Project conflict with dynamicall​y called VIs

   I have a largish project in LV 2010 in XP and W7.  It's all in a project, as I build the main VI into an .exe.  There are numerous other top-level VI's that are called dynamically.  I use source code distributions to build them with their diagrams removed.  The .exe then calls them from a directory similar to "C:\DMT\My Project\Utilities".  (I never did find a good utility for discovering user directories across XP, W7, etc., so we ended up right in C: for config files and support files, stuff that often used to get put in with the .exe in XP and earlier OS's.)
   Besides the top-level VI's, I also have a set of VI's that can be called dynamically to do custom calculations.  The interface to each VI is simple and defined, so users with LV can create their own calculations, put their VI (and sub-vis) in "C:\DMT\My Project\Calculations", and my program can make a call to it.
   My problem is in how the project handles these VIs.  I need to include them in the project, since I need source code distribution builds to assemble a directory of the VI and all its dependencies.  So the actual source is in one place (under SVN), then I build them to another location, which I then deploy to "C:\DMT\My Project\Calculations".  The problem is, if I run the main program from within the project (rather than as an .exe), it links up to these calculations in "C:\DMT\My Project\Calculations" and then the project has conflicts.  The Calculation VI's in the project are now trying to point to "C:\DMT\My Project\Calculations" (which isn't in SVN) instead of to the true source code.  Every time I run the program from the project, I have to remember to go and manually fix the project.
   Sorry if that's a bit complex to describe.  But does anyone have suggestions on an alternate architecture that would eliminate this issue?
Thanks,

  • Path to Executable from Dynamicall​y called VIs

    QUESTION: How can I retrieve the path to an executable that is called from a VI that was created by dynamically loading a VI template?
    The application is a bit too complicated to post, so I will try to describe...
    I have a built executable. It dynamically calls VITs that are insides LLBs and executes them. Because they are dynamically called from a VIT, the VI loaded into memory this way is only a copy of the VIT on disk - there is no path information to the loaded VI. This all works fine.
    I would like to programmatically get a path to the calling executable from within one of these dynamically called VIs (or one of their subVIs). I have so far been unsuccessful.
    Call Chain only gives the names of the callers. I couldnt' find a way to get the path info to the EXE from just the name.
    The VI property "Caller's Paths" gives me an empty array of paths
    Constant paths are unacceptable - I need these modules to figure out the absolute path to data support folders of the calling executable. Not only will they be called by different executables at different times, any one of those executables may be in a different locatin depending on how/where it's deployed, i.e., all over the danged place!
    Any answer is appreciated, even if it's "no way, not going to happen"
    Thanks in advance!

    You need two application properties:
    Application.Directory Path and Application.Name
    Together they will form the total path of the calling executable

  • Usb portable sound card conflict with a game called rise of lege

    can anyone help me with a conflict issue i have with my usb sound card and the game of rise of legends

    Great Question!
    To know the answer to this question you usually have to be knowledgeable with multiple series of ATI, Intel, AMD & NVIDIA graphics cards & CPUs but I have a couple ideas for you to save time.
    The first is to visit PassMark Software, there they have almost all desktop/notebook graphics cards & CPUs benchmarked in an easy to read graph with higher meaning better. When you have the chart up just do a find on the page and put in 4800+ for the CPU or X1800 for the graphics card depending on which chart you have up. That will you your line on minimum specs you will take on a machine. I think you will be happy with the results! =)
    Second, if you already have the machine in front of you go to the Game-O-Meter website and run its diagnostic, after it has given you a baseline just pick one of the hundreds of games available in their list to see if yours is qualified or not. Not only will this give you your answer for Singularity but any others you might have been wondering about.
    Hope this helps!

  • Problems calling VIs remotely with RT-engine

    I have problems when I call VIs remotely and I create executables to run with the Run Time Engine 7.0.
    My program consists of a server that show some data (to the user) calling a VI that store such data. Another independent part of the program call such VI (which store the data) by remotely calling it with the VI Server. If I run the 2 programs under Labview 7.0 (directly installed) all goes well, but when I create the 2 executables and I run them, the data appeare only in the server. In the client I don't see any data even if I have no error detected.
    In the past I used the same methodology with Labview 5.1 in some application and I never had such problem.
    Could someone help me ?
    Thanks in advance.
    Linus

    I send you (as attachment) a llb with 3 VIs (Labview 7.0) : a server VI that call directly the message VI, and a client VI that call the message VI indirectly.
    I have compiled the server VI into an exe program (using the option that create the data.llb file).
    After installing that program (in the directory C:\programmi\Test\ ) and running it (with the Run Time Engine), if now I run the client VI (in the same machine) the value of the message displayed by the panel is not the same of the server.
    If I also compile the client VI into an exe program and then I run it (with the Run Time Engine), I obtain the same result (different values displayed).
    Only if I run the server VI and the client VI directly under Labview (in the same machine) the two VIs
    display the same message.
    If I also run the compiled exe version of the server VI and the client VI in two different machines I obtain the same message displayed.

