How to make VI portable?

I need to move a large VI from my computer to another in our company.
The VI has a lot of subs that are not all in its llb. Is there a tool
put all the Vis I need into one llb or something that makes it easier?
Thanks

Open your main VI. In the menu File, you'll find "Save with options". Choose "Development distribution". The main VI and all his subvis will be put together in a LLB.
Have a nice week end.

  • How to make code portable

    Hi,
    I have a question like how can one make the following java code portable on different enviroments. What are the parts of the code that are not portable and how to rewrite the code in more portable manner.
    Here is the code.
    import java.io.IOException;
    import java.io.RandomAccessFile;
    * Some not very portable Java code. This code obtains a letter from the user
    * and gets a corresponding integer from a binary array stored in a file. The
    * value "base" is the starting position for the array in the file. The method
    * "readbyte" reads one byte from the file at a given position. This code is
    * assumed to occur within method Main of a public Java class.
    public class Portable {
         public static void main(String args[])throws IOException  {
              int letter, start, base=0, val;
              int inbuf[] = new int[50];
              byte inb;
              RandomAccessFile ra = new RandomAccessFile("abc.txt","rw");
              //DataInputStream dr = new DataInputStream(fr);
              System.out.print("Enter a letter between A and Z: ");
              letter = (int) System.in.read();
              if ((letter >= (int) 'a') && (letter <= (int) 'a' + 25)) {
                   letter = letter - 32;
              if ((letter >= (int) 'A') && (letter <= (int) 'A' + 25)) {
                   start = base + 4 * (letter - (int) 'A');
                   val = 0;
                   for (int pos = start; pos < start + 4; pos++) {
                        ra.seek(pos);
                        inb = ra.readByte();
                        val = (val << 8) + ra.readByte();
                   System.out.println("The value stored at position " + letter
                             + " is " + val);
    }Any help would be great.
    Thanx.

    I can't see any code which stores any data, but the byte order for an int can be different on different platforms, but that's more related to the format of the file.

  • How to make a triage drive of my own

    i noticed what apple stores use for triage drives. a firewire drive that powers off the port like a USB drive. And when it loads it has 10.4 and 10.5 and utilities and such. I would like to have my own, instead of lugging all the dvds around. Any suggestions? do i just make images of 10.4 and 10.5? I want it for my own machine. Anybody got some clues how to make one?
    Thanks a bunch guys

    I have a 360 GB portable external drive (I got mine from Small Dog Electronics). I partitioned it so that there was a partition large enough to hold the OS and all of my recovery/troubleshooting software (TechTools, DiskWarrior, etc...). I think my 10.4 partition was about 5-7 GB, but I used 15 for 10.5. I left the rest of the hard drive as portable storage (movies, music, photos and so on), but if you really wanted to, you could do separate partitions for different versions of the system (10.4, 10.5 and so on).
    Simply attach the external drive to your computer, boot from the OS install disk, and install to the external disk. Now boot from that external, and install your utilities. Make sure you run any updates to the utilities while booted from that drive.

  • How to make linux bootable off a usb stick on mac

    Guys i was wondering how to make linux bootable off a usb stick on mac, since i dont have a optical drive in my mac, plus i need it for university

    I have the same question, but parsed differently.  What people have tried answering here is:
         how to (make linux (bootable off a usb stick on mac))
    What I'm trying to find is:
        how to make ((linux bootable off a usb stick) on mac)
    That is, I don't want to boot from the usb stick on my mac; I want to write an ISO to a usb stick that's plugged into my Macbook Pro (Mavericks), then carry the stick to a different machine (several discarded Windows boxes in fact), plug it in there, and watch it boot on that machine.  I've done a bit of googling, but everything I find talks about making USB drives with content that can be booted on a Mac.  What I'm wondering is if it's possible to write to use my Mac to write bootable USB gadgets that work on other machines that aren't running OSX software.
    Anyone know if this is discussed anywhere?  If not, what's the right forum to ask it on?  And how do I ask it so that I don't get yet another explanation of how to make something that will boot on my Mac?
    I have several linux ISOs waiting.  Actually, I could do the job on one of several available linux boxes.  But I'd like to do it on my portable laptop, which at the moment is this Macbook Pro.

