Issue Details

I am currently using LabVIEW Professional in Windows, but I want my code to be compiled in .so to be used in Linux.
If I additionally purchase LabVIEW Professional for Linux OS, can I be able to create the .so file there?
Hence, how to create .so file using LabVIEW for Linux OS?

Solution

If you want to utilize .so file in Linux Desktop (not RT) environment, use LabVIEW Professional for Linux. 
The way how to build .so file is same as the way how to build .dll in Windows environment.
You can refer to the to the External Link attached at the Related Links for an example on how to do it.