  • How to Rename a Topic ID in Map File to Avoid Conflict with Another Program?

    Robo 8 HTML:
    Can somebody assist me in understanding how to rename a topic ID in my map.h file?
    An application programmer informs me there are nine topic IDs (shown below) in my project map file which conflict with predefined names of constants/functions from the Visual Studio Libs program and, is requesting I change the names of the topics listed below to resolve topic ID conflict in order to enable F1 call for these topics.
    #define Open    59
    #define Save    60
    #define Print   63
    #define Cut     72
    #define Copy    73
    #define Paste   74
    #define Clear   75
    #define Status  81
    #define Substructure  139
    Can I simply alter the topic names and retain their associated map numbers in <Create/Edit Map ID> dialog to resolve the map file conflict with Visual Studio Libs program functions? Or, is there more work involved in changing a topic name in a map.h file?
    Any assistance with this question is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    robert

    Hi,
    Simply renaming the TopicID's in the .h file won't work. The TopicID is used in the alias file (projectname.ali) to link a map number with a topic. Also, you can use either TopicID's or map numbers to call the help. (Using TopicID's only works for WebHelp afaik.)
    If you use map numbers to call the help, you can rename the TopicID using the mentioned dialog. No problem.
    If you want to change the ID from the files, you have to change both the .h file as the .ali file. No changes to topics needed.

  • Dynamicall​y-Launched VIs and Context Switching

    I'm working on a project that dynamically calls instances of a reentrant VI, which I assume is a pretty common practice. Everything works pretty well, until the number of calls to this dynamic VI gets pretty large--on the order of 1000 or more--at which point, we begin to see performance degradation. My guess is that we are taking hits due to context switching, since the number of threads far exceeds the number of logical processor cores available.
    A little more background:
    The dynamic VIs being called effectively run as daemons, each running a while loop and waiting on a dedicated input queue to receive data and save it to disk. All are stopped via a globally shared stop notifier (passed as a ControlValue.Set method argument at launch). Each is waiting on its respective queue with a 1 second timeout so that the stop notifier can be polled. Under normal operating conditions, each one will run at some rate between 0.1Hz and 25Hz (the various rates are a large driving factor for separating them and needing to spawn them dynamically).
    So, this leads me to the following questions:
    Am I correct that the context switching is the likely culprit in the performance degradation?
    If so, is there a fundamental difference in how LabVIEW handles multithreading with dynamic VI calls versus explicitly drawing separate while loops on a block diagram, or dropping multiple instances of a reentrant VI directly on the block diagram?
    Is it likely that reducing the number of dynamic clones to equal the number of available processor cores would improve performance? (the scope of each clone would grow, as it would have to maintain the state information that was original distributed across multiple clones)
    I realize that this question is pretty vague without concrete examples, but I'm hoping someone (AQ? Ben? Any of you NI gurus?) out there could provide some general insight into what's going on under the hood without needing to get too specific.

    TurboPhil wrote:
    Each is waiting on its respective queue with a 1 second timeout so that the stop notifier can be polled.
    There is one relatively easy fix you can probably make here - set the timeout to -1 and destroy the queues to stop the loop (destroying the queue will output an error from the wait primitive). This should at least stop all the code from running all the time, although I'm still not sure how the threading of the different VIs will play with each other. This might be an issue if the queue is only created in the VI, but I'm assuming it isn't.