  • I was able copy the hardrive of my old macbook from "My Passport" onto the desktop on an older iMac. but i dont know how to make my hardrive and user name be the main one since someone had used it in the past and had their info on the comp. please help!

    I recently broke my 2008 macbook. i was able to use an external hardrive to back up my data onto My Passport. I was going to buy a new computer but a friend told me sher had an older version of the iMac. (not sure how old but it doesnt have a camera if that helps) i was able to hook it up and turn it on but i ran into a few problems. 1) the "authentic" user or whatever it says is someone who previously used the computer. i added me as a user but im not sure how to make me the main user. 2) after hooking up My Passport, i was able to drag my files and copy them to the desktop.(i think i did it correctly) now, i dont know how to make my hard drive and applications and iformation the "main " info. The current apps on the iMac are super old versions of iTunes and iPhoto and such. 3) while trying to open the apps from my macbook on the iMac, it said it didnt have the right software to open these apps.
    I am so computer illiterate so someone please help!!! Also, i do not have internet in my new apartment yet so if there is a way to make this happen without using the internet that would be preferred. sorry for the horrible spelling and poorly written paragraph.
    THANK YOU!!

    You are not going to be able to run your old system from the backup on this old computer as the hardware is incompatible.
    You need to get a new computer or a refurbished one.

    The above code executes well with no problem at all!
    As you can see the file to which i create and save and open my pdf report is
    AssignedDialyzer.pdf.
    The column headers of table in pdf report from c# windows forms using iTextSharp are
    "Reprocessing Date","Patient Name","Dialyzer(Manufacturer,Size)","No.of Reuse","Verification" and
    "DialyzerID".
    However the problem i am facing is after execution and opening of document is my
    column headers in table in pdf report from
    c# and datas in it all appear in bold.
    I have browsed through net regarding to solve this problem but with no success.
    What i want is my pdf report from c# should be similar to following format which i was able to accomplish in vb6,adodb with MS access using iTextSharp.:
    Given below is report which i have achieved from vb6,adodb with MS access using iTextSharp
    I know that there has to be another way to solve my problem.I have browsed many articles in net regarding exporting sql datas to above format but with no success!
    Is there is any another way to solve to my problem on exporting sql datas from c# windows forms using iTextSharp to above format given in the picture/image above?!
    If so Then Can anyone tell me what modifications must i do in my c# code given above so that my pdf report from c# windows forms using iTextSharp will look similar to image/picture(pdf report) which i was able to accomplish from
    vb6,adodb with ms access using iTextSharp?
    I have approached Sound Forge.Net for help but with no success.
    I hope anyone/someone truly understands what i am trying to ask!
    I know i have to do lot of modifications in my c# code to achieve this level of perfection but i dont know how to do it.
    Can anyone help me please! Any help/guidance in solving this problem would be greatly appreciated.
    I hope i get a reply in terms of solving this problem.

  • How to make a JPanel selectable

    When extending a JPanel and overriding the paintComponent() method the custom JPanel can not be selected so that it gets for example KeyEvents.
    But if I make the new Class extend a JButton it gets of course selected and able to receive for example KeyEvents.
    My question is therefore; what does the JButton implement that a JPanel doesn&#8217;t so that a JButton gets selectable? Or in other words; how to make a JPanel selectable?
    Aleksander.

