I miss my Blackberry keyboard.

SIlly Pom - have you tried using swype yet?

Uh, it was actually even harder than that, because the string only had 1 byte...

I actually LOLed when I read that

You can limit your responsability by making the package to be installed on version = 9.0 instead of >=9.0... But then, you'd have to make a new package for 10.0 after you've verified the compatibility, and 11.0... and 12.0. I suggest you wait until it breaks.

You wouldn't have to make a totally new package - once the functionality is confirmed in the new version, then you'd just need to update the old package to support the new version, right? Does VIPM allow selection of different versions? Say, 2009 and 2010 only?

Me too

Oh dear - that wasn't quite what I was thinking :-)

But seriously, this is a pretty good flick (I like Liam Neeson) http://m.imdb.com/title/tt0362269

I had something similar recently, when I wanted to get the first byte from a string:

Ouch :-) That would have been even harder to find had the input consisted of only 2 bytes...

True, except I think he never found a 1 or an eight, right? So I guess it's the sextet that I truly understand. And we have come full circle.

So I'm not a fan of the new color scheme, but I do loved the features of the mobile version of the site! Most of my interaction with LAVA is from the RSS feed, then the site through IE, but now Ki can do almost anything {including admin stuff) on my Droid X2 :-)

What do you mean? I'm talking about the ten degrees on the Kinsey scale - what are you talking about?

I was actually responding more to Neil's comment about it still being "broken" in 2011.

Neil was replying to the question if the wire was still broken, not the feature.

Building on Tom O's post, you can then update MAX programmatically to add virtual channels linked to the found card - using this method separates your setup code from your application.

crelf: can you expand a little on what you mean?

Sure - you can save off portions of, or the whole, DAQ configuration in MAX (export to an *.nce file), then reimport it on the new system, either by using the MAX import feature, or programmatically in your LabVIEW code (there's a MAX API under the DAQmx palette somewhere). One relatively unknown feature is that importing *.nce files doesn't (have to) over write all of your MAX settings, so, if you have an architecture that reuqires it, you can load several *.nce files as you progress through your system setup (we use this technique in modular and scalable architectures that are build to run across several different hardware platforms).

There are 10 types of people in the world...

Is Skype more powerfull than LabVIEW?

No, skype is not more powerful than LabVIEW - skype is a video calling application, LabVIEW is a programming language. There can be no comparison.

My mistake - I saw they were exposed again in the recent upgrade, so I thought they were live.

That said, I'd get my old blog posts up again if the feature were available.

Seriously, I looked at tthis for 15 minutes before posting, then 10 seconds after posting I figure it out. every time.

You're welcome!

I have a composition book of descriptions and flowcharts and (pseudo-) state diagrams and UML models and K-maps and ... well, you get the idea. It helps me think through to a good implementation of the system and writing it down ensures that I'll remember (or have a good reference) to what I was thinking a month ago before something interrupted me.

Me too - I have an artist's sketch book, a 2B pencil and a good soft eraser

I wanna buy a personal automated medicator Lifting the beer mug manually is such old school...

I'm guessing your old school method tastes better...

How many here use OpenG in their commercial products?

We do.

Do those who do that include the appropriate EULA in the installer for their product?

Of course - it would be illegal not to.

What is the proper way to include OpenG in a released commercial product?

I don't understand the question.

You can find out more about BSD licensing (which is the license the majority - if not, all - of the OpenG components are releaed under) here: http://en.wikipedia....ki/BSD_licenses Each OpenG componens includes the license text, so you can know what you're up for when distributing it.

I am building an API in LabVIEW to use TestStand and create our own Operator Interface. I am now writing some related documentation (finishing my internship at the end of the mounth).

We've got one of those - you wanna buy it?

I'm working on a vision system that measures the characterisitcs of intra-ocuplar lens implants, a grand communications test framework/architecture for PDHC devices, and a suite of testers for personal automated medicators.

An event is an event and, while each event will have a timestamp, none are polled but all are received -- regardless of the action taken by the structure.

Exactly!

An unregistered event is STILL an event -- and can't NOT be an event.

I agree with that, as long as I can change it to:

An unhandled event is STILL an event -- and can't NOT be an event.

If I didn't know you better, I'd think you were trying to trick us

The World's Largest Independant LabVIEW Community^TM

My copy is signed by the author, which is no end of amusement to me as we'd never met yet when I won it at the BBQ in 2006.

You use the term "won" loosely.

I wonder if the IRS will see 1,000 LAVA/OpenG BBQ attendees, now that anyone can download a receipt

I've got one, too!

It's a great insomnia cure, or so I've been told...
