OpenG Builder - Call for Testers

[Jim K. <jk...@op...>]

  _____  

Hello, All
 
The OpenG Builder needs testers to put it through the paces and provide
feedback on User Interface features.  This is a really cool app that will
help you build better quality software products in LabVIEW.  If you have
already installed the OpenG Commander, then installing the OpenG Builder can
be done in just a few mouse clicks.  First, launch the commander, update
your package list from the internet, download and install the ogrsc_builder
(version 1.0.0alpha3) package.  There is a cool GUI, lots of documentation,
and it looks and feels similar to the LabVIEW Application Builder.  So, what
are you waiting for?

load> the OpenG Commander here
 
Read the OpenG Builder documentation  <http://builder.openg.org/> here

Hi Jim,

Just tried to download it and I got consistently error 6 in=20
"Copy in OGPM Add Package File to Cache__ogc.vi->OGPM Download Remote
Package__ogc.vi->OGC Main Window__ogc.vi". Not exactly sure what might
be the problem. The two paths seem legitimite to me with=20
"C:\Documents and Settings\Rolf\Local Settings\Temp\OGPDS8597963.ogp"
as temporary download file and "C:\Program Files\National =
Instruments\LabVIEW
6.1\resource\OpenG\Commander\db\cache\ogrsc_builder-1.0.0alpha3-1.ogp"
as intended target file.

Also the target path is only 115 chars long which should be safe below =
the
Windwos MAX_PATH length limit of 260 chars. The last element path is =
only
31 chars long which should be also fine.

I did a simple test VI with those paths and replacing the Copy function =
with
a Move function solved the problem. Seems like copy stumbles over =
something
in the path which Move does not have trouble with.

I use LabVIEW 6.1 for my OpenG work testing.

Well, I guess we can ignore my previous failure message. It turned out =
it
was a full system drive where the temporary directory was located.

Maybe a nice feature would be to check for enough disk space on the =
temporary
volume as the error 6 the LabVIEW Copy function produces (appaerently =
because it
does a temporary copy of some sort) is not very helpful.

In fact I found the problem because I tried to install a few packages =
and got
the same eror 6 on some write function in the ZIP extraction functions. =
This
brought me to the point of checking the disk status.
