打包移植？？

[东方]

在使用LabVIEW7.1生成.exe文件中遇到一些问题，特请教：

1.      生成作移植用，不知道该选哪些.dll文件？以及在安装文件的哪选？

2.      板卡PCI-6221的驱动可以一起打包？如可以，该如何一起打包？（Install Shield 做）

do you want to build the executable for deployment? If so, it is relatively easy using NI's application builder to build the executable, make sure you select include runtime engine (check the options you need). Application builder can be started from Tools menu, however, it is not free, so if it is not there then you need to get it from NI.

Normally you need to install NI-DAQ for the driver. Application builder does not include the drivers.

yes, and lv 7.1 can to installer or exe with daqmx driver included.  But lv 8 build specification can do, which can include labview run-time engine and daqmx driver when to create installer.

The progeam is just several K,but after Application Builder ,there are about 32.8 MB.I don't why it's so big(not include the driver or DAQmx).

How can I make it be less big?

when you build the executable, in the installation tab there is an "Advanced" button, click to get into that screen, in it it shows the checkbox for runtime engine. when it is checked, by default all the components will be included, which you probably don't need. uncheck the ones you don't need and save the script, and build installer. it should be smaller.

also, once the installation files are generated, these files are normally created:
data.cab
install.msi

setup.ini
instmsi.exe
instmsiw.exe
setup.exe

Only the first two files are really needed by the OS. If the build does not need runtime engine then the package should be even smaller.
