Returns a reference to a component, such as a library or GLL, you specify with a name string.
Use Open Component Reference to create a component reference for Open VI Reference.
Name of the component you want to reference.
Do not include the file extension in the name you enter.
Error conditions that occur before this node runs.
The node responds to this input according to standard error behavior.
Standard Error Behavior
Many nodes provide an error in input and an error out output so that the node can respond to and communicate errors that occur while code is running. The value of error in specifies whether an error occurred before the node runs. Most nodes respond to values of error in in a standard, predictable way.
Default: No error
A reference to a component. By default, this node uses the component reference of the component where the calling VI is located.
The node produces this output according to standard error behavior.
This node can return the following error codes.
-4503 | Some of the Application's GLLs contain incompatible or missing exports. Make sure all VIs and DLLs called by the application are exported in the GLL and have the expected connector pane configuration. Make sure all G Types are compatible. |
1571 | Packed project libraries are not supported. |
1753 or 1754 | The specified component was not found. Make sure the component name you specified is correct. |
1755 | One or more dependency GLL was not found. |
1757 | Cannot open an application component. Only library components are supported. |
1758 | Multiple components with the same name were found. |
