TCP/IP Bug in LV 8 PDA-Module


i2dx

Recommended Posts

Hi folks,

there is a big bug in the LV 8 PDA Module TCP/IP VIs:

all seems to work fine, if you only send e.g. a double value or an integer, like in the PDA Demo. BUT, if you try to send e.g. a flattened cluster with TCP/IP to the PDA your PDA will throw an exception (WinCE) or "hang" (WindowsMobile 5). Only the PDA-Module is affected, the Windows "module" is working fine ...

The bug has been sent to NI and is confirmed. (CAR is created ...).

If you are interested in the "Bug-demo", please send me an email or PM, the file is about one MB

sad but true

Is this any cluster or only specific kinds of clusters (for instance, clusters with strings)?

I have seen serious problems with clusters in previous PDA versions, but if I remember correctly I did flatten and send a cluster through a TCP connection successfully more than once.

Also, is this only on WM5 or also on 2003?

And last one - why is the demo 1 MB? Can't this be reproduced with less code?
