Can I pass an array into system exec.vi in LabVIEW?

I am trying to pass an array from LabVIEW into system exec.vi which will run a python script that takes the array as an argument. Is there any possible way to do this ? Are there ways to communicate LabVIEW with python ?



The LabVIEW version I'm using is strictly LabVIEW 2014.

  • How big is the array? The obvious options for small, medium and large arrays are (small) format the array into a string which you pass as an input parameter to the python script, e.g. "1, 2, 3, 4, 5", and read with sys.argv; (medium) format the array into a string which you pass to standard input of System Exec.vi and read in the Python script with one or more input commands; (large) write the array to a temporary file, pass the filename to the script and read it in the script.

Did you check Python Integration Toolkit for LabVIEW by Enthought? It is payed, but allows to call Python scripts from LabVIEW...
Regarding passing array as argument - when you'll check the toolkit, I guess there would be some examples of how to call scripts with arguments, so you could reuse it.



Also, you could try to follow the following description - Python - Command Line Arguments, and implement parsing of command-line arguments on Python script side. And the array will be passed in as string, part of system exec input string.

            How to change which sound is reproduced for terminal bell?

            Image
            3 Recently upgrade to 18.10 from 18.04, and using the terminal is becoming annoying: the new alert sound is a drip ( /usr/share/sounds/gnome/default/alerts/drip.ogg ), and the previous one is still located at ( /usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg ). My issue is that at the gnome-terminal, when autocompleting or pressing left BOTH sounds are reproduced, at the same time. I want to just have ubuntu/stereo/bell.ogg active, not both . At the moment I have been only able to reduce the volume of the alerts (but still both are played), or turn the alerts down (but I dislike both "solutions"). gnome-terminal 18.10 teminal-bell share | improve this question ...

            Title Spacing in Bjornstrup Chapter, Removing Chapter Number From Contents

            Image
            up vote 5 down vote favorite 2 I would like to make it so that the vertical space below the title of each chapter is the same when using the Bjornstrup package (i.e. so that the descenders do not affect the spacing - as shown by the red arrow in the picture below). I think I'm fairly happy with the spacing around "A chapter", so I'd really like titles without descenders (e.g. "Contents") to have the same vertical spacing as "A chapter" below the title. I would also like to remove the large "0" in the contents title.
