CITATION(Ben @ Mar 27 2007, 02:48 PM) I'm not trying to break any record... just to find out how not to suck up all the memory CITATION(Ben @ Mar 27 2007, 02:48 PM) Is it LV or the DB that is eating up memeory? Ben When I look at the windows task manager, it is the virtual memory taken by my exe (made with LV 7.1.1) that keeps increasing.

Flatten to and Unflatten From String also work nicely with enums... For example, sending messages between systems or processes. http://forums.lavag.org/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=5313

CITATION(alukindo @ Mar 27 2007, 06:48 AM) I now have the lastest ADO/MDAC and I added the modifications you suggested at "open connection". the issue remain the same. The memory keeps increasing... :headbang:

Thanks a lot for your post Anthony, I will upgrade the ADO (I currently have 2.7) and do some more testing. Just to keep everyone involved in this thread updated, I tested my "write to DB" VIs on a new computer first with MS SQL server 2000 and then with 2005 ; in both cases the memory used by the LabVIEW exe keeps increasing of about 4bytes at each write. The code I tested is a very small exe (see source attached), as you can see at each loop iteration, I : - open connection to DB using a *.udl file - write a couple data (floats) - close the connection to DB I have an NI car number : 521 262 As I said earlier I can't spend much time on this issue so I'll send this back to NI and demand an example that works without sucking up all the memory. Many thanks to everyone involved in this thread.

CITATION(lraynal @ Mar 23 2007, 09:16 AM) I also hate being traced by "big brother" in general. But here on LAVA, I come freely with nothing to hide. People can know how many time I spent on which part of the forum ? And then ? Appart from my boss, maybe the LAVA admin and of course that "big brother" who you be interested in knowing that ? As you said, as long as my weekly job is done by friday night, what's the matter ? This is an open community, I don't think anybody here is going to trace you, and if you don't want to fell traced, then sign in with different fancy accounts. "Je sais maman, je suis paranoïaque.

I remember driving from my hometown in Western New York to Florida as a kid, and we stopped into a Krystals. My mom and dad were confused by the tiny burgers. Mom went to the suggestion box, but there were no suggestion cards left. She said out loud "People are leaving so hungry, they must eat the cards!" People waiting in line laughed...

I just saw this chair on an HGTV program this weekend! It was described as "for the kids". I always knew Ben was a kid at heart (Edit: Just did a quick search, and these are not priced for kids; at least mine ~$600 US. When it comes to your health and ability to support those kids, its certainly acceptable.)

This spam posting on the VIPM forum makes me wonder if its better to have a smaller or a larger package... http://forums.jkisoft.com/index.php?showto...2entry452 I'm sure it will be deleted as spam at some point, so here's a picture http://forums.lavag.org/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=5211 Sorry for the sophomoric humor, its early and I've only had my first sip of coffee...

QUOTE(pallen @ Jun 22 2006, 03:10 PM) Hi, Hopefully you're still reading this thread... Can any of you share how to actually install the runtime engine under DSL? Since the rte is distributed in rpm's, I'm having a hard time installing them under DSL. DSL doesn't support rpm's, and I've tried some scripts (I recall rpm2cpio), but without success. I'm sure it's easy for a Linux guru... Regards, Wiebe.

I found the solution... I was linking my task constant (task created in the project) directly to a "Start task" VI... Now I link it to the "Create task" VI @ "copy task" input and then I start the task.

Hi all, We have different ways to create DAQmx tasks : - in MAX, - in the project (*.lvproj), - or directly in the LV code. I use to do it in the LV code and it was working fine. For a new project I created my DAQmx tasks in the project because I thought that was the right way to do it... I now doubt and need some help. Indeed, if I run the LabVIEW code it works as expected, and when I create an exe I get an error that says'm refering to a task that does not exist. Why is that ? Is there some settings to add in the build specs ? Thanks for any help. PS : I know I could create my tasks in MAX and would then have to export the MAX config (*.nce), but I'd like to have everything in the exe, just like when the tasks are created in the LV code.

QUOTE(dlawer @ Mar 15 2007, 09:49 AM) Can't you use just the rs232 vi's (visa) to send and receive strings (SMS)?

I've heard people say "I wouldn't wipe my @$ with that code", but with this thing, maybe they could! :laugh: I see a couple of Lego bricks in there, maybe there is some RCX code written in LabVIEW in there too. An unclosed control reference might explain the chunk that falls off on the right at the end of the clip....

CITATION(thomas2609 @ Mar 13 2007, 11:26 AM) I think JFM is right... x= 0:0.1:1 does work om my LabVIEW 8.0.1 Go to Tools >> Options >> Front Panel >> on the second line you can enable/disable "use localized decimal separator". the default setting depends on your Windows settings.

When comes the I-VIEW?
