LabVIEW CLI can't execute Get Build Specification Version (path).vi

[MangeshD]

We need to use the LabVIEW CLI scripting to access version information from build specification in *.lvproj.

There are Get and Set version information VIs available for build specifications and I am trying to run these VIs (from CLI) to access the build version and set the build version.

I am using LabVIEW CLI 2018 to perform action as RUN VI.

There is no specific information is given on how the order of connector pane terminals should be for constructing a command.So, I reffered the context help for the order information and constructed the command.

 

"LabVIEWCLI -OperationName RunVI -VIPath "C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2018\vi.lib\AppBuilder\AB_API_Simple\Get Build Specification Version (path).vi" "My Computer" <Build Specification Name> <Project Path> -PortNumber  <PORT>"

This results in an error

The other way I tried

"LabVIEWCLI -OperationName RunVI -VIPath "C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\LabVIEW 2018\vi.lib\AppBuilder\AB_API_Simple\Get Build Specification Version (path).vi" <Project Path> <Build Specification Name> "My Computer" -PortNumber  <PORT>"

But this also results in same error.

Sample LabVIEW project and CLI command is added below.

From the LabVIEWCLI documentation, it appears you need to package the VI you wish to run in a wrapper that has a specific connector pane:
