Installing LabVIEW runtime application on CD-ROM or DVD?

[orbarrett]

Hello all,

I've developed a LabVIEW demo app that I'd like to show people who don't necessarily have LV installed on their computer.  It would be really cool if the LV application builder/installer could be used to package an application and the LV run-time engine on a CD-ROM or DVD (so the user could run the LabVIEW app right off the disk and would not have to install the demo on his/her hard disk).  Anyone done this sort of thing before?

Thank you very much!

You will have to have at least the runtime engine on the target machine.

Hi Oliver:

I don't believe there is any way to run the Run-Time Engine off of the CD.  The only thing I can see working at all like this is making the CD a LiveCD with the RTE and your application already loaded.

I really think your best best is just to have users install the RTE off of the CD and run the application.
