Using a Labview application on a Blackberry

[z2830than]

I am looking to explore using Labview with a Blackberry device. What kind of driver/emmulator is recommended with communicating with the device? Are there any issues that are common when interfacing with a Blackberry (other than with Windows Mobile)? The program I built is a very simple timestamp program, so memory useage and size is very small.

Any advice or opinion would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Hi Jody,

Are you looking to use LabVIEW on the Blackberry or communicate with a Blackberry app from LabVIEW?  I don't believe there's a way of using a LabVIEW program on a Blackberry since the Mobile Module only supports Windows CE devices.

What I am looking to do is take a program that I built , build it into an executable (on my PC), and transfer the application to a Blackberry.

There is not currently a way to deploy LabVIEW code to a Blackberry. Currently LabVIEW code can be directly deployed on Windows, Mac, Linux*, Real Time. In addition LabVIEW supports C code generation mode for several mobile platforms, which as of LabVIEW 2009 include: Pocket PC 2003, Windows Mobile 5.0, Windows Mobile 6.0. as well as certain embedded targets like ARM and Blackfin.

Now that being said, just because we cannot deploy LabVIEW code on the device does not mean you can't use it with LabVIEW. You can either write your own custom app or use a pre configured app that uses generic network protocols (example)

Let me know if you have other questions.