  • Possible Xcelsius conflict with IPv6

    Xcelsius and IPv6:
    We ran into an interesting issue on a client site this past week. First time implementing an install on a Windows Server 2008.
    Environment:
    Win Svr 2008
    IIS 7
    Ipv6 & Ipv4 enabled
    BOE 3.1 w/ Xcelsius 2008
    The install went flawlessly with the ability to export objects/reports to the enterprise system, etc - with no problems. However, Xcelsius had issue with trying to connect to the CMS when trying to save/export to BOE 3.1 (and ONLY Xcelsius)
    We noticed they are running a NIC with IPv4 and IPv6 simultaneously (clearly listing a long hexidecimal IP address labeled IPV6 in IPCONFIG)
    So we went into the CMC/CMS properties and there is a box to manually enter an IPv4 and IPv6 IP address, respectively. If you try to enter addresses in both boxes, when you restart the CMS -- it will reset back to the default which automatically obtains the host. Therefore, we entered purely the IPv4 address and restarted the CMS.
    First issue resolved.  We were able to then hit Enterprise from Xcelsius... until you tried to save. Then it thought the Input FRS was down. So we had to perform the same step for the Input FRS and force it to a static IPv4 address of the server.
    Using the host name didn't work (that is the other option in the server properties for each service). I imagine you could play with the host file, but then you may have to do that for each client.
    In the end forcing the IPv4 address for the CMS and Input FRS properties did the trick, but it is strange because if you used the defaults -- the publishing wizard, for example, which hits the CMS and the Input FRS when importing objects -- didn't have a single problem. Only Xcelsius appears to conflict with IPv6.
    Thoughts? We would have figured it would use the same methods to connect to communicate with enterprise as Crystal Reports client, publishing wizard, etc. However, I did notice in SAP's IPv6 documentation on the Support Portal, that although 3.1 does handle IPv6 -- Desktop Intelligence still does not. Perhaps Xcelsius should be added to that list in the documentation?
    This is fine for a server with a static IP, but if for some reason their server is using a dynamic address and relying on the host DNS -- this could be an issue.
    Thoughts?

    HI,
    I've heard this problem before, but I haven't heard of a resolution.
    The NI's GPIB driver (NI-488.2) will not work with the Measurement Computing board. Not in LabVIEW 5 or 6. If you are using the GPIB VIs in LabVIEW 5 with the Measurement Computing board is because the MC driver replaced something.
    A device driver is a software component that requires detailed knowledge of the hardware it manages. NI's driver is written to control NI's GPIB hardware ONLY. The same applies to the MC driver.
    The driver also provides a Language interface, so that you can access the driver's functionality. To program in C, a driver will provide a header file with the function declarations and a dll (or static library). For LabVIEW the driver will provide the V
    Is. These VIs are provided by the driver and developed by the driver manufacturer. Most likely these VIs are wrappers for the dll function calls. This mechanism hasn't changed between versions of LabVIEW.
    You should contact Measurement Computing. They should be able to troubleshoot the problem, since they know what their driver installs.

  • Custom visual styles conflicting with Firefox theme

    I've installed a custom visual style on my Windows 7 machine. The thing is, it seems to conflict with Firefox's layout. It doesn't affect Google Chrome at all. But it changes Firefox's layout - and when I try to install a theme into Firefox, it really messes it up. Anyway I can tell firefox to ignore the visual style applied in the computer? Maybe in the userChrome.css file?

    Ok,
    Finally found a way to get this working. First you need to add  the class from a related COM/XP styling Microsoft KB article (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830033) into your .NET forms project. The class EnableThemingInScope will selectively apply XP styling. In my Form Main method I have removed the call to EnableVisualStyles , and instead invoke the EnableThemingInScope constructor around the call to Application.Run. Now I can have XP styling for my forms app and retain the default look and feel of the TestStand UI controls. Hope this helps someone else.
    static void Main()
    // doesn't work with TestStand 3.5 UI controls -- Application.EnableVisualStyles();
    Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false);
    Application.DoEvents();
    using (new EnableThemingInScope(true))
    Application.Run(new MainForm());

