Calling a VI by Reference, What does this mean "A subVI node only allows you to call a specific VI that is statically determined when you place the subVI node on the block diagram."

[DAVIDES]

I'm using "calling a vi by reference" and so far I have some issues when I build stand alone applications. Reading help a found following sentece

"A subVI node only allows you to call a specific VI that is statically determined when you place the subVI node on the block diagram."

What does it mean?

Using LabView 2011 on Windows 7

It's a rather complicated way of saying that when you place a subVI on a block diagram, that's the subVI that will be called. Contrast that with a call by reference, where you don't know at edit time which subVI will be called since that's determined by the reference at a run-time.

You problem is likely that either  A) you are forgetting to add the dynamically called vi to your build spec as an Always included file on the source files settings page; or B) you are using an absolute path that does not point to where the vi is in the build.

Hi Jeff, indeed I had those problems but I already solved. Now what is happening is a problem with Visa Write. My vi works fine but in stand alonewhen a subvi call VisaWrite function doesn't continue (Im using remote debugging) . I check Error signal with a probe after VisaWrite and simply doesn't execute. I will try to figure out what is happening, otherwise I will open another thread.

Hi  DAVIDES:

Could you post this question in a different thread?? This will help us with the documentation and the Forum users can answer quicker.

Could you share this section of your code so we can review what's happening??

Thanks and have a great day!!!
