TestStand do not call a Labview DLL copied to a new location.

TestStand v4.2 & v8.6.1 LabVIEW: I have a problem with TestStand calling a Labview project DLL. It will call the DLL successfully if it points its record source (the directory where the DLL was built. However if the DLL is copied to the clients working directory and the appellant TestStand step points to the copied DLL, the problem occurs. The TestStand calls the DLL from the working directory of the client, but does not execute the DLL, simply set the status of the step to "Done" where he clearly didn't.

The vi named in the DLL has correctly, all handles error clusters such that if there is an error in the vi running, the error would be forwarded to TestStand.

Any ideas please?

Update: the original problem was never solved, but another method was used successfully to generate an Excel results worksheet. This used controls Active-X to open a file, import a model, write the data, close the file, and then make the new file read-only. It now everything works fine.

  • Error: The file has properties that cannot be copied to the new location

    Hi, I have a problem when copying the files in my windows 7 PC to my Sansa clip 4 GB of sport.

    This error appears when I transfer them to any folder on my sport Clip:

    Are you sure you want to copy this file without its properties?
    The file has properties that cannot be copied to the new location.

    I can click Yes or not (when I click Yes, the file is copied to the new location)

    The reason why I ask is the following:
    The file will be somewhat different after being copied on my sport Clip?
    This is a file audio subliminal message to help me overcome some mental problems, so it would be bad if the file is modified after copying...

    The file plays perfectly and sound quality seems very good.
    However, I still need to know if the file is modified in a way?

    The device is correctly detected, but in the manual it says that when you go into my computer and click on the Sansa Clip Sports, you must click on a folder in the internal memory and then you will find a folder of music.

    But it is not at all a folder in the internal memory...

    When I click on Sansa Clip sport, I see these folders:
    Sound, music, audio books, Podcasts, playlists.
    AUDBOOK. LIB, AUDIBLE. LIB, M3U. LIB, MUSIC. LIB, PODCAST. LIB, version.sdk

    Thank you in advance, I really hope that someone will answer you

    The file properties check the metadata associated with the file.  This error occurs generally when the file was created on an NTFS volume and some of the assosiated with this file metadata is not supported on a FAT32 volume. What you mean actually is not associated with file properties, so it would not be changed.

  • Get the 1097 error when trying to call a Labview DLL

    I had to write a wrapper DLL to use some functions in the DLL to a third party, and I'm having a few problems. I created an executable to test my code and it works fine, but when I try to execute the same function in the DLL that I created in Labview, I get error 1097. I read through most of the posts on this forum about this issue, but none of the proposed solutions are working for me. I'm sure this isn't a question of transfer settings to COLD LAKE because I changed the function so it only accepts a single entry (a number he obtains from a Subvi, which came from the third-party DLL, this entry is working with a bunch of other functions, so I don't think that is the question).

    I have attached the C code that creates the wrapper, but I don't know how it is useful without familiarity with the functions of the original DLL. I hope that someone can spot something basic I am out of my code, but please let me know if I need to call something else.

    I use a Labview 32 bit version 2012 on a 64-bit Windows 7 computer.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    You should read the documentation on LoadLibrary() and understand. Essentially if you provide a full path to LoadLibrary() the DLL MUST be present at this place so that LoadLibrary() will succeed. If you pass only the name Windows DLL will ONLY search in these places:

    (1) if the module (the DLL) is already loaded it will return a handle to the loaded module and increment its reference count

    (2) if the referencing module contains a manifest (either incorporated into the image module or in a separate manifest file in the same directory as the executablemodule) specyfying a version number for this DLL will load this DLL with this version of the SxS (side by side) location and failure if it is not present

    (3) if the executable load contains a manifest (either incorporated in the executable file or in a separate manifest file in the same directory as the executable file) number specyfying a version for this DLL, it will load this DLL with this version of the location of SxS (side by side) and fail if it is not present

    (4) it will search for the DLL in the same directory as the directory where the current image of the process is loaded. It is NOT the directory of the DLL loading the DLL, BUT the directory where the EXE file from which the process was created.

    (5) in the system directory

    (6) in the Windows directory

    (7) any directory in the PATH environment variable

    (8) the path of current directory which is a location managed by windows by process and changed the two explicitedly when the application calls the API SetCurrentDirectory() but also implicitedly by things like the file selection dialog whenever it is rejected by other means than the undo operation.

    Essentially putting your dependend DLL in the same directory as the wrapper DLL does NOT work when you use the name of the DLL only UNLESS you place the two DLLs in the same directory as your executable file. If you don't want this restriction and want to be able to move these modules together in different directories, you don't have to create the correct path in your wrapper to LoadLibrary(). Basically, you must have the code to determine the location of your DLL wrapper path and then strip her own name and add the DLL name wrapped in it and then move to the LoadLibrary().

