Labview support for ISO 8859-5

HI,
does Labview support ISO 8859-5 character sets?
If yes, then how do i change the default character set in Labview from ASCII to ISO 8859-5?
If no, then which is the simplest way to display russian characters in Labview 6.1 (Labview 6.1 on SuSE LINUX)
Thanks and Regards,
Pavitra

Hi Pavitra,
There is a very easy way to do that in Windows. Start>Settings>Regional and Language Options. Make sure Russian is included as an input language language on the language tab, as well as on the advanced tab where you can specify the language for non-unicode programs.
I have attached a screenshot that demonstrates cyrillic fonts in LabVIEW. The example is done with Bulgarian font, but it should work the same way with Russian. As you can see I have also specified Arial CYR as my font for the front panel and the block diagram.
Try to use the same logic for a Linux system.
Hope that helps!

Sun Java System Messaging Server doesn't support some ISO 8859 charsets

Hello,
I couldn't find any link to report bugs on the Sun Java System Messaging Server, so i guess i'll report it here:
Sun Java System Messaging Server currently doesn't support the ISO 8859-13 charset, which is the standard charset in the Baltic states. When a person recieves an email in that charset, every non-ASCII character in the message becomes absolutely unreadable when displayed in this webmail application.
This has been tested with this version of the product:
X-Mailer: Sun Java(tm) System Messenger Express 6.1 HotFix 0.01 (built Jun 24 2004)
Furthermore, you can test the case by yourself using this link: http://www.lietuvybe.org/testas/. You can enter your e-mail address there to get a few sample messages in Baltic and Cyrillic charsets. You will see that the Sun Java System Messaging Server passes all those tests except this particular one. So, it's a very nice product. :)
It would be very very very cool if Sun would fix this small, but very important issue.
regards,
Rimas Kudelis

Hey! :)
I am feeling some bad vibes, here.Hey, sorry, I didn't want you to think it's personal. I didn't really mean to hurt you or whatever. You are trying to help and I do appreciate that. I really do.
The reason i'm a bit sad is about the policy of others:
First, i am not a provider of that webmail service i'm talking about. A big Lithuanian company is. Personally, I rarely use webmail apps at all, and even when i do, i use an app i internationalized myself. :). Meanwhile, i install Horde IMP as a webmail application for my small servers, and i'm satisfied with it.
The problem i described is literally not my problem. It's a problem of that big Lithuanian company mentioned above (and the users of its webmail system). I suppose this company does have that account already and, furthermore, they are the ones who should post to this forum or file a support request., and they are the ones who should be worried about that bug. However, reality differs. In reality, big companies in Lithuania don't care about correctness of their webmail apps too much. However, there are a few maniacs like me who do. We test their webmail apps, we contact them and describe them their problems and ask them to fix those problems. Sometimes, they do that, but in most cases we either don't get a reply at all, or we get something like "we'll take a look at it later". For example, lately, we had an issue with one of the most popular webmail providers in Lithuania skipping a MIME-version header. Fixing this issue is just a single line of code. However, we had to push them annoyingly for kinda few months until they finally fixed it.
That was the first aspect.
The second is that i don't really like to create hundreds of accounts for myself just to ocasionally report bugs like this one. If only Sun would let me to simply file a bug, and forget that, i would gladly do it. But no, i have to find a deeply hiden support page, then fill a form, create myself an account and a password, then log on, then fill some misterious support request... Do I have to do that for a company that won't even consider thanking me? I think that's too much. Furthermore, every party on the net enforces it's own username and password restrictions. That sucks too. I wish i could just log on as "rq" everywhere like this forum, using the same password i could easily remember. However, i have to use "rq", "er-ku" or "erku" or "rq@something" as my username on different platforms, and sometimes even my (long enough) password is not accepted. It's hard to track such accounts, and in most cases like this one, i don't really want to have an account at all, as i'm just passing by.
To summarize the post: I'm NOT a licenced user, and all I wanted was to file a bug, which affects licenced users and ordinary people.
How do i remove my account from this forum now? :)

