Veristand system definition file

Solved!
Go to solution

Greetings! I am trying to customize the Veristand sysytem definition file. In system definition file while adding simulation models, we need to pass an absolute path of the dll. Is there any way by which i can modify it to accept abbsolute paths. Also , i want to know is there any VI  in background (runtime) when the screen for adding the simulation model runs? If yes where does it resides.

 

If i look into the XML file of the system definition , which shows an absolute path pointing to models

Property Name="DLL Path">
         <DependentFile Type="Absolute" Path="C:\Subversion\HEXOA\DragonG3\trunk\4-SystemTest\VeriStandModels\DLL\SwitchedPower.dll">

 

Can i modify this ? How can i implement a relative path here?

You will always specify the absolute path to the model in that configuration dialog. However, when you save the system definition, if the model DLL path is relative to any known location (the system definition file, the public documents folder, etc.), it will be saved in the system definition file as relative to those locations.
