLL must not be in the project directory, but can reside in the same directory that your library are screws. As long as you copy the entire library, including the DLL only once, it should work properly. The LabVIEW application builder will be for all the DLLs where you have not entered only the DLL name alone (it always shows the current path in the path of the library, but it is important, how you entered it) include them in the support directory and fits to any node Library Call in the executable file to point to this location.

    For DLLs where you entered only the name of the DLL, LabVIEW assumes (rightly) that it is a system library like any DLL that would be in the directory orSystem (32) Windows or in any directory in the PATH environment variable and does not include it in the application of molding, but allows to locate the right also DLL in the Windows executable file

    Especially for Windows system DLLS, it is very important to NEVER include in your built application. Outside the license issues (you have not the right to distribute the Windows DLL components) a system DLL different one installed in a system will almost always cause serious problems. Especially if an application uses its own version of a DLL as kernel32.dll it will fail badly as the version of the DLL has no idea on the already created system objects in the DLL loaded correctly elsewhere in Windows and will simply crash on many function calls.

  • path of the image file that links do not correctly in the executable file

    I have a jpeg file in a project that I'm building which is not loading when run as an executable file.  The executable seems to be looking in the same directory that the image file was originally instead of the support folder where the image is deployed.  On another machine, the exe will look for the image in the directory, that were found on my machine.  When I drag the image file of the project on the block diagram Explorer, it creates a constant path of file indicates where the file is located on my machine.  This does not seem to update when I build the exe.  The image file is included in the source files.  Any help is appreciated!

    A constant path is... Yes indeed constant! It's not automatically change whenever someone might move the file too, whatever his imagination made her do. He does not maintain a link to the actual file it could use later to detect that the file has been moved elsewhere. In fact Windows has quite such a mechanism.

    So if you want to access an external file to your executable application to first do a correct path when running. My approach is to put in a directory from a VI file that I put in my application. Then in this VI use the way of getting current VI, band name the VI of it and add the location relative to the other file to it.

    If you do something like this:

    The project directory

    Directory of the utility

    My Location.vi

    Data directory

    MyResource.jpg

    in system development, then:

    The application directory

    MyApplication.exe

    Data directory

    MyResource.jpg

    in the application of the construction.

    With this provision, it doesn't matter even if you use the old format of executable LabVIEW 8.x or the new default format since LabVIEW 2009.

    My Location.vi is just a VI that takes a relative path in the entry (in this case "... / directory/MyResource.jpg data" called the "Current path to VI" node, use 'Band path' to remove the name of VI, then build to add this entry path, and this is!.)
