The LabVIEW map (LVM) file is an ASCII text file that the debug database generates. The debug database contains a map of all possible signals, breakpoints, controls, and indicators in the physical memory of the embedded target. The debug database also contains line numbers and information for each node on the block diagram. LabVIEW uses this information to map the current debugging position in a C file to a node on the block diagram. LabVIEW assigns each object an object ID. The LVM file resolves each object ID to a physical memory address on the target. Also, you can map physical memory addresses back to the associated LabVIEW object IDs for real-time interaction between LabVIEW and an embedded application.

Note  The LVM file described here is not the same text-based measurement file (.lvm) that is used in VIs for Windows, but the file extensions are the same.