  • New FIOS customer with dropped VOIP calls and Internet connection

    I am a new FIOS customer. Got my 50/25 connection a week ago, switching from a TWC 6/1 connection. Ever since the new connection, I've had numerous issues.
    My VOIP (Ooma) connection constantly drops and re-connects during conversations
    I've had random Internet connection losses, which picks up again after a few minutes
    My home alarm starts chirping every once in a while
    I've contacted Verizon several times due to these problems and have received varying answers with no resolution of the problem.
    The first time I spoke with support, the tech logged into my router and changed the WiFi channel saying that would fix the problem. It didn’t.
    The second time I contacted them, the tech ran a bunch of diagnostics and said everything looked fine so it must be an IP address conflict with my devices, because I had a couple devices using static IP addresses. He said everythinf should be DHCP and the last two digits could not be higher than 99 (192.168.1.99). He said FIOS does not support 3-digit numbers at the end.
    So I changed all my devices to DHCP and ran some online VOIP tests. It showed a packet loss of 2-5% and MOS score of 1 (which is bad). I was still getting dropped connections, so I disconnected all devices and connected just one computer to the router and tested again. I was still getting packet loss.
    Then I called support a third time, this time the tech said there were no 2-digit IP restrictions and that he was detecting there was no UPS baterry backup for the ONT which was probably causing the problem, so he dispatched a field tech to my house.
    Today the field tech came (same guy as before), he took one look at the box and said it was too close to my Electric meter and the RF from the meter was causing interference to the FIOS connection and resulting in dropped connection.
    He moved the ONT to another location and said that should fix it.
    Well, I'm still seeing packet loss and low MOS score when I run the VOIP test.
    I don't know how much of what the techs are saying is true and how much is made up stuff.
    Has anyone had similar issues and have thoughts on solutions or likely causes for dropped VOIP calls and connections? Could RF be causing this?
    I thought going from a 6/1 Cable connection to a 50/25 FIOS connection would be awesome, but this has turned out to be a nightmare, and I may have to switch back to cable if the problem is not resolved.
    I would appreciate any help.
    Thanks!

    Don't know where the packet loss is happening. I ran the VOIP test on myspeed.visualware.com and it shows a packet loss of 2-5% at different times and a MOS score of 1.
    The report says MOS should be around 4 for good VOIP calls.
    The Verizon tech who came to the house just blamed the electric meter box for RF interference and move the ONT farther away.
    My concern is that I'm getting different answers from different techs at Verizon.
    Regarding IP addresses. The Router shows a DHCP range from 192.162.1.2 to 192.168.1.254 as available for devices on the network. So, if I need to assign a static IP to a device should I use a number below 99 or above 151?
    Thanks!

  • Flash Player 10 does not work in IE or Firefox. What could it conflict with?

    I'm  using Firefox 3.6.8 (and sometimes IE 8.0.6001.18702IC) on Windows XP Pro, SP 3.
    For some weeks now, I have been unable to hear any sounds on anything Flash-based, from YouTube to games at MSN.com or embedded videos on any site using Flash.  Initially I had assumed it to be because of having QuickTime installed because I know QT likes to hijack everything.  I uninstalled QT (and Real Player) and Flash Player then reinstalled Flash Player (and Shockwave Player just in case) and guess what?
    Yup.  Nothing.  When I uninstalled everything, I used a program called Revo Uninstaller, which includes a registry cleaning option.  I then used Abexo and WinASO's registry cleaners to make sure I got everything else that even looked like QuickTime off my hard drive.
    When I reinstalled Flash, the following programs appeared in C:\Windows\system 32\Macromed\Flash:
    Flash 10i.ocx (10.1.82.76)
    FlashUtil10i_ActiveX (10.1.82.76)
    FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.82.76)
    genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
    FlashUtil10i_ActiveX.dll (10.1.82.76)
    NPSWF32.dll (10.1.82.76)
    KB931433
    FlashInstall
    Install
    Flashplayer.xpt
    When I check IE's "Tools" and look for add-ons, it says that Flash (Shockwave Flash) is enabled.  I even enabled the other Adobe add-ons for Acrobat and such just to be sure.  Firefox shows Shockwave Flash and Shockwave for Director both to be enabled.  The Flash control panel settings don't help: I have all sites set to store about 100 KB on my computer to make sure there's enough room for everything but still nothing.
    Before anyone asks, my audio drivers are up to date, thanks to the manufacturer's website.  I have DirectX 9.0c installed and everything else works fine.  I can play audio and video elsewhere with no problems.  It's only Flash that's showing me this trouble and there's no hint as to what else could be interfering with Flash.
    Any ideas?

    Well, great.  I tried the uninstall/reinstall before, but not with the uninstaller, so I was hopeful that this time might do it.  No such luck.  The video still plays, but no sound.
    All the sound settings are working with everything else from games to media players.  I set Windows' firewall to allow both the ActiveX and plugin for Flash, just in case.
    In the Flash folder, I now have:
    Flash10l.ocx (10.1.102.64)
    Flash Util10l_ActiveX (10.1.102.64)
    FlashUtil10l_Plugin (10.1.102.64)
    Genuinst (6.0.2800.1531)
    FlashUtil10l_ActiveX.dll (10.1.102.64)
    NPSWF32.dll (10.1.102.64)
    And the setup and text files that went with 'em.
    I've also done a system restart since then and zip.
    I went through IE and Firefox and looked for any file associations (like .flv) that I could manually change over to using Flash, but no go.  The settings panels for Flash have all been set to allow YouTube specifically (as a test) and to allow 10KB of storage space for all affected sites.
    Now what?  I'm really not looking forward to a reformat and reinstall, but it's looking like that's what it's going to take.

