Is there Expect library for LabWindows

[Raj_V]

Hi dtadenev,

Unfortunately CVI does not have a built in library that supports Expect. It's possible that you may find third party libraries by scouring the internet but we don't provide one ourself.

I’d advise to think about adding expect.h to LabWindows. It may help somebody like myself to handle interactive applications easier.

Thank you for clear answer.

Hi Raj,

Do you have any idea how to use Expect scripts in LabWindows application?

Thank you and have a nice Holidays,

What are you trying to do with an Expect script? It's not really something native to CVI, you may have more luck researching how to use Expect from C.

Well, I've got iBiquity exciter on local network and I am thinking to buy NI PXI system for HD-radio test automation. There are existing Expect scripts for that exciter here.  So I need a solution of using them from CVI application.

Maybe try libexpect. It might be a good place to get started.
