Libraries

[Clint Eastwood]

If I'm using ( modify)  a vi that is part of a library (xx.llb) how do I capture all the subvis in that library when I give it to another user.  I had a PS vi that I modified and gave to someone to review.  When he opened it on his machine there were broken arrows to the subvis that had come w the library.  They were missing.  This was a llb that Lambda had sent.  It was their driver.

Save with Options -> Developement Distribution (as LV 7, might have changed). This will copy all SubVIs (I think except those in vi.lib).

If you have several 'top-level' vi's, either place them inside a tree.vi or use the OpenG builder.

Hello,

In LabVIEW 8.x and higher, including LV 2009 you should place all the VIs in a project and then right click Build Specifications and select NEW >> Source Distribution. There are a few more steps and another suggested way of addind a VI to an existing LLB in this KB:
