lv 8.5 bug or dsc 8.5 bug

I've created a dsc 8.5 project with thousands of shared variables distributed in 12 libraries. Every shared variables has the description parameter enabled (the description beeing a string meaning an index number in the system).
 A vi register the shared variables for event structure (data updated event). When the shared variable has data updated event the description of that shared variable is read through property node. In labview development system everything works fine, but when the application is built the property node return empty string every time for every shared variable.

Hi cosmin,
 
I get the error, "Error -1967362020 occurred at Property Node...The provided refnum is invalid," when I try to run it in an executable. Do you receive the same results? Thanks

This was reported to R&D (# 4FTC7ETM) for further investigation. A possible workaround is to use extra Shared Variables to pass around the Description information. Thanks for the feedback!

Thank you Mike!
 
You could not possibly be serious with that work-around (I hope).

Hi

the workaround for me is the use of variant datatype for shared variable and description as an attribute
