labview mimic serial port or localhost server

[macfernan]

Hi all 

Im after running into a problem 

I have a labview vi that generates the message 

I want to get this message to an application running on my pc,

the application can only establish serial or network connections

is there any way labview can mimic a localhost server or serial port?

thanks

LabVIEW can do either. If you could provide a bit more information it might be easier to give you advice. As a side note, my preference is to use TCP whenever possible. Serial works well using VISA. There are examples of both in the examples that ship with LabVIEW. You can find them on the toolbar at Help->Find Examples...

This is my program

in the top left hand corner of the while loop is my interpretation of  mimicking a web server with a port of 127.0.0.1:2000

and writing data too it continuously

its not working by the way was just hoping someone could point out my errors

thanks for the help 

turned out it was working all along

it was just a case of closing the application and reopening it  

thanks