XMLReader throws "Invalid UTF8 encoding." - Need parser for ISO-8859-1 chrs

Hi,
We are facing an issue when we try to send data which is encoded in "ISO-8859-1" charset (german chars) via the EMDClient (agent), which tries to parse it using the oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLParser . The parser, while trying to read it, is unable to determine the charset encoding of our data and assumes that the encoding is "UTF-8", and when it tries to read it, throws the :
"java.io.UTFDataFormatException: Invalid UTF8 encoding." exception.
I looked at the XMLReader's code and found that it tries to read the first 4 bytes (Byte Order Mark - BOM) to determine the encoding. It is probably expecting us to send the data where the first line is probably:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso88591" ?>
But, the data that our application sends is typically as below:
========================================================
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: /ade/vivsharm_emsa2/oracle/work/listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = semsa2)
(ORACLE_HOME = /ade/vivsharm_emsa2/oracle)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST = stadm18.us.oracle.com)(PORT = 15100))
========================================================
the first 4 bytes in our case will be, int[] {35, 32, 108, 105} == chars {#, SPACE, l, i},
which does not match any of the encodings predefined in oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLReader.pushXMLReader() method.
How do we ensure that the parser identifies the encoding properly and instantiates the correct parser for "ISO-8859-1"...
Should we just add the line <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso88591" ?> at the beginning of our data?
We have tried constructing the inputstream (ByteArrayInputStream) by using String.getBytes("ISO-8859-1") and passing that to the parser, but that does not seem to work.
Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards,
Vivek.

Your message is not XML. I believe that the XMLParser is going to have problems with that as well. Perhaps you could wrap the message in an XML tag set and begin the document as you suggested with <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso88591"?>.
You are correct in that the parser uses only the first 4 bytes to detect the encoding of the document. It can only determine if the document in ASCII or EPCDIC based. If it is ASCII it can detect only between UTF-8 and UTF-16. It will need the encoding attribute to recognize the ISO-8859-1 encoding.
hope this helps

OWB support for ISO Week number?

Is there any way to get the Time dimension wizard to support the ISO standard for Year and Week numbering (formats IYYYY and IW)?
I need to set up a time dimension for our data warehouse and our company uses the ISO Year/Week numbering schemes (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601) if you don't know what these are.
Failing that I can try to create my own but it looks like a tedious process calculating all of the durations, start and end-dates.
Any guidance would be appreciated!

hi,
thanks - i did check the docs :)
the problem is that Calendar's idea of what the first week in the year is differs from the ISO standard
the problem is that the ISO standard defines the first week of the year as that containing the first Thursday (ie some days may become part of the previous year's weeks)
and Calendar defines it as the docs state - so to change the value returned would mean you having to change the "FirstDayOfWeek" or the "MinimalDaysInFirstWeek" - which (without checking recently) I think the ISO standard also defines so you can't safely change these
I might raise a RFE against Calendar about this in a week or two since it seems quite important?
thanks,
asjf

UCS support for ISO install LMS 4.1

Hi,
can we install the ISO LMS 4.1 directly on a UCS platform?
What platform UCS is supported?
Do you have install experiences you can share?
Is the ISO LMS 4.1 a Linux implementation?
kind regards
Ad

I installed it onto of Windows 2006 R2 on a UCS C200 M2.
You can turn anything into an iso, it just a format of how things are writen on a disk. That's why you can mount and iso file as a disk.
The linux version comes as an ".ova " virtual appliance you can load into a VMware host.
I think the machine could probably run an ESX server and run 2 or 3 LMS servers depending on the number of devices to manage.
For performance reasons buying a bigger box won't help. I've installed LMS on pretty heavy systems and GUI performance remains bad.
I think the problem is with the tomcat part of things. That process is responsable for the web gui. AFAIK Cisco provides no guidance on this.
Cisco says performance will be better in the next version as usual.
Cheers,
Michel

LabVIEW Support for Innovation Integration X5-210M

I was wondering if anyone here is using Innovation Integration X5-210M module: http://www.innovative-dsp.com/products.php?product=X5-210M
and was able to interface the acquired data with LabVIEW.
Their support is only in the form of C++ libraries and an example program. They also suggest, in a very general way, how to create a DLL for LabVIEW: http://www.iidsp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=549
I am having a hard time trying to put it together. If anyone has found a solution, I appreciate it if you guide me in the right direction. Please be specific.
Thanks.

