.uir of Labwindows 2009 incompatible with 6.0

[Sincrono]

I'd like to know a good way of ¿migrating? a program developed in labwindows 2009 to run with the classical 6.0 version. In my case the 6.0 version told me that there was a problem with the user interface.

Thanks

Hi,

to my knowledge you can use the 'save as' function down to version 7.1, that's what CVI2010 offers. You could check if it is different for CVI2009. So in a first step I would save the UI as oldest version as possible, this will keep the changes to a minimum.

If you still get errors, you could try to save the (7.1) UI as text file (TUI), allowing for manual inspection. You could then check line by line if the parameter is supported... It's not really convenient, but should work.

As far as I know, you can't open the .uir anymore with CVI 6.0 if you saved them with CVI 2009 because they're not compatible.

But if you compile the application with CVI 6.0 (without changing the uir) you can run the application simply installing the CVI 2009 RTE (that is fully backward compatible).

How can I install just the cvi2009 RTE?

Install latest version of CVI runtime engine. It is backwards compatile all the way upt to 6.0.
