LV2015 VIP installation takes forever?

[RnDMonkey]

I'm trying to install OpenGDS_1.1.10(Master)_LV2015-32.vip into my LV2015 installation, but it appears to hang up after I hit "install". The install dialog just sits there with the progress bar at 0%, the busy indicator spinning, and the text "Busy ..." below. Is this normal? Should this installation take a very long time?

Well, it finally finished (not sure how long that took - 30 minutes?), then requested a recompile after restarting LabVIEW. It does make a noticeable impact on the LV load time, but everything seems to be resolved.

Version 1.1.10 was compiled with the beta version, and it looks like it requires a re-compilation when using the real 2015 version.

I think 1.1.12 is done using the real 2015 version.

BTW, I'm about to building 1.1.13, and it will be built with the real 2015 32 and 64 bit version.

The additions in this version are:

-Faster UML drawing

-GOOP4 Reference wire probe (when probing a GOOP4 reference wire you will see the attributes of the class)

I have found a bug in 1.1.1.0 running in LV2015.  When I clone a class the colors of the icon get messed up.  Here is an example.

Source class method icon before cloning:

Destination class method icon after cloning:

This did not happen in LV2014 using the GDS package from NI.

Any idea how to fix this?

Nice catch. I can reproduce this in version 1.1.13.

I'll work on it tonight 🙂

Thanks.  Let me know when there is a new beta and I can test it out.

I see 1.1.14 is up.  Is the fix included in this build?

[MikaelH]

Sure is, I thought I replied but it must have gotten lost.

1.1.14 is uploaded and ready for testing.

The problem was a VI that analyses the VI icon and tries to figure out what color the body text is using.

And since you had an icon there it picked up the wrong color.
