GOOP on Real Time

[Allen_W.]

Will VI's built with the GOOP Inheritance Toolkit run under LabVIEW RT on an embedded real time controller?

Hello,

The GOOP Inheritance Toolkit is a product of our alliance partners in Sweden, Endevo, who would be able to provide more information about any RT compatibility.

Another alliance member that might have some insight on this is V I Engineering who also sells the tool in the US.

The case study on the NI Developer Zone (click here) uses an example of GOOP and LabVIEW RT, but I'm not sure if that applies to all VIs developed with this toolkit.

We have not run GOOP (Inheritance Toolkit) on an embedded real-time controller so we have no empirical proof. However, what is needed for GOOP to run is:

* the _goop2.llb,

* a file system since we use file system functions to find dynamically loaded VIs (Current VI path, Strip Path, Build Path). I checked with NIs support and they said all LV RT targets have a file system so this should not be a problem,

* VI Server. This shouldn�t cause any problems either.

Therefore the answer is yes, it should work to run GOOP on LV RT but since we haven�t run our release tests on LV RT I cannot guarantee that it will work.
