Build an Labview installer with Oracle OLE DB drivers included

[hgfox]

I am using Labview 8.51 and the connectivity toolset and I have written an application which reads and writes data to an Oracle 10g database.

Now I want to build a Labview installation routine for my application which includes the oracle OLE DB drivers for an easy installation on the target PC. I am using the Labview Application Builder Version 8.51.

How can I include this drivers an how can I manage the installation of drivers, udl-files without the need to run a further installation, eg. the oracle client setup, in advance? Is there a possibility to write a small batch script which I can enclose to the installation routine and which is started once after the Labview Runtime engine plus my application is installed?

I have read the connectivity toolset manual, especially chapter 6, and I have also seen the example for an application builder routine including mdac drivers, but I did not find the real answer of my problem.

Can anybody help me or have some experiences in that?

Many thanks

HG

Hi hgfox,

the following link describes how to build an executable with LabVIEW 8.x and Database Connectivity Toolset:

To add additional installers you have to go to the "Additional Installers" section of the "Installers Properties" window. There you can add further installers. ( see also: http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/E09BA0E2F31D304F86256A640070058E?OpenDocument).

The following link describes how to run a batch file after installation:
