LV2011 bug - Error wired to boolen function breaks when saving for previous version

I just downloaded LabVIEW 2011 this morning. I created this VI and saved it for LV2010 to see how it would deal with it. I opened the VI in LabVIEW 2010SP1 and the error wire is broken. There were no warnings about problems saving this VI as an earlier version.
=====================
LabVIEW 2012
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I would not consider this to be a "bug".
I would call it rather an "incomplete feature" were the extra-mile (backwards compatibility) is not fully implemented. So filing a suggestion is really the best thing to do (i will not file one since it is your idea, but i will kudo it!).
Saving VIs to previous versions does not change the BD itself. The requested functionality would require BD analysis and inserting (per scripting) an unbundle into the error wire. This is a complete new functionality, at least i am not aware that this is happening anywhere else....
As a "part time solution" i would like to see a BD analyzer which warns you about possible issues during downconvert. So in your case an "errorlist entry" like:
Warning: Connecting the error cluster to boolean functions is a new feature to LV 2011. Saving for previous version will lead to a broken VI.
just my 5 cents,
Norbert
CEO: What exactly is stopping us from doing this?
Expert: Geometry
Marketing Manager: Just ignore it.

  • Error saving for previous version 2009 to 8.5

    I have a project with a VI containing DAQmx Data Acquisition VIs, timed loops and other standard conrols and indicators.  When trying to save for previous version (from LV2009 to LV8.5) an error occurs.  All of the dependencies can be saved to previous versions but the main VI cannot.  Can anyone help with this problem?
    The error message can be seen in the image attached.

    Backsaving creates a folder structure with the backsaved VI and all support files in their relative locations. This might be useful in most cases.
    Very often I just need a single VI (without SubVIs) backsaved. I do this programmatically using VI server (open VI reference, then call the "Save For Previous" method, then close the reference). See image below.
    To do this for a project you could of course use a recursive file list and go through the whole list (programmatically), saving the VIs in a parallel folder structure (create destination folder before saving the VI).

  • Improper Format error while saving for previous version

    Hi all,
    I have been developing some Daq code with LabView 8.5. Recently I needed to open the vi on a computer which has Labview 8. I used the save for previous version option. I used low-level vi's in my code which are both available to 8.5 and 8 instead of using new express vi's. LV warned me about converting fixed point numbers to double precision while saving, which in my opinion should not cause a problem.
    I have also enabled "Show front panel when called" and "Show front panel when loaded" options from VI Properties dialog (as adviced by previous threads http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&thread.id=369331).
    However I was not able to solve the problem. Are there any suggestions to solve my problems?
    Thanks.
    Gokcen

    I dont understand exactly what the problem is.
    Have you used fixed point numbers in your code? and if so does it matter if LabVIEW converts them to DBL? If not then dont worry about it.
    What problem do you have with the 'show front panel when called' as it isnt clear from your message.
    Also, if you can post your problem code as it makes it easier for people to see the problem

  • Bug in LV8 : 'Save for previous version' and 'Write to Binary File' VI

    Hello
    I am using LabVIEW 8's revamped 'Write to Binary File' VI with a 'TRUE' boolean constant wired to the optional 'prepend array or string size?' to write non-trivial structures to a binary file. I then read the file with the 'Read from Binary File' VI and everything is fine. I don't wire anything to the 'file (use dialog)' input (don't know if this can help).
    However, after saving my VI for LabVIEW 7.1, I cannot read the binary files created with the LV7 version of the VI anymore. After examining the LV7 converted version of the VI, there is a 'FALSE' boolean constant that is wired to the equivalent of the 'prepend array or string size' input, which breaks the binary format that is expected.
    The attached files are LV8 and 'saved for LV7' versions of a dummy VI that writes an array of 5 integers into a binary file. To test the bug, start LV8, open the LV8 version, run it and create a 'test-lv8.bin' file, then open the LV7 version, run it and create a 'test-lv7.bin' file. Check the content of the two files : the size of the array is indeed missing from the 'test-lv7.bin' file, which can be assimilated as a bug in my opinion.
    I think I found another one too : if in LV8 I wire the 'cancelled' boolean output of the 'Open/Create/Replace file' to the selector of a case structure, the 'converted to LV7' version VI will have an error, saying the Case Structure selector is not wired.
    Could someone please confirm these are indeed bugs ?
    Thanks in advance and have a nice day.

