labview system exec slow on launching octave

[alpony01]

Hi everyone,i am using a v.i which makes more than one call to  octave through system Exec.vi,however the actual launching of octave seems to take some time and therefore increasing the total time it takes to execute this v.i,,,does anyone know of anyways of making the launching of octave when called by labview faster?

Hi,

first of all, you are talking about GNU Octave programm, right? Of course, the easier way is the System Exec.vi:

Using this VI is like using command line and of course it's possible to have some delay before the programm is launched. Another way i through activex, but i don't know if it's possibile for Octave Programm. Here some extra info:

I hope it is useful
