Make executable file from VI file

Hello!
I would like to know how to generate the executable file (For example: instruments.exe) form original vi Labview file format. Is it possible to run the VI without Labview or Labview Viewer on any 32 bit Windows system? (95/98/NT/2000).
Thank you for your help.
Yours sincerely
Vik

What you need is the "Application Builder" (see http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/nioc.vp?cid=10730〈=US for more info)
From the ni.com website:
"LabVIEW Application Builder [gives you]
* Ability to create stand-alone executables
* Protected applications
* Easy-to-use Distribution Kit Builder
* Included as part of the LabVIEW Professional Development System
The LabVIEW Application Builder is an add-on package for creating stand-alone applications. When used with the Application Builder, a LabVIEW system can create VIs that operate as stand-alone applications. You can run the executable, but cannot edit it."
So, if you have the LabVEIW Professional Development System, then it's alreay built in (you can find it under "Tools">"Build Applciation or Shared
Library (DLL)". If you don't have the professional development system, then the App. Builder can be purchased separately.
Once the exe has been built with the App. Builder, the target machine needs to have the Run-Time Engine installed as well...
cheers,

    You need the Professional version to make an executable.  You could also buy the App Builder seperately.  I don't remember the price at the top of my head.

  • URGENT ! Making EXEcutable file in Forms 4.5/5/6 ???

    Dear Experts
    I am using Forms 4.5 & Reports 2.5 for Oracle 7.3.2 database.
    Can I make EXEcutable file to run the application directly ?
    If it is not possible in this version, Is it possible in Forms ver 5 ? ver 6 ?
    If so, what is the procedure / menu sequence.
    Richard

    Simply no way.
    You have the forms runtime that you use to launch your .fmx.
    So, you will have a batch file that launches your form using the forms runtime.
    It may be something like:
    D:\ORANT\BIN\F50RUN32.EXE g:\centrala\tlogin_noi_cen USERID=login/login@apollo usesdi=yes
    This works for Forms 5.0 and the given form & database include some trick for logging on a "system user" without revealing the Oracle username & password that actually owns the object schema needed for the application. It may well be without logging on to a database, the user having to log on through the default forms logon screen, or you may design a logon screen of your own.
    RTM on your forms runtime command for more details, and check the logon & logout built-ins.
    If you must have applications in straight .exe files, give up using Forms and use some other tools (Delphi, C++Builder, VB, MSVC++, but not some Java development environment, that doesn't produce .exe either).

  • How to make .jar files executable by double clicking

    hi,
    I've been trying to make my .jar file created via ANT Tool executable by double clicking it but I'm not being successfull. I looked at the ANT Tool for making manifest.mf and I included most of the attributes listed there and later found that Main-Class attribute is required but its not mentioned in the documentation.
    So, I'll be very greatful to receive any suggestions
    regards,
    Jay

    ya I've been doing things the same way mentioned there but it isn't working. here is the code for it:
    //All the .class files are in the build directory and the class files are under the package org.home.proj.
    <!-- For making .jar files -->
    <target name="jar" depends="compile" description="Makes CyberStation.jar from the CyberStation code.">
        <mkdir dir="${bin}" />
        <jar jarfile="${bin}/CyberStation.jar" basedir="${build}">
          <exclude name="**/run.bat" />
            <manifest>
           <attribute name="Buily-By" value="${user.name}" />
           <attribute name="Main-Class" value="org.home.proj.CyberSoft" />
             <section name="org/home/proj/CyberSoft.class">
               <attribute name="Sealed" value="false" />
             </section>
         </manifest>
        </jar>
      </target>It show the error: Could not find the main class. The program will exit.

  • How i call a executable file from a pl/sql

    how i can call a executable file make in c (unix) from a pl/sql
    Thanks for your help

    You need to use libraries. use the executable and create a library by specifying the path and invoke it from the Stored procedure. It is like an external file to the database.

  • Cannot make executable jar file for swt application

    hi to all!!! i have started learning swt library and it seems nice to me, but i have one problem, i cannot run my application. The problem is that i cannot make executable jar for it.
    i'm using ecilpse_3.1.2 and have pluggined the visual editor for swt! yesterday i found one topic where was described the process of making the swt executable jar, i followed the instructions in the topic, but didn't resolve my problem, so if anybody knows how to achieve this , please help!!!!!!
    the instructions in the mentioned topic are :
    1. Make sure the SWT jar file is included in the Eclipse project build path
    a. Download the standalone SWT jar file from eclipse.org even if you already have the ones that come with Eclipse. It is called ?swt.jar? and you will package it with the executable JAR. Make sure it is the same version of SWT that you used to make your program.
    b. In Eclipse, import swt.jar via Project Properties::Java Build Path::Libraries::Add External JARs. (Make sure to include the source .zip file). Also make sure to select the swt package in the ?Order and Export? tab.
    c. At this point, you should be able to compile and run your SWT application in the Eclipse SDK.
    2. Do a standard Eclipse jar file export
    a. Right click on the main .java project file and select ?Export??.
    b. Choose ?JAR File? from the list.
    c. Select the relevant packages and .classpath and .project resource files
    d. Make sure ?Export generated class files and resources? is selected and browse to the location where you want the JAR file to be created.
    e. Specify ?Generate the manifest file? and don?t seal the JAR or any packages. Choose the class containing the main method as the ?Main class?.
    3. Change the manifest file
    a. Navigate to the JAR file you created and open it with WinZip.
    b. Open the MANIFEST.MF file inside and copy the contents.
    c. Create a new file called ?MANIFEST.MF? and paste in the contents of the old manifest file.
    d. Add the line ?Class-Path: <swt jar file path>?. For simplicity, you can just keep a copy of the swt.jar file in the same folder as the executable jar, in which case, the line is ?Class-Path: swt.jar?. Make sure there is a carriage return after the last line in the manifest file, or that line will not be parsed.
    4. Replace the manifest file
    a. Make sure the manifest file and the executable jar are in the same folder.
    b. Open the command prompt and navigate to the containing folder.
    c. Enter the command ?jar umf MANIFEST.MF <executable jar name>? to update the manifest file with the class path information.
    5. Package the JAR with SWT files
    a. Put the updated executable JAR file, swt.jar, and the associate DLL in the same folder. The DLL can be pulled out of swt.jar and should have a name like ?swt-win32-####.dll? on Windows.
    b. The JAR file should now successfully execute. On Windows, you can usually just double click the JAR file in explorer and it will open. If that does not work, the command ?java ?jar <executable jar name>? on the command line has the same effect.
    but a few steps aren't exact for me , for example : first, which jar i have to include in build path : downloaded or from plugins folder, second
    i have to incude source.zip too??? but it is only in downloaded zip file which includes both swt.jar and src.zip, and finally can anyone clarify next :
    "5. Package the JAR with SWT files
    a. Put the updated executable JAR file, swt.jar, and the associate DLL in the same folder. The DLL can be pulled out of swt.jar and should have a name like ?swt-win32-####.dll? on Windows."
    what does this mean, put these in folder or make jar from them????

