What is the right way to specify the location of the shared library in an a .lvlib function call library function node?

I'll have a bit of a problem with how to specify the location of library shared in a call library function node it is a VI that is part of a library of LV. Here's a little background which may help.

I do a lot of measures using spectrometers photo from several manufacturers.  Someone in my company developed a C DLL library, which provides a simple API for all the different spectrometers. To facilitate this DLL to use in LabVIEW, I wrote a .lvlib that wraps all the functions.  When I want to use the API, I simply include the .lvlib file in my project that allows me to drag and drop the wrapper s VI on my block diagram. When I created the .lvlib of VI, I specified the path in the call library node. /. * so it will always look in the local application to the DLL directory when I run.

The problem is, when I load demand, LabVIEW you asks for the location of the DLL even if it's just there in the local directory! I tried to put copies of the DLL in the directory with the .lvlib, but he still refuses to find the DLL loading.  What I am doing wrong?

You should in this simple case enter the full path to the DLL by navigating to it. If the DLL is on the same volume/drive that the VI containing the call library node LabVIEW will be internally store the relative path from the VI to the DLL (but still show the absolute path). If you move the DLL and screw together (so the relative location of the DLL to the VI remains the same) LabVIEW will always find the DLL.

I don't think that the lvlib would add nothing to that.

  • How to create the shared library for linux real-time target in labVIEW Windows?

    I use myRIO running linux in real time. In my project, I need to pack some C code, so I tried the node library function call.

    I know that I should use the tools compile cross - compile linux on Eclipse to compile c code in linux .so library. But the problem is that call library function node does not recognize the .so file because my labVIEW runs on a Windows PC.

    What should I do to fix and how to combine C code with labVIEW during programming for devices shipped as myRIO?

    Basically, you must also create a Windows DLL that exports the same functions. These functions can be empty stubs if you do not want to run the code correctly on Windows, otherwise you will need to consider how to implement the equivalent functionality on the Windows API.

    Then you can write in your node library call as the name of the library ". "*" and the name of the shared library Windows ".dll" while the Linux version is called "name of your library > .so". LabVIEW will replace the * after the comma in the name of library with everything that is the preferred extension shared library for the platform it is running on and therefore load the right shared library.

    Alternatively you can wrap call all the nodes of the library in a structure that contains the node library in the case of Linux RT and all what you want to run on other platforms in the case of default or a case of specific platform, call the conditional compilation.

  • Unable to load the shared library LVASPT_WA.*

    Hello

    I have a hope that easy to fix the error: I want to use the function "WA Detrend' to the signal processing tool advanced in a real-time application running on a cRio 9030. When I try to run the VI I get the following error:

    Can you telll me what I am doing wrong?

    Thank you very much in advance!

    I ran your situation in R & D, and the problem seems to be as a result of Advanced Signal Processing Toolkit is not not compatible on the x 64 under Linux RT OS in the 9030.  The product page could be clearer on this gap.  I am currently a web application to get this fixed!

  • How to include the shared library of BlackBerry in a native extension WebWorks

    I developed a native extension WebWorks that works very well on Simulator and devices when included in a webworks app.

    I also have a sample of waterfalls project with the same code base that I use to test the WebWorks extension code.

    Since a large part of the code is reusable, I decided to create a shared library of BlackBerry, so I can reuse in other projects. When I include the NEW shared library in the waterfalls and then everything works well, as before.

    When I include it in the extension WebWorks it draws very well. The .so file size was much smaller and that worried me (I suspected that the shared library was not included in there). But since its construction very well I went trying to run my application webworks. When it came to hitting the extension I got a ' need of error. Cannot find the library of blah/blah/...so'.

    I had this before and found out that it was because the dependent QT libraries have not been correctly referenced. It so that the shared library is not properly referenced/copied /-thing... This event is supported? For example, by using a custom in a WebWorks extension shared library?

    It worked

    Version 2 is almost right

    In the library paths pane Add...

    ${workspace_loc: / / extlibs/device$ {ProjName}}

    for peripheral and do Simulator

    ${workspace_loc: / / extlibs/Simulator of ${ProjName}}

    Always with libname in libraries

    I just linked to unrar successfully like this library

  • Deploy the shared library in WebLogic by EPCO

    Hello

    I'm deploying in WebLogic 10.0 an EAR file as a shared library.

    I am able to deploy using the server administration Console, but if I deploy the EAR by EPCO, the EAR is always deployed as an Application.

    Is it possible to deploy with EPCO as shared library? I declare the EAR as a shared library in any file descriptor before?

    Thank you
    Carles.

    If you save your shared library of the EAR in the preferences under WebLogic-> shared libraries then refer to this library in an application, EPCO will deploy the shared library when the listing application is deployed.

  • What is the difference between using Global or an initiative called when you configure custom or user-defined fields?

    What is the difference between using global or initiative when setting custom fields?
    If you have or are never going to have multiple initiatives, him setting the Global causes all initiatives for this area.  If you start by choosing the initiative or initiatives that you want to use this area (the recommended way to go), you have choices later if you add another initiative.  I always go to the initiative, and then it can be added to the new initiative that I wanted.
  • What is the MacintoshHD/library/server/ServerDocs/Data folder used for?

    I use the latest version of the server software OS X on a Mac Mini with a 256 GB SSD.  I keep running out of space. The MacintoshHD/library/server/ServerDocs/Data folder seems to be where the files are placed which occupy all the storage space.  This single file is close to 140 GB. He seems to have a copy of all my files into it.

    What is the folder?

    Can I move it to an external hard drive, if yes how?

    Do I have to have the folder for the server software to work?

    This is a (known) bug in the server application. The workaround, assuming that you have no need of smb shares, is to disable smb on the file share points that you enabled.

    If you have need of smb shares, I'm afraid you can be out of luck. You can remove the data, but it will (probably) come back... He did it for me.

  • tables as input for the shared library function

    I played with the call of LV VI using matlab.

    So I built a simple VI which returns an integer as input and multiply it by 10, I then put in a shared library and named it MATLAB - well.

    Now, I tried to do the same thing with a table - I want to send a picture to the VI and multiplied it by 10, but when I build the .h file, it seems that the function expects get table of entry AND exit of table as inputs.

    so, how I can build a shared library VI who gets an array (of a constant size if this is important) and multiply it by 10?

    Thank you!

    A function in a DLL can only return a scalar value, not a table, no matter what languages are used. To return an array, instead calling it allocates the array pass a reference to the DLL and then after the function called the referenced table table contains the new data. This is why there are two parameters - the input array (actually a pointer to it) and a pointer (reference) to the output array. You must change your code in MATLAB, there is nothing you can do about it in LabVIEW. EDIT: Also note that it allows to re-use of the input as an output table, optionally passing a reference only to the table of entry and then by changing that. You can do it in LabVIEW by configuring the setting table as input and output.

    Well, you can always flatten it into a single string separated by a space and pass like that. Reverse basically what made the operating system, when he calls your main function with command line parameters. And while the first element of the array is always the name of the program itself you can just ignore that here, but then put shaped everything in a single string.

  • Native extension using the shared library

    Hello

    IAM trying to create an extension which will be used in cordova, well the work of foundations... but what I have to do is add a shared library from another company for my project.

    They have a folder with all the files of all and a .so file, how can I add to my project and use it in the extension?

    Thank you.

    You start with the model BB10-Cordova?

    https://github.com/BlackBerry/WebWorks-community-APIs/tree/master/BB10-Cordova/template

    You should be able to add the library to the project using the Add Library Wizard in project-> generation properties C / C++-> the settings-> the tool parameters
