Can I use the labview run-time engine 2010 with my LV 2012 program?

Hi all,

I will receive the new Labview Developer Suite 2012 DS2 in a few days and

I am wondering if it is possible to run LV2012 programs on the LV run-time engine 2010 or is it necessary to update all my clients from run-time engine 2010 to 2012?

It is essential to have the run time engine corresponding to the LV version in which the code is developed.

if you are going to distribute the new code saved in LV2012, you will also need the LV2012 run time engine.

Hi Benjamin,

You will not be able to use the LabVIEW 2010 run-time engine with LabVIEW 2012 applications.  Versions of run-time engines need to correspond with the version of LabVIEW that you have installed.

The following links direct you to our download pages for the run-time engine:

The 32-Bit Run-Time Engine can be downloaded from our website as can the 64-Bit Run-Time Engine, depending on which version of operating system you, use by clicking the link under "Standard Download".

Hope this helps.

I quess I have to install the new LV 2012 DS parallel to the old one.
