Typedef in an executable path

Hi, I am developing code in LabVIEW 2011 which uses typedef had controls.  Some of them are rather large networks, and data from these controls are received a string of server interaction.  We found a way to fill in the tables (including the conversion of a string to the appropriate data types) using a predefined VI called dynamically by the code.  The VI must reside in the same folder, and the name must match the name of typedef (but with an extension .vi).

Here is my challenge...  In the development environment, I use a node property to get the path of the reference control Typedef.  Once I have create code in an executable file, it will not execute because the Path of Typedef property is a property of script that is not available in the runtime.

Has anyone had a problem similar to this one, and if so, how to overcome this obstacle?

Thanks in advance,

David Dupont

Are you sure that this is the case? I have not tested, but the help says that it is supposed to work in the TEN. Of course, aid is not necessarily fair, but it's worth the trip. For example, it may not work because your spec build disconnects typedefs (although my understanding is that you do not build these screws) or because you are missing code that is compiled or due to dependency conflicts, etc..

The point is that you should look at the details of the exact error and see where and how it crashes. I guess you, but since you don't give these details I can't be sure.

If all else fails, I would say running a manual/automatic process in BT during the construction of these plugins that will store this information in a lookup table any (FP of the plugin VI/text database / file in the same folder, etc.) and then have the EXE, read the information from there. That looks like it would work less conversion than the option of classes.

  • Reminders does not work in the executable LabVIEW front panel

    I have a couple of reminders in the process template that trigger an event in the event structure to update of the lights on the front panel for the user. Everything works fine until I have create an executable file. This can also be an indication of the other points, I have not discovered yet.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks for all the help.

    Found!

    Not unlike most of LabVIEW developers, I have a range of utility screws that I use over and over again. Such vi is vi uses a property node to find out what environment the application is running in, i.e. .llb, exe, development, publishing student, etc.. This vi is used because SEO screws in an executable file have a way different than when their listing in the development environment. Using this vi allows your code to reference the screws properly when developing and when the executable is built. The code still works because it automatically adjusts the referenced path of the vi. See attachment 'Path Finder.vi environment'.

    Now for the fun part! For some reason, perhaps because of the friendly character of NOR and the relationship it is with its developers :-), AND decided to change the path of the executables in LabVIEW 2009. After hours of troubleshooting and countless rebuilt, I came to the conclusion that the ' paths of the band of "work magically stopped working. It was at this time one of my friends happened to walk and ask why I had everything in my monitor across the room (figuratively speaking of course, I'm sure we've all been there). I explained what could be the only conclusion, band paths do not work!

    My friend immediately began laughing, having recently had the same problem. He explained that in LabVIEW 2009 executable paths are different and our 'find the path vi' would not work. He added that NOR, after finding this funny, however gave the developers a way to solve this problem with a check box within the app Builder. The box is called "Layout using LabVIEW 8.x file." See attached photo named "App Builder."

    The only thing I could say to my friend was, ' silly me, I should have know what that.»

  • Is it possible to include a native executable in the extension package?

    Hello

    I need to call the native code of the CS using the NativeProcess API extension.

    Is it possible to distribute a native executable file in the extension package?

    It seems that there is a way to include a 'regular' in a hybrid extension file, however, the file must be installed in one of the predefined locations (for example, "$applicationsupport").

    The problem is that to create a NativeProcess object in the extension code, I need to know the correct executable path, and I can't seem to find a way to know where exactly the executable file was placed by the installation of the extension program.

    Is it possible to install an executable file in the folder of the extension (that I can get to CSXSInterface.getInstance (.getSystemPath(APPLICATION)))?

    Thank you

    Anatoly

    Is it possible to install an executable file in the folder of the extension (that I can get by using CSXSInterface.getInstance () .getSystemPath (APP))?

    Well Yes, the answer depends on how you are packaging your extension.

