How can I build an application that deploys my shared variable library?

I have a VI that I want to build into an application and put on a non-development machine. I am using a shared variable which obviously is contained in a library. In the VI itself I can deploy the library by specifying a path. Is there a way to build the application so that the library is deployed automatically when the .exe launches? I want to get away from having the end user to have to know where the library is and set the path correctly.

Hi Troy,
Sorry, but I think I missundersood you.
I think you have to deploy the library programmaticaly by using the Application Control functions (OpenAppRef, InvokeNode)
I didn't test this but the following picture shows how to start:
Kind Regards, Christian

  • How can I build an application that calls functions in a dll if the associated hardware is not present?

    I am trying to build an application that use the "Call Library Function" node to call functions in a dll.
    The dll was provided by a third-party and includes functions to drive an I2C communication board.
    The problem I have is that the dll does not not properly because the hardware is not present.
    Therefore when I load the VI a broken arrow is displayed and when I am not able to build the application.
    I will not be running the application on the PC where I build the application, therefore I want to be able to build the application on a remote PC that has not all the hardware installed. Once the application will be build it will be installed on the target PC that has all the hardware.
    How can I make the application builder to build the application event if the dll is not properly loaded? (the dll will be properly loaded on the target PC)
    I want to do this on LabView 5.1.1, any ideas?

    Some .dlls don't try to attach to the driver when loaded.
    I've worked with both and unfortuately, I've not figured out a way around this problem.
    You could possibly use the Conditional Disable structure around the dll calls so they would not be loaded unless you're in the runtime engine. But i've not tried this so I don't know for sure if it's possible.
    Anyone??

    Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.

  • How do I build an application that will run without being installed?

    I have seen some of the prior posts on trying to do this, but most of them were older, so I'll ask:
    Using 7.1, how do I build an application that will run without having to install the runtime engine? I have a client that wants to run serial port monitoring VIs to watch some custom hardware we built for him. His IT dept. won't let him install anything. If I could make this VI run off of a USB thumb drive without needing anything installed on the system it would be ideal. Space is not a problem, so I could include any runtime files needed. Can anyone tell me how to do this?
    Thanks

    Under what operating system was it running under back in the 90's when it was working?
    I think that starting with NT platforms (applies to 2000 and XP, but not 9x) the hardware abstraction layer (HAL) prevented direct I/O to serial ports. Serial port related code that ran fine on 3.x and 9x would not run under NT platforms without modification.
    Just some food for thought, do not know if it applies to your situation.
    Good Luck

  • How can I get my books that I download from the Library that are WMA files into my I tunes so I can listen to them

    How can I get my books that I download from the Library that are WMA files into my I tunes so I can listen to them. They have a ton of books but I can only listen to them from my windows media player and I wouldlove to download to my I pod but I have tried everything I can think of it they won't go over.  Someone said all I had to do was copy them over and they would convert but I can't even get them to copy.  Thanks.

    Well it started happening AGAIN with my 2nd IPod. No matter what I did, it Itunes would NOT restore it!
    I finally installed Itunes on my hubby's PC at work and managed to get it restored there.
    Apparently, there must be some sort of compatibility issue with the windows version of Itunes and some other piece of software on my pc.
    And one more important thing! I had to follow the instructions in the other thread that talks about how to correctly uninstall itunes and quicktime, in order to completely eliminate ALL traces of my "first" ipod's existence so it wouldn't demand that I restore it.
    I think the software got "confused" and thought when I connected my 2nd ipod, that it was the 1st and that it still needed to be restored.
    Basically, this is just POORLY written and POORLY tested software!

  • How can I build mobile application , connect with database and can show its working by simulator

    Dear, I want to build mobile application.
    Actually, my application has 2 parts. one is webbased application.
    Second part is mobile bases.
    instructor will take interview of the students. he will enters marks by mobile and then by using BT, it will be sent to webbased part and saved in mysql database.

    Actually, the mobile part of your question is irrelevant to the central issue of building an application that will allow:
    1.  Collecting information from a student
    2.  Entering that information into a database
    To do this, you would build a form page that allows you to input the desired information. When that form is submitted, validate the information and enter it into a database.
    Once you have this working, format the form page so that it displays well on mobile devices.
    To use this you would browse to the form page on your mobile device browser, input the information, and submit it.
    Is that what you want?

  • How can I remove an application that is under another apple id?

    Apple Support Community,
         I purchased a Macbook Pro, 13-inch, Mid 2012, running OS X 10.9 (13A603) used on Amazon. I neglected to reset the computer upon recieving so now I am stuck with somewhat of a quagmire. I don't want to reset the computer now since I have installed most of the programs I will need for my day to day functions not to mention all my media that I was able to convert from my old PC. There is an issue I am having with the App Store trying to update "Angry Birds" but it will not continue with the update because I am entering the wrong User ID for the download. Is there anyway I can just delete this application from the update area? I noticed that when I went to download Mavericks there were updates available for applications that were already installed on the Macbook so I simply deleted the previous versions on the Macbook and downloaded the recent updates under my Apple ID. I would do this for the Angry Birds application but this would require me to purchase it when I do not want this game on my computer... Does anyone have any advice to solve my situation?

