Why does Labview load the vi.lib directory on start of a VI?

[edwhill]

I am using LABView 8.0.1 and when I start a VI, it looks as if LabView is loading items in the vi.lib directory.  Is this normal?  I would not be concerned if I was using these items, but I am not using any of the libraries that are being loaded.  Given the nature of the programming that I am doing, I need to see it I can stop Labview from doing this.

I would consider it normal.  I believe a lot of the built in LabVIEW functions call subVI's located in that library.

I'm curious as to what is special about the "nature of programming" that you are doing that you need to stop this.

I guess the nature of the programming is misleading.  It is more the environment.  I have to make sure that the VI is not calling/doing anything that could show up as an entry in the security log.  The things that i am concerned about are things like smtp mail.  Is there a way to stop labview from loading items like this?

What makes you think your VI is loading functions that you are not calling - let alone running them? Are you perhaps seeing the harmless local traffic noted in this recent post?
