Is it possible to read data from MATLAB *.mat file using LabVIEW?

I have *.mat file from Matlab with some data. Does anybody know how to extract them from this file. I need to know the file format.

The Mathworks site is pretty good about having documentation for the formats of their file types. I recommend looking there for the format.

It's not possible to read from a file without using classes from the core API*. You'll have to get clarification from your instructor as to which classes are and are not allowed.

Is it possible to overwirte data in a *.pdf file using LabVIEW??

hi,
i have a requirement to overwrite a pdf file using LabVIEW, i have to use coloring text also.
i have downloaded Exaprom PDF 1.0 toolkit. but it is to generate a new pdf file.
please suggest ideas

Modifying an existing PDF file is several magnitues more complicated than creating one from scratch. The PDF standard is VERY complicated and contains a myriad of features with their specific syntax elements. In order to modify an existing PDF you have to be able to understand every syntax element that occures in the PDF, or you may end up corrupting the file.
When you create a new PDF you can pick out the syntax elements that your tool supports and forget about the 95 other procent.
There are many PDF Toolkits than can create PDF files, a few that can open PDF files and present them, and almost none that can edit them. The Adobe PDF Editor being one of the few that can do that, but nobody is going to give away such a Toolkit for free.

How to implement reading data from a mat file on a cRIO?

Hi all!
I am not even sure, this is plausible, but I'd rather ask before i start complicating. So far, I have not found any helpful info about reading in data to a RT device from a file (kind of a simulation test - the data is simulated).
I have the MatLab plugin that allows the data storage read a MAT file, which has a number of colums representing different signals and lines representing the samples at a given time (based on the sample time - each sample time has it's own line of signal data).
I have no idea of how to implement this to cRIO.
The idea is:
I have some algorithms that run on the RIO controller in a timed loop. As the inputs to these algorithms, i would need to acces each of the columns values in the line, that corresponds to the sample time (kind of a time series - without the actual times written).
I am fairly new to RT and LV development, so any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Luka
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi Luka!
MAT file support in LabVIEW is handled by DataPlugins. Here you can find the MATLAb plugin:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/4178
And here you can find information on how to use DataPlugins to read or write files of a certain format:
http://www.ni.com/white-paper/11951/en
There is also an open-source project that addresses the problem, you can find it at
http://matio-labview.sourceforge.net/
Unfortunately, RT systems are not supported by DataPlugins, so fist you'll have to write a VI on the Host computer to convert your files to a usable format (I suggest TMDS for compactness and ease of use), and the work on the converted files in the cRIO VI. If you have other questions about DataPlugins or anything else, please get back to me.

View Object to read data from a java file

Hi,
I am using JDeveloper 11.1.1.4 and ADF-BC in my application.
For one of my view objects , I want the data to be read from a java file which exposes some method to return a collection.
I cannot use a static view object in this case.
Please suggest the best way to implement this requirement.Basically build a view object that should read data from a java file.
Thanks,
Praveen

Depending on your use case you can either use a programmatic VO or directly expose the JV class as a data control.

Read data from a text file, one line at a time.

I need to read data from a text file, and display each line in a String Indicator on Front Panel. It displays each line, but I get Error 4, End Of Line, unless I enter an extra line of data in the file that I don't need. I tried Read From Text File.vi, made by Nat Instr, and it gave the same error.

The Read from Text File.vi reads data from a text file line by line until the user stops the VI manually with the Stop button on the front panel, or until an error (such as "Error 4, End of file") occurs. If an error occurs, the Simple Error Handler.vi pops up a dialog that tells you which error occurred.
The Read from Text File.vi uses a while loop, but if you knew how many lines you wanted to read, you could replace the while loop with a for loop set to read that many lines from the file.
If you need something more dynamic because the number of lines in your files vary, then you could change the code of the Read from Text File.vi to the expect "Error 4, End of file" and handle it appropriately. This would require unbundling the error cluster that comes fro
m the Read File function with the Unbundle By Name function, so that you can expose the individual error "status" and error "code" values stored in the cluster. If the value of the error "code" is 4, then you can change the error "status" from true to false, and you can rebundle the cluster with the Bundle by Name function. Setting the error "status" to false instructs the Simple Error Handler to ignore the error. Otherwise, pass the original error cluster to the Simple Error Handler.vi, so that you can see what the error is.
Of course, if you're not interested in what the errors are, you could just remove the Simple Error Handler.vi, but then you wouldn't see any error messages.
Best of Luck,

How to read a tab seperated data from a text file using utl_file

It is then up to you to split that string up (search for split string on this forum for methods) into it's individual components.
If the text file contains a standard structure on each line, i.e. it is a fixed delimited structure, then you could use external tables to read the data instead.

You might want to look at the POI project (an open source Jakarta sub-project) that allows you to create/modify/read excel files via Java code. That might be more flexible and easier than what you're currently trying to do.
