How do i install labview application on linux?

Hello,
I have a small application that i built using Labview 7.1 for windows. I have been using this application on windows xp.
All the application does is, get an array of numbers from a file, calculate the min, max and average, and display the result in a simple 2D graph.
Now i'm in the process of switching OS from xp to Redhat Linux. Would i be able to use this same application in Linux without any modification? if so, how do i install the application on Linux? if not possible, what changes do i need to make to get it work on Linux?
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks.

The platform indepedence is in the way the LV code is represented. You can open a VI you wrote in LV on windows in LV for Linux or Mac and it will work. The compiler embedded in the development environment turns the VI into platform-specific executable code in the same way that a C compiler would. The problem is that actual executable code is not transferable between OSes because they simply won't know how to execute it, just as it wouldn't work with a C built application.
If you don't want to buy LV for Linux you can try running a Windows emulator (like WINE) which might allow you to run your windows executable. Another option is to try contacting NI. They might decide to let you change your license from Windows to Linux. You should also consider that platform specific functions (like ActiveX) are not supported and that certain toolkits were only written for windows.
Try to take over the world!

  • How can i install labview in a AMD64Linux machine?

    Hello:
    I'm a linux user, I have Debian installed and maybe changing for Suse or Mandrake due to the NI's preference on those two OS. But I have only one question: is it possible to install LabVIEW in a linux that's native AMD64, this means, that if there's a 64-bit Linux Version of LabVIEW?
    Thanks for reading this.

    Hi panthell, your concerns have solid bases. If you want to Learn LabVIEW and get full functionality, I will suggest using Windows. But if you want to use Linux you will find less trouble with the  32 bit OS.
      The 32 bit Suse can work with 64bits as if there were 32. So it could work, but you won’t have all the functionality or will have to deal with more small problems.  Also there is a version of 64 bits of Suse, it has some compatibility mode to run programs as 32 bits systems. Using this final option you may have the core functionalities running but might have trouble with NI drivers. Still using Linux 64 bit will have some of the limits the Linux and the 64bits.

     LabVIEW as it works on a Runtime can be used in many platforms the officially supported are the ones that we had made tests and are confident they will work

    Dear all:

    thanks ,,

    Without RAC, you can only have one instance manage the database. One instance = one set of processes communicating via IPC.
    Unless you know of a way to have processes use memory-based IPC across nodes, you need to pick a node and install & run the database software on that node.

  • How do I install LabVIEW 6.0 over the evaluation version? I can't un-install the evaluation version.

    I get the message that another version of LabVIEW 6.0 is already installed and it won't let me install 6.0. How do I get rid of the evaluation version?

    I don't have LabVIEW in my Add/Remove Programs. I may have at one time, but
    can't remember. The removal must have been incomplete becasue LabVIEW 6.0
    says "Another version of this produce is already installed." The same thing
    happens if I try to reinstall the evaluation version.

    If it's not available in the store in which you have your account, you're pretty much out of luck. In order to purchase from the U.S. iTunes Store you need a)a valid billing address in the U.S., b) a credit/debit card billed to that address or an iTunes prepaid card purchased in the U.S. and c) to be physically located in the U.S. at the time of purchase.

  • How can I install labVIEW to another path?

    Greetings,
    I am trying to install labVIEW 8.2.1 for our R.H. Linux labs campus wide.
    I am able to install the software onto a single machine.
    And in the installation script it outputs:
    NOTE: LabVIEW will install by default in /usr/local/natinst/LabVIEW-8.2,
    or in the natinst/LabVIEW-8.2 subdirectory if you specify an alternate location.
    But it doesn't say how to specify an alternate location.
    I need to install labVIEW into:
    /afs/bp.ncsu.edu/dist/labview821/
    which is a network filesystem we have here. Most of our commercial apps are installed this way. Your app is the first
    commercial app I've had to install that uses RPM instead of a tarball.
    I can't install the RPMs on every machine on campus because we only have root access
    to a small subset of these machines. In the past we've been able to install apps into
    AFS space and have anyone on campus be able to access the application.
    (By adding each apps bin/ in the network directory to the search $PATH)
    So I want to put labview in
    /afs/bp.ncsu.edu/dist/labview821/bin/labview
    instead of
    /usr/local/bin/labview
    Will this be possible with labview? Or will labview only work if installed on a local hard disk drive?
    Thanks,

