Wiebe, You are absolutely correct. The command line options are the same under Linux as windows.
You could then write a shell script that will launch labview with a particular VI. Or, you could compile a C/C++ program that calls "exec" to launch labview, and again specify an optional VI argument. And, VI server works the same under LabVIEW for Linux as it does for windows. But, in order for the VI server to launch a VI, LabVIEW already has to be running :) This means you could create a VI that uses VI server, and compile that VI into an executable. You can then run the resulting executable which will be made up of the VI that uses VI server. But your question is a little bit vague. What exactly is your goal after "launching LabVIEW." You said that you want "an application to launch LabVIEW." Which application? Do you have the source code? What is it written in? -- David Duffey
