  • LabWindows/CVI Runtime

Issue Details

I am planning to upgrade my LabWindows™/CVI to version 2020 f3, but I currently have applications from 2017 that I do not intend to update. Is it possible to run my 2017 version code using the LabWindows™/CVI 2020 Run Time Engine?

Solution

Yes. Applications developed with earlier LabWindows™/CVI versions can still be used with the LabWindows™/CVI Run-Time Engine due to its backward compatibility.
