The LabVIEW project "CSPP_Core.lvproj" provides the CS++core system, some libraries, classes and actors.

Refer to https://github.com/HB-GSI/CSPP for CS++ project overview, details and documentation.

  • CS++ is based on native LabVIEW classes and the Actor Framework.
  • CS++ follows the KISS principle: "Keep It Smart & Simple"

The project GIT workflow contains five branches:

LabVIEW 2014 is the currently used development environment.

GIT Submodules

This package can be used as submodule.

  • Packages/CSPP_Core

Optional submodules

  • Packages/CSPP_DeviceBase: Definition of CS++Device ancestor classes
  • Packages/CSPP_IVI: Implementations of derived CS++Device classes using IVI driver
  • Packages/CSPP_DSC: Containing DSC Alarm- & Trend-Viewer
  • Packages/CSPP_DIM: Providing DIM for PV communication
  • Packages/CSPP_Syslog: Providing a Syslog based Message Handler
  • Packages/CSPP_Examples: Illustrating the usage of the above packages

Optional External Dependencies

Getting started:

  • Create a project specific copy of "CSPP_Core.lvproj"
    • or add CS++CoreContent.vi into your own LabVIEW project. You can drag the desired libraries from the dependencies into your virtual project folder structure.
  • CS++UserContents.vi; Include your project specific Content-VIs in a corresponding case of the conditional disable structure. This VI is included in the "CS++StartActor:Launch CS++StartActor.vi". This makes building an application convenient since the application builder can find all dependencies in the VI-Hierarchy.
  • You need to create your project specific ini-file, like "CSPP_Core.ini" containing samples of all classes and actors, etc.
  • You need to create and deploy your project specific shared Variable libraries.
    • Sample shared Variable libraries should be available on disk in the corresponding package folder.
  • Create a hard link to the custom error file:
    • cd <LabVIEW 2014>\user.lib\errors
    • mklink /h CS++Core-errors.txt Packages\CSPP_Core\CS++Core-errors.txt
  • Run your project specific "CS++Main.vi" or "CS++StartActor:Launch CS++StartActor.vi"

Known issues:

  • Actor-Frontpanel-Web-Publishing is not supported in the LabVIEW development environment, but from an executable. You may need to change the WebServer-Listener port in niwebserver.conf, e.g. Listen 8082. Be aware that VIs with '+' in their fully qualified name are not supported for unknown reason (LabVIEW-Bug?).
