Shared variable of different version of LabView

[Toni2]

Hello!

I have two PC computer with windows XP. On one computer is installed LabView 8.6.1 on second i like to install Labview 2009. Currently is not possible to install LabView 2009 on first PC. Is some problem to exchange data via shared variabe. Are necesarry to preform some specific settings?

Tanks for an answer!

Leave apart the Shared Variables for a while...

Do you think that 2 VIs developed in 2 diff versions of LV will interact seamlessly with each other?

Now comes the Shared Variable, which is like any other var viz local or global & the same concept would apply here too, right... ?!

Feel free to correct me if I m wrong.

Hi Toni2,

To be more specific: You can create Shared Variable in LabVIEW 2009 or in LabVIEW 8.6.1 and it will communicate with eachother without a problem (this still the same Shared Variable Engine).

Dawid,

I dont think you have answered the original query correctly.

What the poster has asked is whether SVs created across different versions of LV in 2 diff PCs can be accesses at the same time.

Not SVs created in LV 8.6.1 or LV 2009. It is LV 8.6.1 & LV 2009.

Partha,Toni2, 

First of all: if somebody posts some question please write it in a way that everybody understands!

Maybe I didn't understand the question correctly, but if we are talking about Network Shared Variables it doesn't matter if you create them in LV 2009, LV 8.6, LV 8.5 or CVI! You would still see them at your PC.

Of course you would have to do aliasing to bind Network Shared Variable with your local Shared Variable, but still you can access any NSV at the same time on different PCs regardless LV version. 

I tried that and I could work with SV created in LV 2009 and LV 8.6 at the same time on different PCs. 

Toni2, did you try to restart PC. It should automatically start after restart of Windows. On which PC you're working (with LV 8.6 or LV 2009?)?

BTW: Why you have stopped that service? 

Regards,

Dawid

Hello!

The problem are on computer with LV 2009. After restart of computer i detect problem in the share variable service. So i try to restart service manualy, but Distributed System Manager dosent see the variable on remote systems. I think the problem is in NI Variable Engine (tagsrv.exe). On version 8.6 on same computer was no problem.
