PPL / LVLIBP Build Spec Naming Conventions?

[Oli_Wachno]

Ooops... I don't see this in the properties dialog

I can try breaking this down.... need to spend some thoughts on how to do this properly...

Regarding the Generic_UI_Controller.lvlib: is this the only sublibrary?

If yes, it is possible that the build script automatically adds this entry. Only the PanelClasses.lvlib is marked as toplevel....

No it's not, there are three further ones...

Hi Norbert,

I think I have found the root cause (at least what I consider it to be)

I have compared both "malfunctioning" build specs to the working one

<Property Name="Destination[0].destName" Type="Str">PanelClasses.lvlibp</Property>
<Property Name="Destination[0].path" Type="Path">../Build/PanelClasses.lvlibp</Property>

<Property Name="Destination[0].destName" Type="Str">PanelClasses.lvlibp</Property>
<Property Name="Destination[0].path" Type="Path">../Build/Debug/Debug_PanelClasses.lvlibp_donotuse</Property>

If you manually extend the malfunctioning one to

<Property Name="Destination[0].path" Type="Path">../Build/Debug/PanelClasses.lvlibp</Property>

Everything works fine! So the question is, why this manual modification is neccessary....

[Norbert_B]

I assume that the _donotuse extension addition was added after finding that the build script doesn't succeed.

So the focus is on the filename itself: Debug_PanelClasses vs. PanelClasses.

So what i wonder is:

a) Is the failure connected to underscores?

b) Is it about the length of the filename and/or path?

Anyways, i am surprised that the configuration basically didn't create the 'working' filename/path at all. I can imagine that it's some kind of hickup regarding the first tab of the build script (location selection).

Just tried to remove the underscores and re-save the project. LabVIEW will not add the PanelClasses.lvlibp token required.

Anyway we can call it hickup or bug. I can live with it as I have a workaround now.

Thanks for your help.
