Re: OS compatibility
1) Yes, as long as you have the appropriate LabVIEW development environment for the other OS and you aren't relying on platform-specific features such as ActiveX. Any CIN's/DLL's that aren't part of LabVIEW would obviously also need recompiling. 2) No, unless you can get it to work under some kind of emulator like SoftWindows on the Mac. To build an executable for a particular platform you need the LabVIEW development environment and Application Builder for that platform. Maybe someone else can help with the Linux and Embedded XP questions...
OS compatibility
A few questions about OS compatibility: 1) Does a VI developed on one OS (Windows for example) run on any of the other OS (Linux or Mac for example)? 2) Does an *.exe build with LabVIEW on one OS (Windows for example) run on any of the other OS (Linux or Mac for example)? A question about LabVIEW for Linux: There are many versions of Linux (I know the system requirements for LabVIEW for Linux) and I'm particularly interested in the small distributions; what are the minimum system requirements for running a vi or *.exe on linux? Or put differently; what linux-components does a VI or *.exe need to run on a Linux system? Windows embedded: Windows Embedded XP seems to be a scaled-down version of Windows XP Professional; will a VI or *.exe run on this OS? Thank you, Gerjo
Re: OS compatibility
And attendant question: Is it possible to run a LabView application without opening a panel window? It is very important from the point of view of GUI requirements on compact distributions.
