pda vi crashing

[GHernandez]

So i have an application made for windows, i basically copied and pasted the code to the pda module, and fixed whatever broke.. like charts, etc..
so then i compiled the pda, created an .exe and up'd it to the pda.. Now the pda app loads for a few secs then exists..

When is it exiting? While downloading the application? I have seen that a lot after a few downloads. Normally undocking and redocking should fix that problem. If not, do a soft reset on the pda. If that doesn't help, you could restart LV, but I doubt that is neccesary.

If the application exits while running on the pda, you will have to root out controls or functions that mess with the application (even though it runs fine on the PC). This means: start with simple components and expand. At some point you will run into the control or function that messes everything up. Sorry that I can't be more specific at this point.

I get the following error code& message

App failed. Error code
530312006
Bad Input argument to function

that error code sure doesn't help much

So you have done your soft reset etc. and the problem persists. It specifies that it may be a "bad function." Unfortunately I have experienced this myself as well. Certain operations you can get away with during development, but won't run on the pda. Again, the only thing I can advice is to refactor your app, make it into little independent modules and slowly expand your working application....until it fails. Programming the hard way..
