Undefined Symbol in interactive operation

[DrewB]

I have a LabWindows/CVI (v6.0) project containing:
- a .fp file
- an attached .c file with the instrument functions,
- several other .c files containing helper functions,
- associated .h files.

I can build the project from the build menu and create a debug executable, which runs from main() ok.
However if I try to run a panel interactively I get 'Error linking generated code' followed by a list of Undefined Symbols for the functions called that are in the other .c files.

The interactive code generation does not seem to see the additional .c files. Have I missed some setup step or is there a fundamental concept I've missed?

Drew,

Those linking errors that you get are because CVI is not including the lib file when compiling in the interactive window.

In CVI 7.0 there is a setting that can help you. If you go to Options>>Environment you'll se an option to force project files into Intercative Window. and force Loaded Instrument Drivers into Interactive Window. I know in CVI 6.0 this options are a bit different, but there should be somethig like that. Remember to rebuild you FP and your project.

Hope that helps.
