crelf Posted January 24, 2009 Report Share Posted January 24, 2009 I've openeed a project and got a broken arrow on a VI. Clicking on it opens the error list, but it's empty Any ideas? I know I've seen this mentioned before on LAVA, but I can't find it right now. PS: yes, "Tool Suite Explorer.vi" is my top level VI.EDIT: Nevermind - a LabVIEW restart fixed all Quote Link to comment
Michael Aivaliotis Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 For the record, I've seen that before too. Quote Link to comment

Does your project have LVOOP Classes? I've noticed that occasionally I have issues where a class wasn't saved properly so it has a missing member and other kinds of issues that sometime manifest themselves as an error that is basically un-explainable from the error dialog. I don't have a specific example at the moment or a way that I produced them -- also, I tend to develop in LV 8.2 still so some of the issues may have gone away. Quote Link to comment
jzoller Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 Happened for me as well, DLL pathing issue. Joe Z. Quote Link to comment
Antoine Chalons Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 I saw that too but only on LV 8.20 and a restart of LV fixed it. Never seen it in 8.5 neither 8.6.. Quote Link to comment

No LVOOP in this project, but you might have found the issue: I'd moved two type-def's on disk, and the opened the project - it told me that there was an issue and I should choose between where the project thought the files were and where it'd found them (I, of course, chose the latter). Then it looked like everything okay but I got a broken arrow and the empty error list. Then, on LabVIEW restart, all was golden (whew!)

Tia Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 I had that empty error list too, a few times. Copying the whole block diagram (CTRL + A), pasting it into a new empty VI (CTRL + V) and then opening the error list of that VI --> the errors appeared. Quote Link to comment
Rolf Kalbermatter Posted February 6, 2009 Report Share Posted February 6, 2009 Sometimes see it too. Usually a recompile (Ctrl - run button) of the VI fixes it. But I'm not using LVGOOP so this might be another source of this problem that might not be fixed with a recompile. Rolf Kalbermatter Quote Link to comment
