Are you seriously expecting anyone to install a random executable on their system from an unknown publisher, provided by an anonymous person on the web, where one can't even get a proper link in Google to the actual company page? Sorry, but anyone doing that should not be allowed near 5m of a computer system!

Absolutely echo what Shaun says. Nobody banned them. But most who tried to use them have after some more or less short time run from them, with many hairs ripped out of their head, a few nervous tics from to much caffeine consume and swearing to never try them again. The idea is not really bad and if you are willing to suffer through it you can make pretty impressive things with them, but the execution of that idea is anything but ideal and feels in many places like a half thought out idea that was eventually abandoned when it was kind of working but before it was a really easily usable feature.

They aren't banned. They are just very hard to debug when they don't work and have some unintuitive behaviours. I have Toolbar and Tab pages XControls that I use all the time and there is a markup string xcontrol here. If you are a real glutton for punishment you can play with xnodes too

We use the MPSSE.dll LABview driver from Benoit. We are trying the i2c read 1 byte and multi bytes. We expect ack for all bytes except the last byte with nak. During read, we understand that the I2C master drives the ack/nak. However, ack and nak happens randomly. Any body have any suggestions Thank you Dan

I think I have this fixed. Tried a compiled version of the transport library; this worked without issue. I made the timeout changes, which did not seem to have an impact on performance. I then recompiled everything (the server-side code is used in multiple applications on the system); the delay I was seeing with the one message/response went to expected amounts in tests. I've been waiting to test this with the whole system up and going; unfortunately, we've been battling drive issues that are stopping everything else. Can't definitively say it's fixed. Can't point to a smoking gun. I'm appreciating this forum and the people on it right now.