    Something is strange with your list of modules; you list FlashUntil10i_Plugin (10.1.102.64), but this is really 10.1.85.3
    I recommend that you uninstall Flash Player completely (using http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/141/tn_14157.html), then restart Windows, and delete all remaining files in C:\Windows\system32\Macromed\Flash.
    Next reinstall both ActiveX (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe) and the plugin (http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe).
    After that, if the problem persists, have a look at this page http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/837/cpsid_83739.html

  • Do I have a conflict with iTunes 7.6.2 . . or what ?

    Dunno if I do or not, but . . shortly after upgrading to iTunes 7.6.2 we suffered a power "Blink" . . and when i noticed it had happened the Mac was attempting to restart . . with a blinking Mac, then a question mark in the icon . . nothing else . . In the past I've seen it once before, and a shutdown and restart was all that was necessary . . This time . . NO . . Nada, same deal, through 8 restarts . .
    I finally reinstalled OSX 10.1, and followed with all the updates directly from Apple . . using the "Update" command under the apple . . It now does "funky" things . . like, one, it doesn't recognize the WD External HD on the desk top, but it does in the system profiler . . another, once in a while a dialog box comes up asking what to do with a disk, initialize, eject or ignore . . and probably what leads me to believe it could be a conflict with iTunes is during shut down, iTunes will not "Quit", even when using "Force Quit" . . it will close the desktop, go to a blue screen and then start up again . .
    And . . I'd really like to install 10.4 but I can't seem to find anyone with a legal one for sale . . I called Apple a week ago and they said they might produce them in four or five weeks . . what's my options here?

    None the less . . we still gots gremlins . .
    And while I'm asking . . how come Safari is so fragile?

  • PP CS6 on Retina Macbook conflicts with YouTube/Pandora

    I bought my Retina Macbook recently, and the first thing I did was to install Premiere Pro CS6 on it. I did the hack - inserted GeForce GT 650M to the list - and enabled the Mercury Playback Engine.
    Ever since then, I've been having all sorts of problems, but the most annoying problem is that in the midst of editing, somehow Program Monitor would either freeze or black-out.
    I seriously tried every possible ways I could do to resolve this as an average user. I tried resetting the preferences, switching the drives, turning the machine on & off, and all the magic joojoos. None of them worked, until I found out the problem starts to happen as I open other applications along with the Premiere Pro opened.
    I began to wonder, does the graphic card or Premiere Pro CS6 conflict with any programs I have opened? So I tested it out.
    I found out that while having CS6 and Safari (or any kinds of web-browsing programs) on, the "crashes" occur very often. I also found out it typically happens when I turn on Pandora and YouTube.
    The moment I shut off the Pandora tab, YouTube tab, or even websites with any kinds of visual or audio media turned on, the freezing or black-out situation on the Program Monitor immediately stops. If turning off the tabs doesn't work, then quitting the program entirely solves the problem.
    From what I've tested, it's for sure to say Flash or Video Playback on webpages conflicts with GT650M card. It's certainly not the software problem, because when Software Only mode is turned on, all the images come back on the Project Monitor. I mean, what kind of weird conflict is this?
    Can anyone else with a Retina MacBook confirm this?
    In case if Anyone is wondering, this is the setup I've used.
    Retina Display Macbook Pro
    16GB Ram option
    256GB SSD option
    NVidia GT650M 1GB VRAM
    Video files in the SSD

    It's absolutely woeful.
    Like traveling back in time with modern software and putting it on last generation hardware... or two generations previous hardware.
    What floors me the most is that there's not any spikes or even utilisation of the CPU and GPU going on... I have CPU and GPU monitoriing software for the more beserk applications I use.  I checked them out when using Illustrator and Indesign.  The CPU and GPU is hardly getting tickled... so it's JUST poor software engineering at work.  VERY POOR software engineering.
    There's at least 90% of the CPU and GPU power completely unused during moving operations and object creation.  So it COULD be fast, and performant, if they cared to actually use the CPU and/or GPU more effectively/thoroughly when we want to DO something inside the software.
    I don't even know how you'd code something this woefully under performant.  You'd have to plan to do it, or be using MONO or some other uselessly single threaded, low priority frame work...
    Maybe these apps are programmed in Java
