Description::
Purpose: copy a complete VI-Hierarchy of a Project to a new directory starting with the TopLevel VI ...
it works quite good with my projects, and i hope you will find it usefull. please report bugs, if you use it!
Features:
it builds the complete vi-hierarchy starting at the top-level vi
it extracts VIs which are bound to lvlibs when copying to the new folder
it replaces Project - prefixes (i work with project prefixes ...) eg. BMW_MTestV1_Main.vi --> NewProjectPrefix_Main.vi
drawbacks:
it does create lvlibs
it does not create lvproject files
the workaround for the drawbacks are 2 mouseclicks in the project explorer window, so I avoid the work right now ...
known issues:
if you have bound an vi to a lvlib, which does not longer exist, LabVIEW will force you to search the vi --> probably you have to press the "Ignore" butten very often
usage:
copy it to your project directory and call it from the tools-menu with "duplicate project ..."
