LabVIEW
Save for previous version (8.6 to 8.5) including dependencies
Hello everyone,
Once again please forgive me if I use the wrong terminology as I am very new to Labview.
Here is what I am trying to do. I have a project written in Labview 8.6. It has a number of files and some dependencies (which include .lvlib's .lvlclass's and some .vi's). I need to save this project as a previous version (8.5) and send it downstairs to the lab. I've tried to save it as a previous version using the the project explorer: file->save for previous version. When I zip up the project folder and send it to the lab and try and run it on 8.5 it says there are missing files. Specifically:
NI_report.lvclass
NI_reportGenerationCore.lvlib
NI_HTML.lvclass
NI_StandardReport.lvclass
I am not creating an executable as they need to be able to make some minor changes to the code. Both computers have the full Labview development suite. Also there is no chance that the lab can simply upgrade to 8.6 from 8.5 as these upgrades are scheduled by another department.
Is there any way to save this project so that it includes the dependencies that are missing in the project folder? I'm sure there must be a simple solution but I can't seem to get it to work.
As always any suggestions or advice is greatly appreciated. Please let me know if there is any more information I can provide. Also please feel free to tell me what I'm doing wrong as I'm keen to understand why what I'm trying to do isn't working.
Cheers,
Alex
Yes the toolkit is installed on the computer in the lab. I was able previously able to work on this project on either computer and only had problems once the upstairs computer was upgraded to Labview 8.6.