    but a few steps aren't exact for me , for example : first, which jar i have to include in build path : downloaded or from plugins folder, secondTry it both ways. If neither works, then ask again. In a suitable forum, though. An Eclipse forum or an SWT forum or something related to where you got those instructions would make a lot more sense than asking here.
    i have to incude source.zip too???No, of course you don't have to distribute the source code.

    what does this mean, put these in folder or make jar from them????It says "Put (them) in the same folder". You're asking whether that means to put them in a folder? Yes, it does.

  • HT1349 how do you import video to Aperture from a dvd with a unix executable file

    how do you import video to Aperture or imovie from a dvd with a unix executable file?

    Allan's suggestion of using the iDisk will work but will fill up the iDisk unless you do housecleaning occasionally. Another, non Apple way would be to upload them to an account on Twango.com. It sort of like MyTube but for photos and videos and is more personal in nature. It's free (monthly uploads are limited to 250MB/mo) and others can easily pop into your public channel (individual sections of a person's account are called channels) and download whatever size you want. You can select the size of your uploads from full sized to 1600, 1024 or 640 pixels max. What I like about the site is that you can email photos to your account. Makes it rather easy. You can also add slideshows and a ticker tape type of display from Twango to web pages (they create the code to use for the channel you select) like this. It's not an Apple thing but I've found it's quick. May or may not be what you're looking for.
    Do you Twango?

Now when I run the program, my main vi opens up with four boolean. Now two of the boolean works perfect but the other two gives the window error. Can someone help me in this regard. I dont see why the two booleans would give me error. What could be the possible cause?

    Have you installed the patches for LabVIEW 6.0? The latest patch is LabVIEW 6.0.2 and is available free for download from here. You should definitely have the latested patch installed.
    Also, can you check your Application Builder settings to make sure that the front panels for your 2 subVIs that cause the crash aren't being removed? LabVIEW 6.0 would sometimes mistakenly remove the panel, which would of course cause the crash if you tried to call the subVI and view its front panel. Also, VIs that Property Nodes or Invoke Nodes shouldn't have their front panels removed, since these rely on front panel data.
    You can check these settings from the VI Settings tab of the Application Builder as seen below:
    To modify these settings, click the Edit Build Settings button to see the following dialog:

  • How can I transfer or make readable files from one user to another on the same iMac

    I have migrated files from a windows PC to my Imac. The transferred files have been saved successfully against a new user (which I can access). How can I make those files available to the all users of my Imac?

    In FINDER, drag and drop the files into the Public Folder.  All Users can then access those files.
    Hope this helps

    I want to run local PC executable files from inside the portal. To be more specific I want to be able to open the Outlook and some powerbuilder executable applications.

  • When I want to attach a file to an e-mail I'm sending from my iCloud account it makes the file show up in the body of the e-mail instead of attaching it as a separate file the receiver can open.  How can I change this?

    When I want to attach a file to an e-mail I'm sending from my iCloud account it makes the file show up in the body of the e-mail instead of attaching it as a separate file the receiver can open.  How can I change this?

    It should be an attachment.  Your Mac just displays a preview of certain attachments (such as .pdfs) in the body of the message.  A PC, for example, will see it as an attached file rather than a preview.
    You can save the attachment on your Mac by Control-clicking on it and selecting Save Attachment.

  • Where are these unix executable files coming from and how do I recover the original text file?

    where are these unix executable files coming from and how do I recover the original text file?

    When you upgraded to Lion did you have AppleWorks installed on your mac?
    Most of the AW documents can be opened by Pages 09 or Numbers 09 with most of the orginal format in tact. (I do not know if previouse verision will work) just open the AW file with both and see which one works best.
    Text Edit will also open most of the AW files as well but will require a lot of work to restore them to their orginal format.
    If you have AW Database documents then they are not supported. 
    These document show up as "exec icons", Kind: Unix Executagle File.
    They also will show up as .cwk file if they are small files. I have a couple that were under 1mb that are shown as " Kind: AppleWorks Document" but will not open.
    The only option to open AW database is to have AW installed on a mac with a pre-Lion OS to recover the file.