  • How can I use installed applications that just keep bumping on my dock?

    Hi,
    I have an earlier 13'' 2011 Macbook Pro with Mountain Lion up to date. Everything works fine except for 2 different things:
    1st- The Apps problem:
    Well, I installed and used dropbox for a long time but someday, for no reason I can discover, it became a normal folder and the dropbox app icon was no more on my menu bar.
    I tried opening, reeinstalling, everything.Now, even having it installed, I start the app and it doesn't show up, not even the icon nor the folder, but in the activity monitor, "she's" there. How can I solve this?
    Another problem was the Skype App, that one I never came to use in this MacBook because I install it and then everytime I try to run it it simply bumps on my dock and stays bumping as long as the computer's on, so..no skype, ever (a headache I must say).
    The same happened to vlc, that bumps too (and nothing more) and flutter, that doens't open too.
    2nd- The so much talked ML battery issues that I honestly can't solve and really annoy me:
    I heard a lot about the Mountain Lion battery issues but after hearing it was solved with some upgrade I went for it.
    I must say I regret it many times because the battery life droped from 8h (7,5h wireless and one or two apps opened) to 2 hours (TWO!).
    I was in panic until I found what I thought beign the solution, some "killall" command for the terminal that removed the desktop background, which in fact made the battery return to 5,5 to 7,5 hours with wirelless on.It worked for a few days and then it came back to normal. I continued doing it very regularly to keep the battery running fine but it started making no difference, so, crappy battery life now (the curious thing is when I leave it unplugged and turned off for a night, he wakes up with the good battery life again, but one on each 3 times maybe)
    Hope you can help me!
    Kind regards

    iPhoto for iOS definitley seems to have its own idea of how to arrange the photos in an event or album. Many users are frustrated by this. Even when the photos are arranged in the correct order in the Photo app they are in a different order in iPhoto for iOS. So far there is no way to correct this. At least, after numerous posts on this forum, no one has posted a method or fix.

  • How can I get the applications that were on my old iPad on to my new iPad?

    I bought a new iPad and would like te applications from my old iPad on the new one.  Is there a way to transfer the applications from my Mac to the new iPad?

    Yes - you can sync them from iTunes - assuming that you have all of your content in iTunes on the Mac. Do this first with the old iPad.
    Transfer purchases from the iPad into iTunes on the Mac and then backup the iPad and sync one last time.
    Transfer purchases.

    How to backup and restore from a backup
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    After you have done that - activate the new iPad. You will be given the opportunity to restore from a backup during activation and that is what you want to do. Select the iTunes backup from which to restore - connect your iPad to your Mac and restore from the iPad backup and sync with iTunes.
    Your new iPad should be a clone of the old one - except you will have to enter passwords again on the new iPad. When you restore from a backup to a new device - passwords are not restored to the device.

  • How can I create an application that has no menu bar?

    I have an application which has all of its functionailty available on screen as buttons or fields. This works very well at the moment. However when I create and run the application I see a men bar appears nuch the same as when deisgning the application namely, "File, Edit, Operate, Tools,, Browse, Windows, Help". I really don't want them to appear at all as everything is already catered for on screen. I have looked at the menu vi's but it is not clear how I can simply not have a menu bar.
    Any suggestions?
    Regards
    Kevin

    Many thanks,
    I have asked a similar question to this before but for some reason I always think I need to do these sort of things programmatically in the code rather than in a settings.
    Thanks in any case.

  • How can I delete an application that is locked?

    Hello--I am working on a MacBook Pro (mid-2010), OS 10.8.5. I discovered looking through Finder that a Crash Plan app (I had tried a free couple of weeks and then asked to cancel) is still occupying 190.4 MB. During a routine virus scan, I saw in the Sophos log (which said "no threats") that Crash Plan seemed to have attempted to activate numerous times; but when I tried to delete it by first unchecking the "locked" box on the Info pane, the check immediately returned every time. Can anyone tell me how I can successfully and permanently trash this? Thank you!

  • How can I build a LabView application that uses the 2012 runtime, on a development system with LabView 2013 or 2014 installed?

    I need to build a LabView application .exe to run with the 2012 Runtime, for legacy support. I currently have LabView 2013 installed on my development system, and have 2014 available. How can I build an application that uses the 2012 runtime on this development system? Do I have to downgrade to 2012? Thank you.

    We have existing customers that have installed our application that was originally built with 2012 (provided by a contractor that is no longer available).  Due to IT regulations, it is far easier to update these customers by simply replacing the .exe file, than creating an install that their IT department must run.
    If I have to downgrade to LabView 2012, where can I get the installation for this?

  • How can i build RPMs file for my own Java Application?

    How can i build RPMs file for my own Java Application?....I have my own directory that contains all Java Source files and some files that my Application required....I want to build RPMs file like a install File to Linux System, Now my OS is Linux Fedora core 1.....How can i do this?

    I think that in order to create a RPM, you'd need to
    use some C.Nope - the RPM is all about packaging and the "magic" x.spec file. You can have anything you want in the RPM, but you have to use RPM tools to build the .rpm file. One of the features is that you can also indicate (via "install" scripts) modifications to other files or the filesystem to support the installation of whatever's in the RPM.
