dependencies in lvproj

[jyang72211]

Hi all,

I have a lot of dependencies vis in my lvproj that have absolutely no relevelent to the project.  Why are they in there?  Do I have to remove them from the project one at a time?   Would there be any adverse effect?

Are you sure that they are not relevent?
Maybe you didn't directly use them during your coding,

but maybe some of the functions you used made calls to other LabVIEW VIs.

Yes, I am sure.

yik,

You can find the callers of a VI in a project by right-clicking it then selecting Find >> Callers.  This should reveal where the dependencies are being called in your project.

• Are the dependencies in your project listed under the "vi.lib" folder?  If so, it means they are built-in LabVIEW VIs that may be directly or indirectly called by your VIs.
• Are the dependencies members of libraries (.lvlib files)?  If a dependency is a member of a library, then all other members of that library will be listed in the dependencies, but they will not necessarily be loaded into memory.
