Linux 32Bit support by Keysight and National Instruments #5

Open ajundi opened 1 year ago

Officially both keysight and NI claim that Linux 32 bit is not supported but I need to confirm that at some point.

Carrying over comments from #4 . I ran a mock program that uses visa on a windows system with just national instruments visa installed. .\tasklist.exe /m /fi "imagename eq visa.exe" I got the following dlls loaded ntdll.dll, KERNEL32.DLL, KERNELBASE.dll, bdhkm64.dll, atcuf64.dll, ucrtbase.dll, VCRUNTIME140.dll, visa32.DLL, visa64.DLL, visaUtilities.dll, visaConfMgr.dll, RPCRT4.dll, ADVAPI32.dll, msvcrt.dll, sechost.dll, SHELL32.dll, msvcp_win.dll, USER32.dll, win32u.dll, GDI32.dll, gdi32full.dll, IMM32.DLL, windows.storage.dll, combase.dll, Wldp.dll, SHCORE.dll, shlwapi.dll, profapi.dll, nivisa64.dll, NiViSv64.dll, NiSpyLog.dll, ole32.dll, MSVCP140.dll, VCRUNTIME140_1.dll, NiVi488.dll, NiViAsrl.dll, SETUPAPI.dll, cfgmgr32.dll, bcrypt.dll, NiViEnet.dll, WS2_32.dll, WININET.dll, WSOCK32.dll, MSWSOCK.DLL, NiViEnetAsrl.dll, NiViPxi.dll, niqpxi.dll, NiViRpc.dll, nirpc.dll, NiViUsb.dll, WINUSB.DLL, NiViPpiP.dll, nipalu.dll, nipalut.dll, VERSION.dll, NiViPpiD.dll, kernel.appcore.dll, uxtheme.dll, DNSAPI.dll, IPHLPAPI.DLL, NSI.dll, nimdnsNSP.dll, nimdnsResponder.dll, rasadhlp.dll, fwpuclnt.dll

From those I was able to pick out the entry dll to national instruments visa on windows "nivisa64.dll". For linux, I found an AUR entry so I cloned it and built it git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/ni-visa.git makepkg -si Inside I found the libraries for 32 and 64. in lib and lib64. The name was the same though I haven't confirmed if 32 is supported yet.
