I've always been meaning to post this code library, once it is meaningfully "finished", but that may be a LONG time. So here is a very "beta", "lightly documented", and "less than entirely untested" version as of today.
Test Messenger library.zip
NOTE: newer version (2011) in a later post.
Contains a "Messenging" library and a set of examples that are up-to-date versions of the ones I posted here and in my Parallel Process thread. Dependancies are the OpenG toolkit (Data Tools, mostly) and the JKI statemachine, both available with VI Package Manager. LabVIEW 8.6.1.
Here is a a Class Diagram with labels:
There is a Palette Menu for the library, but if that doesn't work there is also a "Tree.vi" of the most useful VIs.
Any comments appreciated,
