visa resource name control and application builder

[Bernd-U. Seifert]

Hi there,

does anybody know the reason why an executable _always_ crashes if you
put a visa resource name control on the panel?

All my applications using this control run fine under LabView6.02. But
even a *.exe containing nothing else than this strange control crashes
immediatly after launching.
Application builder gives no error messages, so what cause this
annoying behavior?

Thanks for your help,
\Ulli.

When you run your .exe, are you running it on a system that has VISA installed? I've created a lot of applications with a front panel control and none of them crash. Besides a local copy of VISA, right click on the control and check the Allow Undefined Names and see if that makes a difference.

Hi Dennis,
NI VISA is installed on my system and undefined names are allowed as
well. Any other idea?

Make sure that your run-time engine is version 6.02. This was a bug in version 6.0

That was a bug in LabVIEW Run-Time Engine 6.0.
Make sure that LRTE on the target machine is updated to 6.0.2

Ooops,
LRTE was 6.0. I updated it and the problem is fixed now.

Thanks to all,