    If you use the Builder Extension, you just need the executable file and are automatically copied into the folder bin-debug during the build process. The easiest way to do this is to put the executable file under src / folder. Another option is to make your own resources / directory and add it to the project's source path (see the section "Adding resources files, the path of the source project" here: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Flex/4.0/UsingFlashBuilder/WS6f97d7caa66ef6eb1e63e3d11b6c4ce74 9 - 7fd8.html). Once you have copy to the folder bin-debug, you're ready, you can start or export as usual and your executable will be reflected in the record of the extension.

    If you use ucf.jar, just make sure that your executable is the file extension that you're packing.

    You will need to should not create a hybrid extension in order to have a CS extension that uses NativeProcess.

  • TestStand to deploy to EXE

    I'm a Solution of TestStand deployment in an executable format, but I have a VI which is the interface chart user by the name of reference. When I build the GUI in one executable path to the vi is no longer relevant.  Does anyone know how to set the path to a VI that is now an executable?

    Hey Kevin,

    In this case, you should probably use the step calling executable.  Right click > insert step > call executable or select from the Palette of Insertion.  He's here to call applications, which is essentially what you have built.  You can learn more on this topic in help.

    Hi Jorge,.

    This is the problem of the ususal: in the executable path to your dynamically loaded VI Exchange.

    You have defined to be included in the executable. If the path passes to Appdir\DynLoad.exe\LoadMeDynamically.vi, but you try to open the path AppDir\LoadMeDynamically.vi...

    Options:

    -check the execution (by the property node) environment to decide which way to use

    -change the location of the VI to "support the directory", this will be a folder named 'data' next to your executable file. Call the VI of this folder. You can do the same thing inside your project to have the same calling conventions in the development and runtime environment...

  • Side-By-Side errors on 99% of the programs... I need help!

    Two nights ago, I turned off my computer and let it install the updates as she did. Windows update history lists as follows:

    Tool to remove malware Windows x 64-may 2009 (KB890830)
    Update definition for Windows Defender - KB915597 (definition 1.57.1329.0)

    Two of them were installed 5/14, I shut down the computer.

    Yesterday, 5/15, I turned on the computer, and Lo and behold, something went horribly wrong. If I try to run one program other than Internet Explorer and Explorer (Windows Update included) basic stuff, I get this error:
    ------
    [Executable path]

    The application has failed to start because its side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Check the log of events applications for more details.
    -----

    I went to the section "Updates installed" programs and features in the control panel section so that I could roll back these patches and discovered that, apparently, no updates have been installed on 5/14, according to that.

    Apparently, however, my google-fu is weak, and very little my research has turned up. Supposedly, there is a DLL error... but all the pages I found were limited to one or two programs - not all single program on the computer.

    I managed to discover that WordPad is working also. Is the file that is broken, according to the application log,
    X86_microsoft. Windows.isolationautomation_6595b64144ccf1df_1.0.0.0_none_35d357a66c38ade4.manifest
    in the C:\Windows\winsxs\ directory. It is supposed to be XML, and instead it's like the old BACK/start Windows INI files... so why windows is finding an XML error on line 0 of the file (or says the event viewer).

    In particular, I'm under Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit... If someone out there happens to perform this same type of system and wants to look for this file and somehow get the content for me, I'd be very happy.

    Success!  I'm so happy that I don't have to reinstall windows (and it would have been very difficult for me to choose to reinstall vista).

    I had a devil of a time getting the permissions set so that I could write the file.  I had to change the permissions on the folder of manifests to allow administrators to write.  Then I had to change the permissions on the wrong file to allow administrators to change.  I chose to rename it with BAD in name rather than delete it.  This allowed me to copy the replacement file in the directory.  I also took possession of the directory and the file to be able to do it, but this may not have been necessary.

    BTW, the only group that has the permission to write to this file is TrustedInstallers.  I guess that windows update shouldn't be in this group.

    After my success I did a system restore point, but that has not helped before.  I also copy the folder of manifests to my backup drive.  All of the 71 046 files.  It takes some time.

    Imported this shell script and above assigned jobs for it but no luck, when I run this job I never see output or less error. It showing the message running for a long time until get session expires.

    Can someone help me to run a shell script.

    Thank you

    The executable file must be %WINDIR%\System32\cmd.exe cmd.exe

    You will also need to create a batch file that comes from this sh.exe and imports that work. Try and let me know.

