Maybe not crash, but the program locks up hard. What I'm doing is pretty simple. I write some non-ASCII string(a record) to file (using write to file function) and appending new strings to file on the fly. This works fine. The problem is when I use the read from file function. The program locks, I get a "not enough memory to complete operation" message, and I usually have to hit the pwer button and re-start the computer. This is a very simple operation and should not be giving me this much grief. I just upgraded to Labview version 7.0 from 6.1. Does anyone know what's going on with this or had it happen to them. The codes pretty small and I can make it avcailable for anyone who wants to take a look. Thanks
I think you should post your code and an example of the file. The "not enough memory" could have several causes - opening file references repeatedly without closing, build array, concantenate strings, local variables, .etc.
Hi Dennis, Attached is the code. It's 3 VI's in a library. The problem is not a crash, when Read from File executes, it returns error# 4, eof found. Please let me know if you have any dificulty with the code or questions, or if it works for you.
You've specified the byte stream type to be strings but you are writing non-ascii to the file so the file read doesn't see anything until EOF. If you change the byte stream type to U8, then it will read a value of 5 back and this matches what your example file write does.
