National Instruments Corporation 7-7 LabWindows/CVI Programmer Reference Manual
cvidir (Windows Only)
Under Windows 95/NT, cvidir specifies the location of the directory that contains the bin
and fonts subdirectories that the Run-time Engine requires. This Registry entry is necessary
to enable the Windows 95/NT Run-time Engine DLL to load. When you install the
LabWindows/CVI Run-time Engine under Windows 95/NT, the installation program places
the bin and fonts subdirectories in the cvirte directory under the Windows system
directory. The installation program also creates the cvidir entry in the Registry.
For Windows 3.1, set the cvidir option only if the Run-time Engine resides in a directory
other than the directory that contains the bin and fonts subdirectories. Set it to the directory
that contains the bin and fonts subdirectories.
useDefaultTimer (Windows Only)
The LabWindows/CVI Run-time Engine recognizes the UseDefaultTimer option under
Windows platforms. It has the same effect as in the LabWindows/CVI development
environment. Refer to Chapter 1, Configuring LabWindows/CVI, in the LabWindows/CVI
User Manual, for more information on useDefaultTimer.
DSTRules
The LabWindows/CVI Run-time Engine recognizes the DSTRules option. It has the same
effect as in the LabWindows/CVI development environment. Refer to Chapter 1, Configuring
LabWindows/CVI, in the LabWindows/CVI User Manual, for more information
on DSTRules.
UNIX Options
The LabWindows/CVI Run-time Engine recognizes the activate, appFont, dialogFont,
editorFont, menuFont, messageBoxFont, useDefaultColors, useMetaKey, and
warpMouseOverDialogBoxes options under UNIX platforms. They have the same effect
as in the LabWindows/CVI development environment. Refer to Chapter 1, Configuring
LabWindows/CVI, in the LabWindows/CVI User Manual, for more information on these
options.
