Configuration Option Descriptions
The Run-time Engine recognizes various configuration options. Under Windows platforms,
the installation program for the Run-time Engine automatically sets the required
configuration options for you.
Refer to the How to Set the Configuration Options discussion in Chapter 1, Configuring
LabWindows/CVI, of the LabWindows/CVI User Manual for detailed instructions on how to
manually set configuration options on each platform for the LabWindows/CVI development
environment. Under UNIX, you set the Run-time Engine configuration options in the same
manner. Under Windows, you set the Run-time Engine configuration options in a similar
manner, but with the following differences:
• Under Windows 95/NT, set the configuration options in the Registry under the
following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\National Instruments
\CVI Run-Time Engine\cvirte
• Under Windows 3.1, set the configuration options in the [cvirt
n
] section of the
win.ini file, where
n
is the version of the Run-time Engine.
Note
Under UNIX, changes to options do not take effect until you restart your X server
or issue the
xrdb .Xdefaults command.

(Windows 3.1 Only)
Because executables load and execute the Run-time Engine under Windows 3.1, they must be
able to locate the Run-time Engine on the hard disk. Under Windows 3.1, executables find the
Run-time Engine using
cvirt
n
, where
n
is the version number of the Run-time Engine,
configuration option.
Assign the pathname of the Run-time Engine executable file to the
cvirt
n
option in the
[cvirt
n
] section of win.ini, as in the following example:
[cvirt5]
cvrt5=c:\windows\system\cvirt5\cvirt5.exe