Ghulam-
Take a look at this link:
http://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-2028 this is an example on running a C DLL in LV but the architecture should be very similar to making a C++ version. Let me know if this helps! Happy Presidents Day!!

Nerving Problem with UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1

Hi,
I´m looking for a solution to serve this problem for many hours now, maybe someone can help me:
1.) We need to send our Mails with the ISO-8859-1-Charset because otherwise Windows-Users get the text in the message twice: once as plain, and after a question mark formated. So I changed the NSPreferredMailCharset in the com.apple.mail.plist to ISO-8859-1:
defaults write com.apple.mail NSPreferredMailCharset "ISO-8859-1"
2.) So far so good. It works until I add an attachment to a message. Adding an attachment forces the sending of the mail again as Unicode (UTF-8). I could change the encoding manual, but thats not the way we can work in our company.
My question is: is there any way to force mail to encode as ISO-8859-1? It can´t be that we have to change the encoding for every message.
Thanks a lot
florian
PS: I´m not sure if this is important: we use the osx in German.

I was thinking that since he is from Austria & references a company, there is a very strong possibility that the character "€" (the Euro currency symbol, Unicode 20AC, UTF-8 E2 82 AC) would frequently appear in messages.
Even if he sets a preference for ISO-8859-1 as the default with Terminal, or manually changes messages to ISO-8859-1, it would not be possible to include this symbol in such messages, since there is no "€" in ISO-8859-1.
Similar problems would occur with other symbols sometimes used in business (for example "™"), in engineering ("Ω"), in mathematics ("∑"), or even with some general punctuation marks such as the dagger ("†").
Other possible problems are the use of other currency symbols the Euro replaced (the franc's "₣" or the lira's "₤") or others still in use (the Israeli new sheqel's "₪ or rupee's "₨"). Ligatures in an international environment would really complicate things as well, as this Wikipedia article about the Œthel illustrates.
Note that in none of these cases would the presence or absence of an attachment matter -- ISO-8859-1 simply isn't up to the task.
I suspect that in some cases, if it is possible, setting the default to Windows-1252 (Windows Latin 1 in Mail's list?) would help, since it does include at least the Euro & dagger. I haven't played around with this much, but I do note that in a new message window containing "€" in the body, if I set the text encoding to Windows Latin 1, Automatic, or UTF-8, Mail doesn't complain, but if I set it to ISO Latin 1, I get an error saying the message can't be saved & an "Invalid Text Encoding" alert if I try to send it.
As for how messages are received at the other end, Windows apps (not just Outlook) are notorious for continuing to use non-Unicode API's even after the OS itself has long since moved to Unicode as its internal standard. Some of them employ bass-ackwards fixes like deciding ISO-8859-1 declarations are supposed to be Windows-1252 ones. Worse, Windows itself sometimes seems to interpret a few Windows-1252 code positions as their ISO-8859-1 control equivalents!
All this makes life that much more complicated for people trying to avoid problems like the above.

ISO-2022-JP support and ISO-2022-JP-2 escape sequences

I have a mail generated by Outook with some Japanese text in. Outlook has set the charset as ISO-2022-JP. The ISO-2022-JP encoded text of the mail can be found here.
Java 1.5 and 1.6 fail to load this text properly when using the ISO-2022-JP charset. The description of this charset is JIS X 0201, 0208, in ISO 2022 form, Japanese. I'm guessing that the problem is due to the use of an escape sequence that is defined in [ISO-2022-JP-2|http://www.mhonarc.jp/RFC/rfc1554.txt]. The escape sequence is hex 1B 24 42, which means that the charset is JIS X 0208-1983.
There's no ISO-2022-JP-2 charset support in Java 1.5, not sure about 1.6.
I'm thinking about writing a filter reader as a hack to add support for ISO-2022-JP-2. I guess that if I remove the escape sequence, the text should load properly using one of Shift-JIS, EUC-JP or ISO 2022 JP. Any suggestions?
Edited by: bobajobrob on Mar 25, 2008 12:19 PM

1B 24 42 (ESC $ B) is valid in ISO-2022-JP. However, the text file includes invalid characters in the JIS X 0208 standard. The ISO-2022-JP converter in Java strictly follows the standards.
There are some ISO-2022-JP "variants" that are supported under different encoding names with compatibility workarounds. Please refer to Sun's bug ID 6173388 for details.