    Try this extended code. Only the first panel added can get the Focus.
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    class Test extends JFrame

        ImagePanel imgPanel = new ImagePanel();
        panel1.setFocusable(true);

  • How to make an icon image using Photoshop

    I found out how to do this recently so I decided that I wanted to make a tut for those who don't know how to make an icon image. This icon image is for the libraries tab on your computer. Under the libararies tab there is Music, Pictures, Documents, and Photos
    First you will need the ICO (Icon image format) Format extension for photoshop which can be downloaded here:
    http://www.telegraphics.com.au/svn/icoformat/trunk/dist/README.html
    The download link and tutorial on how to install it is all in the link above.
    Once you have that all set you can now launch photoshop to create your icon image. Once you have launched it, create a new document with the size as in the image below.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/256x256_zpsbf3dcf8e.png~original[/IMG]
    Create the image you want. I used a simple one by using the custom shape tool by pressing "U" on your keyboard and with the
    basic blending options.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/IconImage_zpsd788c709.png~original[/IMG]
    The reason why the image is pixelated is because it is an icon image. Since the image is only 256x256 pixels when you zoom in on it that will get you the pixely result. The reason why I zoomed  in is so you can see it. But don't worry this is no the end result. Just continue reading and you will see.
    So once you have created the icon go ahead and press
    file>save as>(under format choose the ICO)>and choose the name that you want to name it. And save it in your C: drive. You will see why to save it in your C: drive in a sec.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/SampleicoPic_zpsd252bfba.png~original[/IMG]
    So now that you have created the icon and saved it now you can create the new library.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/NewLibrary_zps8ca703b2.png~original[/IMG]
    Name the library whatever you want I named it "Sample" for tutorial purposes. Notice how it gives you a default boring icon image for your library.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Sample1_zpsb5472840.png~original[/IMG]
    So now once you have created and named your library now it is time to get the icon image into place.
    Go to computer/c: Drive/users/YOU/ And now once you have reached this area you will need to access a hidden folder named "appdata" to do so press "Alt" then a menu bar will show. Click
    tools>folder options>and view. Find the option to view hidden folders then press apply then ok. Now we shall continue so AppData>Roaming>Microsoft>Windows>Libraries
    Now you should see all the libraries including the one you just created.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/showhiddenfolder_zpsad4a3c94.png~orig inal[/IMG]
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Libraries_zpsf6243bc0.png~original[/IMG]
    Once you have reached your destination then open a new text document with notepad and drag the library you just created in notepad. The result should look like this:
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Notepad_zps251a86f0.png~original[/IMG]
    once you have reached this point click at the end of the second to last line down then press enter and enter in this information
    <iconReference>c:\"NAME OF ICO FILE YOU CREATED IN PS".ico</iconReference>
    Example:
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/iconreference_zps1c1a3eca.png~origina l[/IMG]
    Once you have entered that information go to file>save and the icon image should appear on the library you created.
    [IMG]http://i1297.photobucket.com/albums/ag25/dusty951512/Finished_zps267f893a.png~original[/IMG]
    Now you are officially finished. Go and spread the news and joy. Bye for now

    It is Windows only because all those screen shots are exclusively Windows, the file structure and paths do not resemble those of the Mac in the least.  As a Mac user, there's nothing I could take from your tutorial.  Sorry, 
    No drives named with letters like C: on the Mac, for instance.  No backward slashes either, ever.  No such paths either.  No "Notepad" on the Mac, we use TextEdit; but such a text editor is not remotely needed on the Mac to make and/or edit icons.  Etc.
    Those folders are not even called "Libraries" on the Mac…  Nothing resembling your tutorial at all.
    The icons in the Finder's Sidebar are not customizable at all in recent version of OS X.

  • How to make text start at the top of a page in livecycle 9

    Hi, How can I get the text in a large text field to start at the top left of the field rather than at the center of the field? In addition, may one know how to make text wrap in the form as well?
    Thanks,
    David

    To set the Text alignment properties use "Paragraph" pallet you can make it visible by selecting Window>>Paragraph or Shift+F5
    And to allow text wrapping you need to select "Allow Multiple Lines" checkbox under "Object" pallet and "Field" tab. You can make Object pallet visible by selecting Window>>Object or Shift+F7.
    Good Luck,