  • Regedit in the form of 11g installation

    Hello

    I recently installed in my Pc Home, GR 11, 2 and 11 g Database forms.
    I have no experience with the forms on the Web, only Client-Server Developer 6i.
    I have a small retail (about 50 FMAS) Application in Developer 6i, and I would like to convert the FMAS to the new version.

    I know that in Developer 6i, in order to start the application and successfully open a fmb in Forms Builder.
    You must configure the regedit.
    There are some variables (FORMS60_PATH...) where we put the executable path for example in 6i

    FORMS60_PATH: C:\Retail\Bin (if we have the .fmx, the .mmx, the .pll)
    REPORTS60_PATH: C:\Retail\Bin (if we have the RDF)
    UI_ICON: C:\Retail\BIN (if we have the .ico files)


    Now, in my regedit, in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE--> SOFTWARE--> Oracle--> KEY_OH609856842.
    in the right pane, I see a FORMS_PATH that contains

    C:\Oracle\Middleware\FRMHome\forms; C:\Oracle\Middleware\FrmInst\FormsComponent\forms

    a REPORTS_PATH that contains

    C:\Oracle\Middleware\FRMHome\reports\templates; C:\Oracle\Middleware\FRMHome\reports\samples\demo; C:\Oracle\Middleware\FRMHome\reports\printers

    and a UI_ICON, which contains

    C:\Oracle\Middleware\FRMHome\reports\plugins\resource

    I would like to open a fmb 11 GR 2 Form Builder 6i. What I would do in regedit?

    It's just these variables FORMS_PATH, REPORTS_PATH, UI_ICON
    at the beginning to C:\Retail\Bin;


    Thank you and Merry Christmas.

    The basic features of the 11 manufacturer are the same as in 6. This is why the registry entries are also fundamentally the same. The only major difference is that is no longer a reference version in the entries. Thus, for example the path to your modules is listed in FORMS_PATH. The most important changes associated with execution and the inner workings of the form. I recommend that you refer to upgrade guides to better understand what you need to do to move from 6 to 11.

  • Problem loading plugin [MAC Desktop ID] CS5/5.5

    Hi all

    I'm running into a very strange problem. I did 2 plugins (model and user interface). They work perfectly on windows.

    But sometimes, on mac, when I put them in a folder within the plug-ins folder (for example < path to indesign app > / Plug-Ins/MyAccount), plugins do not show, but they get loaded as long as the total is increased by 2.

    If I put the plugins directly in the Plug-Ins folder, they get loads and they are also.

    Also placing them in a subfolder (for example < path to indesign app > / Plug-Ins /myFolder) sometimes makes indesign crash.

    Is there a code related reason behind it?

    Concerning

    maddy1907

    Do you use frameworks from third parties or dylib? This seems to be a problem with the installation of a framework or dylib path, that you may be using. Try running plugins in XCode and glance in gdb for all messages, you might get the idea of the cause of the failed to load.

    You can also view the dependency of your plugin using otool on the plugin executable to check all dependencies and executable paths to dependencies.

    Hope this has solved your problem.

  • "Call the executable" allows the environment variable "path"?

    Hello

    It seems that when you use the step type "call the executable" you need to enter the absolute path of the executable, or the absolute working directory, in the definition of "call settings" step.  I seem not to be able to put in a *.exe by himself in the path and have the command is found, even if I can't enter this same command on the command line (windows 7).  Is it possible to configure this step to use the windows ' path' environment variable to search for the executable?

    David J.

    You can do the following:

    (1) specify cmd.exe for the file path.

    (2) specify "/c yourexe.exe" for the argument expression

    This will launch a command window and tell it to run your application with the simple file name.

    The reason why you can't put just yourexe.exe in the path of file is that TestStand made its own resolution of file path that is different from what the window command. It uses its directories to search to resolve relative paths. If you do not have to specify an absolute path for the file path parameter, but it must be compared to a TestStand search directory or the current sequence file.

    Hope this helps,

  • 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.

  • 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!.)
