Build New Application (.app)

I am running LabVIEW 8.5.
I would like to be able to create programs that run on a mac as well as a PC, and this page makes it look like I can do it by just changing the extension from .exe to .app under the target file name, though every time I try and do that, it automatically changes it back to .exe
Also, when I right click Build Specifications, it says "New -> Application (exe)" so it kind of looks like the version I have can only do .exe
Is there an application builder add-on I possibly need to download and/or buy seperately?
Solved!

Well, I was trying to name the extension before I built it, not after it was compiled, but it sounds like you are saying that the PC version on LabVIEW will only make PC applications and the Mac version of LabVIEW will only make Mac applications.
Correct.
That's pretty rough, especially when I only have LabVIEW for a PC, but have a Mac laptop that is much easier to carry around the lab to test out my programs.
I'm not certain, but wouldn't creating executables in a Visual Basic, C, C+, or any other programming enviroment be the same way?

  • Error using App Builder and Application Loader

    Hello,
    we created many App's with the App Builder before and after the release of v27 we tried to update a couple of App's. So we get into the App Builder, changed the version from v26 to v27 (didn't changed anything else!!!) and rebuild the App. Now we want to use the Application Loader to upload the App to iTunes Connect, but everytime we receive this message:
    "The binary being analyzed must be an executable: /var/folders/9x/.../..._v27_distribution-viewer.zip/viewer.app/viewer"
    We rebuild the app several times, updated the App Builder but nothing works. Does anyone has an idea?
    Regards
    Sven

    Was the app updated from previous version to v27 or was created as a brand new v27 app?
    Is this same error happening for any other apps you are trying to submit?
    What is the version of application loader you are using to upload the distribution-viewer.zip?
    The latest version of application loader should be on is 2.8. If you are not, then upgrade to the latest version and try again. You can download the latest version from https://itunesconnect.apple.com/WebObjects/iTunesConnect.woa

  • With new Photos app, I can no longer drag and drop photos into other applications as I did in the past with iPhoto.

    With the new Photos app, I can no longer drag and drop photos into other applications as I did with iPhoto.  For instance, I have a photo collage app that in the past, I could just drag in the photos I wanted to include.  Now, I can DRAG the photos, but they do not DROP.  So, I have to go through the export process.  It is tedious.  What am I missing?  Where can I turn on the drag and drop feature for Photos?

    YOu're not looking in the right palce. That's inside the iPhoto Application.
    You need to look inside the iPhoto Library
    As I sid above:
    Go to your Pictures Folder and find the iPhoto Library there

  • TS2446 Hi! I tried to update a few apps from AppStore and to install new applications, but i got a message : " your Apple ID HAS BEEN disabled" !!! Please help me!!! What can i do now? How can i use my Apple ID? Please, i need help, i have this ID for 2de

    Hi everyone!
    I tried to update a few apps from my iPhone, and to install  new applications from APPSTORE. But i got a message :" Your Apple ID has been disabled"!!!!!!
    What can i do now? Can you help me please?
    The same thing happend with my IPAD....
    How can i do to function all this in the same way which was working till this problem appears.
    I want to mention that i have 2 email adresses asociated with the same Apple ID.
    wait for an feedback!
    Thanks a lot!

    Depending on why it's been disabled you might be able to re-enable it via this page : http://appleid.apple.com, then 'reset your password'
    Or you might need to contact Apple : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page
    If it then works on your computer's iTunes but not your phone/iPad then try logging out of your account on the phone/iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > Store (Settings > iTunes & App Stores on iOS 6) and then log back in and see if that 'refreshes' the account on it

    i cant download new application on my Iphone everytime i open app store then searching for the application i want to download when i Tap the FREE sign it become half square and never downloaded.

    Sometimes this happens because the app won't run on the iOS version of the device you are trying to install it to.  Go to the app store and make sure it will run on iOS 3.1.3 (many only run on iOS 4 or higher).

  • In the new mac app store how do you limit displayed applications only to os x applications.

    In the new mac app store how do you limit displayed applications only to os x applications. I do not have Iphone or ipad so all the phone junk is annoying and one cannot find the relevant software.

    The Mac App Store only has apps for Mac OS X. There are no iOS apps.
    The iOS apps for iPhones, iPods and iPads, are in the iTunes App Store.

  • Placing ini file in specific location when building the application

    Hello,
       I have a small problem.  I have an ini file that I use to store certain parameters.  Lets call this file app.ini.  When I build the Application.exe, it puts that file into the data directory.  I was hoping that it would be one level higher and be located in the same directory as Application.exe is (otherwise it won't read the file correctly.)  I looked at the Source File Settings in the Category list in the properties window for the build and set the Destination to be "Same as caller", but that didn't put it where I wanted it.  I'd really like this file to be one directory higher when I make my build in order for my app to read it correctly.  Any suggestions?
    I use this executable later on when I make my installer and the problem simply propagates there too, not good.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    One way to solve the problem:
    1) In build properties window select Destinations and create a new destination. Select as "Destination Path" the same dir where the exe will be stored
    2) Assign this destination to the .ini file.
    Let me know if it works

  • Building ADF  application Using Maven

    I have a requirement to build the Adf application using Maven.
    My JDeveloper version is 11.1.1.3 and I imported the Maven plugins.
    When I create the new Fusion application , pom.xml is getting created in model project but not in viewcontroller project. Any reason for that?
    Please help me to point to the right article and example to build Adf application using Maven?

