Hi,I have made a vi that I want to deploy on some PC.
I use the application builder (labview 6.1) and i select the Run-time
engine option.
But When I want To install it on a PC that never had a labview
software, I have problem. When I want toi run the exe file , windows
tell me that CVIRTE.DLL is missing.Why?
I thought thet the application builder will install all the necessary
files........
Dores this files is related to the real time engine?
If yes , why my application is calling that; because i don't use
Labview rte.How can I remove this error to allow me to install
properly my application?
Thanks all for the support you could give me.
Regards & thanks
Philippe

The app builder is pretty smart but it's not all knowing. There are a
lot things that you have to manually add to a install to get an app to
work. This includes device drivers such as NI-DAQ and NI-GPIB. In some
place in your program, you have a call to a function that requires the
LabWindows/CVI run-time engine. Two of the functions that require this
are the modified Inport/Outport for WinNT, Win2K, etc. If you are
using TesStand, then CVIRTE is required for that. You can either add
the DLL itself as a support file or add the separate CVI run-time
installer.

Thank you!
How can I find these functions, because my applicatiion will not use
NI-DAQ or NI-GPIB. I will only use serial port.
Secondly when i add the CVIRTE.dll as a support file , he ask me then
the folder cvirte\bin\....where there is cvirt4.rsc and cvirte.rsc
files.....
Normally , using only the serial port , i don't need the
labwindows/CVi run-time engine.....doesn'it?

Sorry that I didn't provide the entire list of files required. You can
get the entire CVI run-time engine <A

I'm curious though about the requirement for the run-time engine with
only a serial port being used. If you are using the VISA functions,
then you should be creating an installer that adds the VISA run-time
engine (LV 7 simplifies this) and if you're using the old serial
drivers, you should be adding the serpdrv file as a support file.
Could you post a small example of your program?