NI-DAQmx support for labview could not be found

Hi, I am pretty new to LabView. I was using VC++ to programming for my USB-6215. Just curious how LabView works, so I try to follow the "Introduction to Taking an NI-DAQmx measurement in LabView" and configure my USB-6215 in LabView. However, when I try to gererate codes for the DAQmx task name control, an error message pop up as "Error:NI-DAQmx support for labview could not be found. Please reinstall NI-DAQmx". I did reinstall NI-DAQmx, but it doesn't help. This error occurs anyway. Any idea how it happens and the solution is highly appreciated. Thank you.

LabVIEW RT driver support for CEI-620?

Hi All,
I am using PXI-8106 to run heavy-duty communication and one chasis holds the CEI-620 card (third party ARINC429 card from GE, formerly Condor Engineering). Currently on the PXI controller only runs LabVIEW RT (Pharlap) since I did not want to install Windows OS to slow the performance. Now here it is the problem, GE does not provide LabVIEW RT driver support for CEI-620 (they do have LabVIEW RT support for CEI-830 though, but that card is PMC interface). Basically right now MAX can not recognize the CEI-620 card on the host side, and I can not deploy my ARINC429 application VI to the target PXI controller. I am wondering anybody here has encountered the same problem and develop the LabVIEW RT driver for CEI-620 on his own?
Thanks.

Hi,
Unfortunately I don't have much more information to offer. I would suggest checking to make sure you have all the correct device information whe you create the ini file. I think you should still be able to develop a driver for a poll based device. It should be easier to generate an ini file if you do not require interrupt information. Make sure you have the correct identification information and try using the VISA Driver Development Wizard again.

LabVIEW DSP Test Integration Toolkit support for Code Composer Studio version 4

Hi,
I came to know about the LabVIEW DSP Test Integration Toolkit support for Code Composer Studio from the link http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/5839. I would like to know if this works with Code Composer Studio version 4 also. I am using CCSv4 with TMS320C6748 board. If not, can you please tell me if NI has brought out any software that helps in real time data exchange between CCSv4 and Labview?
Regards,
Debarati.

Debarati,
I did some more research into your issue and found out that unfortunately, NI no longer officially supports the DSP Test Integration Toolkit as seen here: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/5839
I also see that you located our example VI here http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/epd/p/id/4311 and that the VI asked you for a .pjt file that you could not locate in CCSv4. Being that we no longer support the DSP Test Integration Toolkit, your next course of action would be to contact TI and inquire what .pjt file corresponds to in the newest version of CCS. I hope TI can be of more help to you with this issue since, as I said before, we no longer support this toolkit.
My apologies,

DAQmx support for LabVIEW 2010

FYI to those downloading LabVIEW 2010 from NI web site:
After Installing LabVIEW 2010 (download from web site), I noticed that there is no support for DAQmx (i.e.. VI libraries) in NI_DeviceDrivers-February2010 DVD (my latest copy). Your have to download and install DAQmx 9.2 drivers (the first to include LabVIEW 2010 support).
Additionally, If you were using Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) 7.4.4 VIs in a prior version of LabVIEW, you must do one of the following:
      1. Uninstall current Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) 7.4.4 installation and re-install after completing LabVIEW 2010 installation.
          Reason: Traditional NI-DAQ (Legacy) installs support only for the latest version of LabVIEW found on the system.
Or
      2. Copy the the "<previous LabVIEW>\vi.lib\Daq" directory and all it contents to a new "<LabVIEW 2010\vi.lib\Daq directory. This way you can use Traditional NI-DAQ in both versions of LabVIEW.

I didn't have DVDs, I had to download.
Yes it was a mess. The device driver download took forever (NI can't help that). The installation took beyond forever (what else can be done?).
I was disappointed that I had to do all of this backing up of legacy folders and restoring them after installing the device drivers. Why does NI always have device drivers and toolkits install to the latest version of Labview only? Why couldn't they leave the legacy stuff alone?? I still use LV2009 and wanted to try LV2010. This involved a whole lot of trouble and time.
NI needs to provide a much easier way to upgrade, while still allowing previous versions to work without modification. Most people who upgrade will not completely abandon the older versions.
