How to call another program from LabVIEW?

Hi!
Is there anyone that can answer my question? I have found a similar thread where the user needed to call labVIEW from some program but I want to do the opposite.
I made a program in labVIEW that communicates via COM-ports (serial communication) with the processor I use at the job (Ubicom´s IP2022).
Now I want to add more funcionality to this program. I want to be able to program re-program IP2022 through this LabVIEW application.
The programming is done via an Ethernet-dongle. I start a program called IP2kProg, I write the ip-address of the dongle and the program-file (.elf) downloads at this address. But how can I do this from
LabVIEW, do I need to open IP2kProg or can I send some values to it via LabViEW?
Ant suggestions?
Thanks, Amir

Amir,
There are couple of options:
1. If your IP2kProg program has a command-line interface, you can use LabVIEW's System Exec.vi and send the commands and parameters to it.
2. If the IP2kProg has an API / exported functions, you can call them from LabVIEW using the Call Library Function Node.
Hope this gives you some ideas.

This depends on the version of your Netweaver Java AS. If you are running 7.0, you will have to use the Jco framework. The Jco framework is deprecated since 7.1 though. If you want to build a RFC server in 7.1 or higher, it is adviced that you set it up through JRA.
Implement an RFC server in 7.0:

Calling another program from the current program

Hi all,
In our requirement we are calling another program from our current program .
In the current program( from which we are calling ) we are giving file name in the selection screen
and when we run the current program we are successfully going to other program but our main requirement is to higlight the file name which we had given earlier .
Note : The called program doesnt have any selection screen.

HI
use EXPORT and IMPORT key words for passing data from one program to another program.
as the called program is available in the same session you can use above key words which means you are accessing ABAP MEMORY.
You can also use SET and GET key words which means SAP memory
take F1 help there are examples tooo and detailes explanation abou the same

How to call a program from FM which acts as popup?

Hi,
I need to call a program from FM and once the program is called it needs to be opened as a popup. Maybe we need to assign size when we call from FM or do we need to give size in the program it self?
I know i can either use the Submit command or Call Transaction command. But that it self will open a full screen which i dont want. It needs to be of a smaller size.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
Try this,
REPORT ZEX_POPUPSCREEN .
*& POPUP SCREEN
* Table Declaration
TABLES VBAK.
* Start of Selection
START-OF-SELECTION.
SELECT * FROM VBAK.
WRITE / VBAK-VBELN HOTSPOT ON.
ENDSELECT.
* Display the screen

How to call WD program from a headerless WD screen

Hi Experts,
For the MSS worklist, I have created a custom WD headerless screen. In this screen, I have created one linktoURL UI element. When the user clicks on the screen, URL is called using following code. This code is working fine in Development. How I can remove the hardcoding related with https://ruepd.mycompany.com:50001. As for Quality the URL will be different say https://abcpd.mycompany.com:50001. Please help.
public static void wdDoModifyView(IPrivateAutoSettlementAppView wdThis, IPrivateAutoSettlementAppView.IContextNode wdContext, com.sap.tc.webdynpro.progmodel.api.IWDView view, boolean firstTime)
    //@@begin wdDoModifyView
    wdContext.currentContextElement().
    setUrl("https://ruepd.mycompany.com:50001/irj/portal?" +
               "NavigationTarget=ROLES%3A%2F%2Fportal_content%2Fcom.mycompany.all.folder.mycompany%2Fcom.mycompany.ep.folder.enterprise_portal%2Fcom.mycompany.portal.folder.roles%2Fcom.mycompany.portal.folder.employee_self_service%2Fcom.mycompany.portal.role.employee_self_service%2Fcom.mycompany.portal.workset.employee_self_service%2Fcom.mycompany.portal.workset.area_travel_expenses%2Fcom.mycompany.portal.page.create_expense_report&DynamicParameter=trip_number%3D"+
            (wdContext.currentContextElement().getTripNumber()).replaceAll("^0*","") +
            "%26mode%3Dcreate&TarTitle=Create%20Expense%20Report");
One alernative is to create a push button and then use the navigate absolute. However navigate absolute code does not work for headerless WD screen.
How I can convert headerless into non - headerless screen. As the screen is being called from Worklist. I does not have any control on making the screen non headerless screen.
The questions are
1) Is there is any way to keep the code as shown above and remove "https://ruepd.mycompany.com:50001" by some variable. So that we can avoid hard coding the value of https://ruepd.mycompany.com:50001
2) How to change the screen from hearless screen to non headerless screen. In this case I will use navigate absolute
3) Can we use navigate absolute in case of headerless screen. FYI - I have checked and found that I can not use it in headerless screen

Gary

How to call report program from WebDynpro Application

3. I want run the report program in web dynpro application.
Thank you
V.VENKATESH

From within the WDA Event handler you can call the program using SUBMIT ... AND RETURN. You might have to be careful with what the program does. It must run as though it is in the background. There is no connection to the client machine - so no SAPGUI calls. You might also consider the addition VIA JOB job NUMBER n... to the SUBMIT command. That will allow you to start the submitted program as a background job. Your WDA can then continue processing as the submitted job runs in parallel.

How to call VXIplugNplay driver from Labview

I downloaded a VXIplugNplay driver from Tektronics but I can't find any documentation on how to implement and use from Labview

JCM,
If it is a LabVIEW driver, the VIs should be available from the Functions palette in Instrument I/O >> Instrument Drivers. If it is not a LabVIEW driver, this KnowledgeBase describes the process of converting the driver:

How to call another action from Struts dispatch action?

Hi all,

Not sure, why are there then "chained actions" is struts practice? Struts allows action without form bean to be configured and the action is a class?

How to call ABAP programs from Excel

Hello everyone,
Currently I'm investigating the integration of Excel and ABAP program. I find it's easy to call Excel from ABAP program, but does anyone of you know how I can first open and do some actions in an Excel sheet first, and then, for example, when I press the save button, the data will be transferred back to ABAP system? I think when openning the Excel, the logon of the backend system is needed.
I've ever seen this functionality in some BW-reporting tools, but I cannot remember the details.
Thank you very much and best regards,
Leon

yes in BW we are having this concept of creating wookbooks & queries.
If u have BW server Go to Transaction RRMX - u will get a Microsoft Excel sheet.
Here it allows u to logon to the SAP system.
For details see this link.

How to call VB program from PL/SQL ?

hi, i use oracle8i and i would like to call program VB from Stored procedur or PL/SQL program.
Is it possible and how?
thanks

If you are trying to invoke a WebService, it shouldn't matter what under what platform that WebService compiled or where it is executing, as long as it is on a shared network. That is the very "definition" of a WebService. You should be able to invoke the webservice via TCP sockets, streaming XML message content.
If your VB WebService isn't, in reality, a WebService and you need to invoke it as an ActiveX dll that is possible with Oracle COM Automation. The 8i/9i data server must be running on the win32 platform that has the ActiveX dll installed. I'm not sure if there is any DCOM possibilities (though I suspect not). In all circumstances, if you data server is running on a non-win32 platform, you are out of luck.
If you are trying to invoke an ActiveX application (not a dll) from the 8i/9i data server, you are pretty much out of luck, too.
Hope that helps,
Michael
