Top level from exe

I wouold like to be able to find out what VI was set as the start up VI when an executable was created.
I want to be able to read the VI Desc property of the Top level VI in an Executable ....but from another
executable.
Thanks

Hi Partha,
      I'm sorry you had trouble with "exe_miner.vi" - see warning #1. >
> What could posibily be wrong with my approach ?
Well, if you were to select a .VI instead of an .EXE, or select an EXE that wasn't created with app. builder - then that could explain error-messages!
Like I said, I tested this on just a few .exes.  If it doesn't work for you, maybe it can be fixed.   The VI chops-out the last 4096 bytes of the target EXE.  If you wire this string to an indicator.  Enable "\" codes, cut/paste the string into a .txt file, then attach the file, I'll work on making the "exe_miner.vi" handle a wider class of VI(s).  Note, exe_miner.vi is basing it's search on a particular character-sequence ("LVARLBVW") if this doesn't appear in the last 4096bytes, that could be a problem.
Cheers!

  • Cannot Create Folder at Top Level of Documents Library

    Operating System:  Windows 7 Enterprise, 32-Bit
    Environment:  Windows 2003 domain
    Security:  Local Machine admin, and domain admin
    Documents Library is redirected via Group Policy to
    \\servername\home\username
    Navigating to Libraries\Documents, there is no "New Folder" button available at that top level of the library.  When using File menu => New => Folder, I get "Unable to create the folder 'New Folder'   File system error (512)."  
    Looked that one up using Google, er, I mean Bing, and found articles about it being an old DOS\Win95 issue with the 512 max limit on the root drive.  Am familiar with that problem, and this ain't it. Less than 30 folders at the root level, and none more
    than 20 characters long. 
    From inside an Application, if I try to save to my Library\Documents folder, I cannot save a file to the root level.  I get "To save here, you must first include a folder in the Library."
    At this point where I am looking to save a file, I also cannot type a folder name for navigation, as I am used to doing with previous OS's.  So in my address area, I have Libraries\Documents, then I have a subfolder called "important."  If I type
    the word "Important," expect the system fo navigate down into that folder.  Instead I get "To save here, you must first include a folder in the Library." If I type "Important\" I still get the same error.
    Navigating to \\servername\home\username, I am able to create a New Folder at the top level from a Windows Explorer window, or from inside an application such as Word. 
    Mapping a drive letter to \\servername\home\username also will allow me to create a New Folder at the top level, from a Windows Explorer Window, or from inside an application.
    From a command prompt, I am able to get to the drive letter and create a new folder. 
    With the drive letter mapped, going back to Libraries\Documents, I am still unable to create a new folder that way.  
    I read these two threads, both of which sort of die off with no real answers.  So I've started my own.

    Any Help? 

    Hi,
    Regarding your problem, it seems that the user didn’t have appropriate permissions to create folders. To get it work, NTFS and Share permissions must be configured
    appropriately.
    Here are the Share and NTFS Permissions needed on the File Server Shares and the steps to do so:
    NOTE: The $ symbol should be used to hide the existence of the share.
    User Home Share Configuration:
    Here are the Share and NTFS Permissions needed for Home Directories:
    a. The Share permissions (Sharing Tab): Share Named: <HOME>$
    Administrators: Full Control
    System: Full Control
    Authenticated Users: Full Control
    b. NTFS Folder Permissions (Security Tab): Turn off inheritance on the Folder named <HOME>, and copy the permissions. (Uncheck "Allow inheritable permissions
    to
    propagate to this object")
    Administrators: Full Control
    System: Full Control
    Creator Owner: Full Control
    Authenticated Users: Read & Execute, List Folder Contents, Read
    c. On the NTFS Folder Permissions Click the Advanced Button. Then highlight Authenticated Users, Select View/Edit
    d. On the Permissions Entry for <HOME>, "the Apply onto" change to: "This folder
    only"
    e. Click OK
    f. Click OK again.
    More reference, please read the following document:
    Windows Server 2008 Share/NTFS permissions on home
    directories/folders
    Redirect the Documents folder to a network share

  • In application builder the top level vi is always set to "run when opened"; how do I turn this off so I don't have to change it each and every time I build a .exe??