    Greetings,
    We have a site license for the college of engineering.
    I was never prompted for any licensing info for the Linux version. (Durring install or running the labview
    app post install on my test machine) I know some of our employees set up a LabVIEW license server. I know its IP address...
    (152.1.68.81)
    How do we specify that the Linux installed software should use that? Is it done via an environmental variable? Or does only
    the windows version of the software use the license server? The Linux version appeard to have no copy protection? I never was prompted for
    serial numbers or anything...
    I also tried using the
     ./INSTALL --no-rpm
    command line option to install the app but it failed to give me a way to specify a new install location. In fact, it seemed
    to still use rpm for its install.
    I looked at the readme.html docs on the install CD and it refered to a pdf that you can only read
    after installing the program. (To learn how to install the software you first have to install the software)
    This document was called: "LabVIEW release notes."
    ON page 8 of "LabVIEW release notes" it says:
    LINUX:
    Complete the following steps to install LabVIEW for Linux.
    1. Log into the system as root.
    2. Insert the LabVIEW 8.2 installation CD. Uswe mount /mnt/cdrom to
       mount the CD. On some systems, the CD mounts automatically.
    3. To change the current directoty to the mounted CD, enter the
       following command:
       cd /mnt/cdrom
    4. To run the installation script, enter the following command:
    sh ./INSTALL
    5. (Optional) Install LabVIEW add-ons. Refer to the Installing LabVIEW
       Add-Ons section of this document for more information.
    6. (Optional) Install and configure National Instruments hardware. Refer
       to the INstalling and Configuring Hardware section of this document for
       more information.
    7. Refer to the Where to go from here section of this document for more
       informationabout getting started with and using labVIEW.
    The INSTALL script prompts you to enter the directory where you want to
    install LabVIEW, which is typically /usr/local.
    But the install scipt never prompts you like it says it would in the release notes.
    Maybe it did that in version 8.2 and doesn't in 8.2.1? (And they just forgot to update
    the documentation or its just wrong?)
    If rpm is the only supported option for installing the Linux version and if it can't
    be relocated than we can tell the departments paying for the site license that
    they will have to run the program only on our 200 or so Linux lab machines. Not their
    Linux machines hooked up to whatever instruments they plan to interface with this
    software.
    But before I tell them that I'd like to hear someone tell me that what I'm trying to do
    is impossible. (Install LabVIEW on a network directory) I  am having a hard time
    finding any further installation documentation for the Linux version on the ni website.
    And the documentation I've read from within the program in the form of the Release Notes
    seems to have errors.
    Many thanks for any ideas anyone has.

  • How can I install an Application on one of my other Hard Drives?

    I would like to know how I can install Applications on one of my other hard drives. I find that when I go to install an Application, the main hard drive shows up allowing me to install it. The other hard drives show as unable to install Application. What am I missing? Thanks.

    A system is what is missing as the installer looks for a valid folder, and may need to install support files in /Library as well.

  • How do I uninstall labview application with no uninstall program

    I have built an application and selected to not have an "uninstall" application in the various 5.1 app builder options. I did not think this would be a problem since I thought the application would show up in my add/remove programs and could be removed from there. However, it seems that if no uninstall program is selected then the application also does not appear in the add/remove section of control panel. Do I just delete the directory of the application? Are there any registry settings to worry about. I have seen this on Win 2K and Win 98. I have not tried others.

    There are registry settings when you install the application builder, and probably an association is made in the registry to open your application and have it spawn the runtime engine of the correct version. However, as the Windows Registry is the most obsolete piece of software junk on the planet, and so chock full of mysteries, incosistencies, and well, a whole list of things that I could complain about, I cannot say for certain what registry settings are added/changed when you do an installation.
    I will make this suggestion. Just delete the folder, and also, you will need to delete the "my application".ini file in the root directory, or wherever your application is located (which could be taken care of when you delete the folder, but who knows.)
    On
    ce you have deleted the folder, any remaining registry settings left over will be added to the rather large list of leftover registry entries from other applications that are unistalled/deleted. The truth of the matter is that I have NEVER seen an application completely remove all of itself, or its registry entries. I don't even know if uninstallation removes ANY registry entries.
    If we are all lucky, someone at Microsoft will take a hint and get rid of the registry. Maybe then we can have flash resident operating systems. Until then, I'll stick with Linux, thank you....

  • How to re install my applications?

    I have an i pod touch 8GB. Some days ago, i had formatted my windows XP. I didnt sync any of my ipod applications didn't make its backup on ipod. But I copy the applications from my documents>itunes>mobile applications to another location. After formatting, i Again install itunes and paste the applications into the folder itunes>mobile applications>. But now itunes cannot display any of the applications. I had buy all of them. How can i re install my applications to my ipod? Please help me.

    Yuvraj,
    I realize that this is a late rely, but on my Mac, when I double clicked the application in my Mobile Applications folder it would show up in the applications section of iTunes. I do not have yet own an iPod Touch, but have downloaded and purchased some apps for the time when the iPod Touch reaches a price point and capacity that I desire. Hopefully you or someone else will respond with whether or not this works.

  • Installer instal labview application as window service

    Dear NI
    I want to make an installer which installs labview application as windows service.
    Currently i am using third party tool to do this. Is it possible with labview application builder.
    regards

    It should be possible also with installer builder. You should automate described steps (put some entries into the registry and call executable from MS ResKit). Resourse kit should be deployed with same installer (not sure if there "silent" install possible, otherwise read ResKit documentation and license agreement). Alternatively you can build installer with third party tool - in this case you will have more "freedom". In the past I have done this with Inno Setup - works without problems.
