how to build a executeable shared variable engine (DSC 8.0)

[jan.plitzko]

Hello!

At first a short overview about the actual data-flow at my system: there are several Fielpoints and a Diagnostic-PC which also produces data. All measurement data should be logged at a server. Therefore in Labview 7.1 i used the Tag-Engine and their Datalogging via Citadel-Database. My problem is that we moved to Labview 8 and i have to build a executeable engine (should run without full installation of LV 8 an the server) which has to collect data from the Fieldpoints and the Diagnostic-PC and log this data too. Is there any possibility in DSC 8 to start the SVE with LV code? I miss functions like starting the tag-engine programmaticly with a predefined signallist which was possible in LV 7.1.

Best regards,

Jan

 In 8, you do not need to start the engine programmatically, it always run. To load a predefined net list all you need is to use the deploy library.vi from the engine control pallete. So for your server you need to have dsc runtime installed, then build and application where you can pick a library file to deploy and put the exe and library file on the server.