    There are several ways to determine the path of the current module. The simplest if you don't mind having the name hard-coded in your code DLL would be to ask GetModuleFileName (GetModuleHandle ("yourDLLname"), buffer, size).

  • LiveCycle Form - submit does not work when they are copied to the new application folder

    I basically copied my application folder app1 app2 of request code; nothing else has really changed.  I even did a global search and replace for 'app1\' to 'app2\ '; However, the submission process is used to working in the app1 file no longer works now.  Someone please guidance on what could be wrong?  I'm not allowed to post these forms.  Thanks in advance!

    It is a good idea.  In my case, I was able to solve the problem simply by performing a regular expression replacement:

    "\bapp1\b" with "app2"; of course, it's high risk, as "app1" was everywhere in my particular project.  In addition, the "xml" of resource file needs to be renamed in app2 when they are copied to the adobe/config file to avoid a collison name (if separate app1 and app2 to work).  For me, it worked; However, I could easily imagine a project where all this change of name would cause problems, I hope that those who would be easily traceable.  But thanks for the answer, it is always appreciated.

  • Cannot "import and copy it to the new location" when imported into another catalog

    I have only one LR Master catalog on my desktop computer (Mac Pro). When I shoot on location, I use my laptop (MacBookPro retina), with an external HD which stores a temporary catalog of 'Place' LR and photos. Both machines run the Mavericks. When I go home, I connect the external drive 'place' to my desktop, choose "Import an another catalog" and navigate to the catalog 'Place' on the external HD normally I have the option "import and copy to a new location, so that the new originals are moved to my master of library of images on an internal HD dedicated in the MacPro.

  • Loop timed in LabVIEW DLL does not close

    Hello!  I have what I think, it is a simple loop timed in LabVIEW that stops after 100 iterations by throwing an error and letting the loop 'stop on error.  It works fine when it is executed in the ordinary LabVIEW environment, however, when compiled as a Dynamic Linked Library (DLL) and called from LabWindows it requires me to put an end to execution, rather than going out nicely.  As well, it seems to leave the real appeal of virtual Instrument very well and go to the next line of code, but when my function main() in LabWindows is completed it must always be something not cleaned which is the cause not come out well.  Any ideas?   I tried to add only a call to QuitLabVIEW and that doesn't seem to do it.

    Thanks in advance - hoping you will notice an error really easy. )

    A photo of the timed loop is attached.

    An excerpt from the code of LabWindows:

    int main)
    {
    CallMyLabVIEWDLL();  This line launches successfully and closed the window for my virtual instrument LabVIEW
    MessagePopup ("' My Title:", "That occurs after the call to your LabVIEW DLL" ");    This popup appears - indicating the call to the DLL has finished

    But after the code has completed LabWindows always shows "running", rather than close.

    return 0;
    }

    Why do you use a loop timed in the windows environment?  They are best used for real-time environments (not windows) and tend to have more support than the time.

    Is there a particular reason, a while loop will not work?

  • LabVIEW crashes after the call to the DLL

    Hi all

    I'm working on writing a wrapper for a dll. The call to the dll works fine a returns the appropriate values, but as soon as I close the VI dev LabVIEW environment crashes. Any help to avoid the same. I've been through a lot of posts and I tried varying the types of data sent to the dll, but again it gets crashed.

    the dll function that I use is the prototype (with the calling convention of type C)

    int nomfonction (Struct * cfg, UCHAR dNumber, UCHAR hTYPE)

    The varables UCHAR I'm passing as of 8-bit unsigned integers.

    For the structure, I did a cluster and pass with adapted to the Type and handles.

    The DLL is running very well and the VI stops, too, but as soon as I try to close the dev environment VI crashes. Help, please.

    Thank you.

    It is always possible that there is a bug in your DLL, or you're a failure calling a function in the DLL that is required in order to properly clean. The problem is perhaps not the way you have set up the call library function node.

    If you post: your VI; the header file that defines the structure of the cfg and the function prototype; and all the documentation on the function, so we can tell you if it is properly configured. Without this information there is little we can do.

  • From the telnet session between calls of LabVIEW, TestStand

    TestStand, I'll call telnet.llb VI.

    In a step TestStand am opening a telnet session to IP address and the collection of the telnet (U32) connection. In the next step of TestStand, I pass the telnet connection to a telnet writing VI, but this error occurs.

    "Dequeue item to acquire Semaphore.vi:1-> Write.vi:1-> Telnet Write.vi.ProxyCaller Telnet"

    The telnet open, write, read and close the excellent work if I get the number of telnet in the same VI session. But I need to keep the session open between TestStand calls because a huge VI is not possible.

    Thank you

    Josh

    Verify that your adapter for LabVIEW has reserved the execution. If it is already, I don't know, you may need to create a parallel thread that keeps the session active.