    I build a lot of executables using Application Builder under LabVIEW and in every one I build, I don't want the top level vi to take off and run when I open the executable. Currently, I edit each .exe I build within Application Builder and change the option of "run when opened" from Yes to No for the top level vi. All the other subvi's are already set to No. It would seem as though there should be some way to "turn this off" if you will so the top level vi is not always set to "run when opened" by default within Application Builder. Is there such a solution that anyone knows of?? Any help would be apprec
    iated... thanks...

    Indeed the Application builder forces "run when opened" to true for top levels VIs. If you don't want your VI to make any real work when the application starts, you should simply put a do-nothing loop in the beginning of the VI that will loop until the user presses a boolean. It will be more intuitive for users to press a Run button on the FP than clicking on the white Run arrow in the bar.

  • In List View, how can I move an item from within a subfolder up to the top level of the window's parent folder?

    Up 'til now, from System 7.1 to Tiger—I skipped Leopard—you simply dragged the item onto the folder window's titlebar (since that folder's icon was, naturally, not in its own window) and BINGO! there it was, at the top level. Nothing I can think to do in Snow Leopard seems to work.

    Thanks. Most definitely does, although when experimenting I found the left window edge was closer, and 'scrubbing' the item just out of the window and back in seemed to fit the underlying file and folder metaphor better to my mind than just dropping it any old where in the window.
    And 'any old where', at any old speed doesn't always bring up the oh-so-subtle blue border that says, "I get it, you wanna add something to this window, hit me." That's The Clue. There seems to be an invisible line you hafta cross, and some kind of deliberate pace you hafta hit. Too fast and SL doesn't seem to always take it seriously. But that left edge scrub can be quite fast.
    Sorry about the over hasty denial, I was checking my facts and editting to say you were right when the board was shut for some sort of maintenance, and my bad became permanent. Please forgive.

  • Add a list from a subsite to the top level site SharePoint 2013

  • Nonsensical top level PDF bookmark in Crystal report exported from InfoView

    Thank you for any help or suggestions!
    I am using Crystal Reports 2008, the CMC repository, and InfoView.  I am producing PDF reports, many with bookmarks based on the group tree. 
    I have found that when I run my report off my workstation, all is fine, but when I run the same report out of InfoView, the top level bookmark is a string of nonsensical numbers and characters.
    Is there a way for me to ensure that this top level bookmark is something readable, perhaps the name of the report? 
    Thank you for your help!

    Hi,
    I ran into this problem just recently myself.  The report would export just fine out of the designer but when I would try to export it from CMC it would give me a root bookmark named along the lines of "~crw{33FB2DCD-838A-(more gibberish)....}.rpt"
    I eventually figured out how to solve it.  I am using Crystal XI R2, not 2008, but I suspect you may be able to resolve the issue using the same steps.  I believe that the gibberish name that you are seeing is the actual technical name of the report as it is stored on the Enterprise server.  In order to get it to display a nice formatted name of your choosing, open up your report in the report designer.  Now go to the File menu and select Summary Info.  In the Title section, provide the name of the report that you would like to see at the root of the bookmark.  You are esentially setting up an alias for it.  Now when you export, you should see the new name that you typed in as the main part of the bookmark.
    Hope this works for you!

