Need help finding resource for Code Interface Node

[mahill]

I have been given the task of converting some Labview 5.0 files to 8.5 files (using 8.2 as an intermediary).  However, some of the LV5 files have Code Interface Nodes in them.  I'm wanting to know if there's a way I can find out which *.lsb files correspond to which CIN.  Since I did not write the code, it is rather difficult to decypher what is going on.

Hi Mahill,

I believe that when a code interface node is created, it loads the file into the program, thus destroying the reference to it.  For this reason, it is difficult to determine the specific file that was intially used.  They should work the same between 5 and 8.5, though.  Have you been running into specific errors with the update process?

Regards,

Lauren,

The issue is that the vi cannot find the lsb required, as it is in a library somewhere.  I've dug around through all of my libraries on the 5.0 machine, but still cannot find it.  That's why I'm trying to find the link. 

Thanks for your help,

Michael

To be more accurate, the error that I'm getting says something about external subroutines not being allowed anymore in this version of LabVIEW

Hi Michael,

The error stating that external subroutines are no longer supported implies that there are some drivers or sub-VIs being called that you do not have. Have you gotten any specific warnings or does the program try to search for some VIs that do not appear to exist?   There is a similar forum on the cin source that may be worth looking at. 

Regards,

Lauren