    User,
    While you can build an ADF app using Maven, it's nowhere near easy or automated in terms of getting started. There are a few people who are doing it, but they have invested a lot of effort including:
    * loading the ADF libraries into their corporate repositories
    * re-structuring their ADF projects to match the Maven directory standard (or customizing their POMs)
    * Hand-building POMs for their ADF apps
    Most or all of the people that I know who are doing this are doing all of these things without the benefit of the Maven integration provided in JDeveloper. If you have a search of this forum and the [url https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/adf-methodology]ADF EMG, you can find plenty of discussions about this. There's no "step-by-step" guide that I know of, and it will definitely take you quite a bit of effort to get started. The Maven integration in JDeveloper is still in developer preview mode, and in my opinion, isn't ready for prime time - at least not with respect to ADF projects.

  • Error 1 when building my application in Labview 2010 Version 10.0f2

    I have searched and can find no real sollutions to this problem.  I did the updates and still nothing.  Now I can't even build an app with Laview 8.6.  I reference several .NET items and refuse to rebuild each and every one of them.  My only option at this point is to uninstall all Labview and then reinstall 8.6 so I can do something.
    Help if you can.

    Hello RBrown
    I am really sorry for this inconvenience!  This is a known issue.
    Can you please attempt the following for me:
    When you are building an application, under Advanced please check the last box "Use LabVIEW 8.x file layout"
    If that doesn't work, you may need to rebuild the LLB in a separate directory with new names, and use it as the build inclusion.
    Here are some forum posts strictly for your information:

  • Problems installing Xcode for building iPhone applications

    Just got a mac mini today for building iphone applications. I'm new to macs.
    Downloaded the iPhone SDK. Installed it. But I saw there are a lot of
    packages. Do I need to install them all? I've installed the iPhone ones.
    When I launch Xcode I get the 'Welcome to Xcode 3.1', which just looks like
    a lot of tutorials. How do I run the Xcode application to build iPhone apps?
    Cheers,
    John.

    you just install XCode and it will install ALL packages, the packages that you see are to be installed one by one for expert users or users that want to have a the newest packages.
    Remember: Install the iPhone SDK 2.2
    you just go to menu and click File > New Project > iPhone and choose the type of project for the iPhone that you want to use, WebApp, UIApp, etc ...
    because you are new to the MAC world and probably never used Objective-C in your live, it is good to start somewhere first, buy a good book of the subject, start with the language (Objective-C) them learn about the framework (Cocoa Touch) and then read all about XCode.
    In the meanwhile you can check several websites to start knowing what you going to be able to do one day, here are some examples:
    - Writing your first iPhone application (payed movies, first for free)
    - iPhone Developer Central
    - Apps Amuck
    - iPhone SDK Articles
    remember that you will need to apply to the iPhone Developer Program in order to submit your SDK Apps to the Apple AppStore.
    Updated: You can find several movies on YouTube on how to start building apps to the iPhone, but the most seams to do a bad job cause they are screen casting the entire desktop rather the area that we need, so text will be unreadable on such dimensions.

    Hi!
    Thanks very much for your reply. Precisely what I'm hoping to do is stamp annotations--to the point that I've prototyped three whole toolbars of fixtures, sensors, and wall controls with mocked up rubber stamps, and marked up several whole buildings worth of construction plans to show the concept.
    Okay--so the stamp annotation looks terrific. How do I find out more? The Acrobat 9.1 SDK (under "Plug-ins and Applications", then "Creating Annotations") says this:
    Several annotation types exist, which are identified  by their subtype. Each subtype can have additional properties that  extend the basic ones. The subtype for text annotations (also called  notes) is text. The subtype for link annotations is link. The Acrobat  core API contains two built-in annotation typedefs PDTextAnnot and PDLinkAnnot. A PDTextAnnot object corresponds to a text annotation and a PDLinkAnnot object corresponds to a link annotation.
    That paragraph (and the subsequent pages in that chapter) led me to think that my options were:
    Text annotation
    Link annotation
    3D annotation
    Dive into the Cos layer and create a custom annotation
    Where can I find documentation on the Stamp annotation? (I do have the Stamper sample application.)
    Thanks again,
    John Murdoch

  • New Application appears in Sidebar Task list, but not in main region

    Sometimes, when I create a new application, it does not appear in my primary list of Applications.
    But it is available via the sidebar Recent list.
    It is not a matter of having a 2nd page of applications but that's not it (ie, at the bottom of the list region, it shows row(s) 1-2 of 2.
    Any idea why this is happening and how to change it?
    I looked thru the Application Builder Defaults, Developer Preferences, UI Defaults etc, but I don't see any setting to implement.
    Thank you

    Good morning,
    Perhaps one of the gurus will have a better answer, but what I've found is that if you log out of the workspace and back in again, the app usually shows up. I'm not sure if its a history thing with the browser or something in APEX. But logging out and back in usually solves the problem for me.
    Don.