    Test Binary File v7-v8 LV8.vi ‏7 KB

    I'm using LV8.6 and need to read a .bin file created in MATLAB. This file obviously does not contain the 4 byte header that LabVIEW prepends .bin files with. So when I use Read from Binary File, I get no data (I'm trying to read an array of doubles). I've tried making my .bin file both in native and big-endian format and changing the representation (double, int64, float64) but none of this works. I noted that if I create the same array in a .bin file in LabVIEW and wire a FALSE to the "prepend array or string size?", my VI for reading .bin files can't read this file either.
    Any work-arounds here?
    (I'll try attaching my write & read VI's)

  • Internal Software Error: .\AVTreeNode.cpp, line 25 when saving a project

    Hello,
    I am trying to work with Encore DVD 2.0 on Windows XP professional (SP 2). Until now with every project I try to make I see new error messages, and my whole work consists of trying to find work arounds.
    My actual project consists of five slide shows. They are all between 1 and 2,5 minutes. Except for one, that only consists of a black screen shown for 5 seconds.
    I have a playlist that contains all slide shows. Between two of the longer slide shows I inserted the 5 second black screen. What I wanted to achieve with this technique is that I can easily change the "gap" between two slide shows by changing the duration of the black screen slide show once. Alternatively I could have added a black image as the last slide two each of the four slide shows, but then I would have to change the duration of that slide four times when I want to change the gap between the slide shows.
    Anyway, I finally tried to create the project which resulted in the CVOBUPlanner.cpp error in line 331.
    So I wanted to track down the problem by
    - deleting some of the slide shows
    - saving the project under another name
    - trying to create that project
    So first I deleted everything but the first slide show from the playlist. then I deleted all the slide shows but not the first one (and the 5 second black screen though I didn't use it here), from the project. Saved the project under another name and created it without an error.
    Then I opened the original project again. Now I deleted everything but the first slide show and the 5 second black screen slide show. Again I deleted the slide shows, but not he first and the 5 second black screen.
    I tried to save the project under another name, but now I received an internal software error: .\AVTreeNode.cpp, line 25.
    After I restarted the application I was able to open the original movie, delete the slide shows and save the project under another name.
    I still wanted to let you now because this is an error message that I have not seen before and didn't find here in this forum.
    Regards,
    Christian Kirchhoff

    There are a couple of other threads about a similar error which seem to point to a possible chapter playlist problem:

  • Report Errors REP-1051 and REP-1070 when saving

    I just created a new report. I'm now getting errors REP-1051 and REP-1070 when I attempt to save the .rdf to my local hard drive (or anywhere else for that matter). Permissions where I try to save it are OK, in fact if I remove the SQL and insert "select * from dual", it saves nicely. Is there a query size limit of which I'm unaware? The SQL runs corrrectly, compiles correctly, etc. I just can't seem to save my work. Thank you in advance.

    REP-1051 and REP-1070 What are the messages for these codes?

  • Error 0xBFF69011 - "Unable to get attribute" when saving current camera settings to file

    Hi,
    I get an Error 0xBFF69011 - "Unable to get attribute" when attempting to save current camera setting to file with MAX. I was not able to save a single time, hence the settings the camera came with out of the box are still active.
    Camera: Basler acA2500-14um
    Camera firmware: 106215-05;U;acA2500_14u;V1.0-8;0

    Does anyone know what causes this error or how I can modify the camera settings and save the modifications to file?
    Thank you,
    Ferenc

    Yes, the 1.0 Basler firmware released after IMAQdx 4.2 exposed this specific problem. This has been addressed in Vision Acquisition September 2013 (13.1) which includes IMAQdx 4.3. There should have been a public KB created for this issue but I do not see it yet...

  • Error starting Portal or Commerce Server when Configured for Oracle

    I've been attempting to configure Portal 4.0 to work with Oracle. I'm running Oracle
