Build targetDetermines the build target. Select from Application (EXE) or Shared Library (DLL).
Target file nameDetermines the name for the application or shared library you build. Windows Applications must have a .exe extension, and shared libraries must have a .dll extension.
Destination directoryDetermines the location to save the application or shared library you build. You can enter a path or use the Browse button to navigate to the location.
Support file directoryDetermines the location to save the support files for the application or shared library you build. By default, the path is the same as the path that appears in the Destination directory field with a data subdirectory appended. You can enter in a path or use the Browse button to navigate to the location.
Build OptionsDetermines whether to include all your VIs in a single executable or shared library or to create a smaller executable or shared library with subVIs stored in a separate VI library.
Single target file containing all VIs (Default)Embeds all VIs into a single file. If your application or shared library contains many VIs, this file might be quite large.
Small target file with external files for subVIsEmbeds the top-level or exported VIs and any dynamic VIs in the executable or shared library. The subVIs for the top-level and dynamic VIs are stored in a single VI library. The resulting file is smaller than a single file that contains all VIs.
Do not compress target file (faster load on slow machines)By default, applications or shared libraries you build are compressed by 30 percent and decompressed at run time. If the target computer has a processor speed of 120 MHz or less, decompression increases the load time by approximately 10 percent. You can improve the load time by selecting this option. However, uncompressed applications and shared libraries can become quite large.