  • Passing data from a subvi to the top level with continuously running loops

    Hi All,
    This is a very simple question, for some reason the data available at a subvi indicator is not making it to the top level vi. I think it might be something to do with the while loop I am using but I cant figure it out, any help will be appreciated. I don't think I fully understand how the data gets out of a continuously running loop.
    GPSdisplay runs a driver called GPS.vi (im not worried about my event structure just yet which might be wrong, but I am yet to test that bit yet) Probe 1 should have the values from GPSCluster
    Loop within GPS.vi. GPSCluster (Probe 2) is being updated correctly
    I cant work out why the data is not being passed to GPSCluster in the top vi
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi bennymacca,
    I think you are on the right track with an FGV. You can do this fairly easily with the GPS vi that you have.
    Before I go any further, your GPS while loop will only return the last reading, and because the "Read" boolean output state is FALSE, it will not stop. Do you see it exit at all? From the logic I read, once entering this while loop it won't stop until told to.
    There are a 3 options you can try.
    1) Use an FGV, as you are looking into. To do this you will need to change the state boolean to TRUE and put shift registers in for the GPSCluster - to parse the information around, holding it each time the vi is called and exited. Outside the while loop you will wire up the Cluster to the indicator that you wish to collect (OR, you could have it inside the case statement where it is read - be careful here, though). 
    2) in the main code, above the sequence frame you can place the GPS vi while loop (the "Read" one), having the state boolean wired to a Stop button local variable. This while loop will start depending on how LV feels, so wire an error line to both the While loop and Frame start (indicating that both are to run in a parallel fashion), OR you can put it in a case statement and say 'go' when you want to start reading. With this while loop, you can then output the Read data directly into your Cluster variable as it is generated.
    But, with (2) you are moving yourself away from the purpose of the GPS vi, which would be to bring all functionality of the GPS functionality into one sub vi - which is a good idea.
    3) put a condition on the "Read" case statement boolean state - only make it TRUE when you wish to stop reading data (do you have a time or condition you can refer to here?). Even doing so, you would/may still need shift registers on your while loop to retain data for each iteration.
    I hope all of that helps. Cheers. David.

  • How to remove the worksets from the Top level navigation for the ESS role.

  • SharePoint 2010 Content from top level site hidden from search results on subsite.

    Hi Everyone,
    The issue I am having is that when a group of people are in there site, we'll call it site B, and they hit the search function, they only get results from site B and subsites of site B, but nothing from the top level site, site A. does anyone know of anyway
    to get results from site A when searching in site B? This would really help me out a lot.
    Thanks!
    Best regards, Mike

    Hi Mike,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display the content in top level site in search results page when doing search in subsites.
    By default, the search scope is set to This Site in all sites, so the search scope in subsites is limited to the subsites.
    I recommend to create a Search Center and then edit the Search settings in the top level site settings, please refer to the image below:

  • Can we control the top level navigation in portal from a java application

    Hello,
    I am having a scenario where User logged in to portal and assigned with 2 roles (HOME , ISA(Java application)). When user opened a form in ISA (Java application) and tried to enter the data in form and moved to another tab (e.g. HOME) in top level navigation.
    When user come back to ISA (Java application) TAB , we show the page where he left earlier. I would like to know if user click any other TAB in top level navigation (Role assigned to him) while working on a page in ISA(Java application) is there any way we can catch that event before he leaves from ISA (Java application JSP page) to other TAB?
    How can we control the top level navigation events in the portal from a java application .Since Top level navigation is seperate par file.
    Thanks,
    RN

    Dear Rajesh,
    Top Level and detailed navigation values comes with iteration in the respective par file.
    Please check the par file and based on the value (i.e tab name) selected, you can write your code.

  • Name from the Top level Parent

    I need to write a property to retrieve value from the top level node. My current heiarchies are:
    A1
         A2
              S1
              A3
    B1
         D2
              S1!Shared
              B2
    C1
         C2
              S1! Shared
              C3
    The required property is to check for the shared node and if the top level parent is A1, then create a property value with A.S1. Similarily, if it is B1 then B.S1 and so on. I am thinking this can be achieved by creating a list, derived property using the top level parent name. ex,
    List     Value
    A1     If shared node then concat A+Name
    How to achieve this?

    The nodes A1 B1 C1 are they part of the same hierarchy and child nodes under the Hierarchy Top Node? or is the scenario something else?
    Thanks

    I am looking to embed a web part on each of the subsites that pulls the "team views" from the Master calendar to their respective subsites, any ideas?