  • LabVIEW DLL called from C

    I would like to create a DLL in LabVIEW which can be called from a C program.

    The purpose of the DLL is to display a dialog box along side a C program user interface and view a picture is updated continuously in the program.

    The LabVIEW DLL would be

    1 would be considered to be a dialog box that opens up along the side of the user interface of the C program.

    2. the DLL would regularly be called with the parameters passed by the C program.

    3. the dialog box would contains a picture that is updated by the parameters of the permanence of program C.

    Is this feasible?  I assume that the DLL has to work like a demon, because the DLL is a dialog that must cover along the side of the user interface of C.  To run a DLL written in LabVIEW, is the needs of PC - the runtime?

    Everything was OK until 5. For 6, you do not get a reference to something C. You simply call the exported function that is the VI 'set params.

    I have included a sample project to give you an idea. The code LabVIEW is written in LV 8.2 and the project with a version of a DLL specification. I used c# for this example, but you can easily translate it c If you wish.

  • Problem calling LabVIEW DLL with c#

    Dear all,

    I compiled a few DLLs in LabVIEW and called these DLLs using c#.
    I'm having trouble passing in strings and arrays as input and output of the DLL.

    Whenever I try to view the string I have entered in a dialog box (this part is written in LabVIEW DLL), a LabVIEW message dialog box appears and the program just stuck there.

    Whenever I try to enter a string or an array to the dll, Microsoft Visual Studio would display "attempt read or write protected memory. It is often an indication that other memory has been corrupted. »

    I attached the vi and also the c# .sln file.

    Can you guys please advise where am I wrong?

    Thank you very much.

    You must allocate strings and arrays of output!

    private void button1_Click (object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
    output string;
    int [] value;
    StringOutput ("A", "B", exit, 3, value, 4);
    }
    }

    Your variable output and value must be preallocated to ensure storage of 3 items respectively. 4. and since you want to receive the C string that you need to increase this to 4 characters terminated by a NULL value.

    String in c# is also a not a C string of object pointer. You must declare the StringOutput() function as follows:

    [DllImport("SharedLib.dll",CallingConvention=CallingConvention.StdCall, Charset=CharSet.Ansi]internal static extern int StringOutput(StringBuilder A, StringBuilder B, out StringBuilder StringOutput, int sizeString, out int[] output, int sizeArray);
    

    Then call like this:

    StringBuilder output = new StringBuilder(4);int[4] array = new int[4];
    
    StringOutput("A", "B", output, output.Capacity, value, value.Length);
    

    Please note that I'm not a pro in c# and usually do not do much in it. Also that this code has not been tested or updated at all, so probably contains some errors. He however point you in the direction of where to look further.

    What you need to understand, is that the C DLL that you created in LabVIEW has a so-called unmanaged interface. This means c# is not able to know how to manage the memory for the parameters at all and you have to do everything yourself, where the obligation to explicitedly initialize variables output and table with a block of memory préallouée.

  • TestStand can not find that all exported DLL functions

    Hi all

    My problem is the following:

    I have a DLL that I compile with Visual Studio with 40 functions. When I want to use this DLL in teststand, there are two missing functions. If I check with the dependency walker, the 2 missing function in teststand tool are well implemented.

    The missing function prototype:

    struct HModemBoardOpaqueType * mbCreateModemBoard (void)

    Good function prototype:

    enum UbtDllErrorCode mbDisconnectFromModemboard(struct HModemBoardOpaqueType *)

    Is that possible that teststand does not structure opaque type correctly?

    If I export my function type C (with extern C) no function is missing from the test bench

    Thank you

    What version of TestStand do you use? Older versions of TestStand only supported zero, digital and Boolean data types for the return values of the adapter of the dll. More recent versions of TestStand are now supported pointer/handle as well. New versions of TestStand I expect you can use such a prototype with the handle/pointer data type. However, if you want to convert this struct to an equivalent TestStand custom data type, you need to make a parameter instead of a return value, as the card does not support the conversion of struct for return values.

    Basically returning a struct pointer this way (as return value) is dangerous in C/C++, because it is not possible to know who owns the memory. The type of pointer/handle allows you to do anyway, but it must be properly to maintain life of memory return you at a lower level (i.e. maybe with an exported function that uses the pointer who knows how free it).

    Hope this helps,

    The cRIO running Windows or LabVIEW RT as operating system? I guess that's LabVIEW RT - is the DLL compiled/compatible with Phar Lap (LabVIEW RT OS) or is it a Windows DLL?

    The configuration of nodes to call a library function will be * always * look on your PC (it is a dialogue of Solution Explorer, after all), not the drive on target. Normally, you must configure the DLL to use a relative path (for example by specifying just the name of the DLL or by directly plugging the path (check under the path)).
