Save for Previous version for VIs from lvlibs stored to llb
I am working on a new release of my BundleMagic plugin and have a new build issue.
The build takes all files for the plugin and saves them to an llb (the traditional way these plugins are distributed). A post-build action then attempts to backsave the contents of the llb to LV2015, so it can be used in any version of LV that accepts popup menu plugins.
The issue is that if I have VIs in an lvlib (such as the openG libraries I'm using), and then save these to the llb, paths to these VIs arenot accepted by the Save.For Previous application method. I get LabVIEW: (Hex 0x7) File not found.
The file does exist, but in the llb so does its lvlib. I created a minimal example to demo:
Note that the conversion can be done manually using the File menu. It just can't be accomplished programmatically. Here is what the file path looks like when found using the LV Path control browser (and what it looks like when getting a list of all files in the llb programmatically:
C:\Users\drwag\Documents\LabVIEW\...\test lvlib inclusion - Copy.llb\LSD_Application Directory__ogtk.vi
I don't know how this worked before. Maybe I used a previous version of LV where this didn't occur. I'd appreciate if anyone has an idea about how to go about converting the VIs in the llb to a previous version of LB, so I've included the llb of my minimum example.
