Hi guys How do you measure execution times/performance? I have 3 favourites. The Profiler (Profile Performance and Memory) Desktop Execution Trace toolkit (it give um timing accuracy very nice ) And a Timing Probe (see attached VIs) How do you do it? Timing Probe (Error).vi TimingProbe_Kernel.vi Cheers, Mike

Here's a good starting point: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/7170

The message that only tells me to get on ni.com to get information about some error. This isn't helpful for those of us who don't run connected to the Internet.

Agreed. Other than Homer Simpson I can not think of a better icon than the question mark. But the question mark sort of implied (to me at least) that something was wrong. Maybe this?

I have riden far to many cars to their death and don't want to do so again. I am the proverbial "Old man in a hat". Dismissing the one occation involving a head on collision with a 16 year old driver trying to beat the midnight deadline, all of my accident occured in traffic that involved a lot of stoping and starting. I have since changed my driving habits and my insurance company apreciates it. I would like to concider for a moment "what would traffic flow look like if it was under computer control and optimized?" I answer that question by envisioning a smooth flow of traffic with no stops and goes. So when I put on my hat and get behind the wheel I drive my vehicle as if it being coordinated with all others and leeve plenty of room ahed of me to let people change lanes as they wish without forcing me to slam on the brakes and putting the bike rider behind me in jeopardy. If I can get through a traffic jam without ever coming to a halt, I concider it a win. Under non-jam conditions I do try to adhere to the speed limit (I calibrate my spedometer at evry one of those "Your spped was" signs ) and use the left lane sparingly. But if I am in the process of passing a vehicle and I am approached from behind at high speed by another while doing so, they will just have to wait until I am back in the right lane since I can ignore long queues with the best of them. so what is the end of it all? If we are starting out on a long road trip together, I suggest y'all depart before me. I'll only p$#% you off. Games old men play while driving: Can I make my brakes last longer than my mechanic predicts? Can I avoid using gas when going down hill? Can I keep that uncovered cup of coffee from spilling on the way to work? Can I keep the section of roadway I am driving out of the local traffic reports? For those of you that a happy when you see me slip back into the right lane: Go ahead have a good time. I'll do my best to stay out your way. Ben

Creating a class for the LV equivalent of a #define statement seems like overkill to me, but in general immutable objects = bee's knees. I use them all the time for various data classes and anywhere I want write-once, read-many functionality.

Very cool - I like this very much so I will post it here:

Anything that can be undone should not have a dialog, period. Get rid of it altogether. No checkboxes or ini settings.
