Building an application that does not use any local program files or libraries

[N8D11]

I need to build an application that will not use any local libraries or LabView program files(even if LabView is installed on the PC). I also am curious if anyone knows if there is a way to debug such an application(in it's compiled state).

Any help on these topics would be greatly appreciated.

If you enable debugging on the built application, you can hook up to the target computer on the network from your development system and probe the block diagram of the executable.

Will this work if the build application is using an invoke node to start multiple instances of a dynamically called vi? Does anyone know if Executable's only use the runtime engines. Are these the same ones the development environment uses?

Hello,

I am unclear on what you are trying to accomplish here. As the previous poster mentioned, if you enable debugging when building your application, you can remotely connect and probe the block diagram of the running executable. Executables use the run-time engine but could also access drivers or other run-times if using a specialized toolkit/module. This all depends on your application.

We have several test consoles that utilize the same hardware yet the same executable seems to be operating differently. I'll be able to get more information on this issue as I debug the executable. Thanks for the reply
