Preparing Your Add-on for LabVIEW 2011

[RDR]

In addition to testing your product in the new LabVIEW 2011 Beta, this post will identify any changes required by partners in order to support the new version.

Changes to the Locations LabVIEW Searches for NI Example Finder Data Files

LabVIEW 2011 searches for NI Example Finder data files (.bin3) in fewer locations than previous versions of LabVIEW.  To ensure LabVIEW finds example VIs you create for the NI Example Finder, you must place the .bin3 files in one of the following directories:

• labview\examples\exbins — Previous versions of LabVIEW allowed you to place the .bin3 files anywhere within the examples directory.
• labview\instr.lib
• labview\user.lib

Yep, that's it for preparing your Add-ons to support LabVIEW 2011!
