JSON is always in UTF-8, and JSONtext will try and convert to your computer's character set automatically, so I don't think you need any of that stuff that has "UTF8". Try simply using the single function to convert to a 2D array of strings. However, by sure you are actually passing true JSON, with UTF8 encoding, not whatever your computer is using.

I checked that it works for me, in LabVIEW 2021. Does code this simple fail for you:

Does that DLL exist at the stated path?

Can you give an example VI showing the problem. It seems to work in teh current source code.

I think this is teh same issue as this: https://forums.ni.com/t5/JDP-Science-Tools/Cannot-Install-JDP-Science-Common-Utilities/m-p/4418396#M205 The SQLite package requires JDP Common Utilities, and that package seems to have a problem. Workaround is to download it and have VIPM install it directly, rather than try and get it from the Tools Network servers (it's a server issue, not a problem with the package itself). I'll attach it here as well. Try installing this and then retry installing SQLite. jdp_science_lib_common_utilities-1.4.1.18.vip

Does making it a typedef prevent the problem?

What was this error? I can't seem to reproduce it.

I will change the terminal name to "Format empty input as null" to prevent reading it as referring to JSON Strings in the input rather than the entire LabVIEW string. And I'l try and give a better description:

I confirmed the behaviour on my machine. It is that the Write doesn't pass the file reference through if there is an error in. Seems like a bug to me.

I just checked, and it doesn't close teh file reference, but it does pass out a null reference. The original reference is still valid. This is still unexpected behavior, though.

Yes, Queues don't make unnecessary copies, but User Events make two copies, so the EventDVRmessenger is just to work around that.

I have put some effort into improving the VI icons in Messenger Library, in hopes of making things clearer. I have particularly been trying to get rid of the magnifying glass icon, which was standing in for too many concepts. I have also tried to improve the Palettes by putting the standard VIs (that one would most commonly use) in the root-level palette: The 2.0 version also introduces Malleable API methods (the orange-coloured ones), which make code cleaner. If anyone could spare some time, it would help me to have feedback. Especially from people who have not used Messenger Library before, so I can get an idea if the key concepts come across. New 2.1.3 version is available here: https://forums.ni.com/t5/JDP-Science-Tools/New-icons-for-Messenger-Library/m-p/4412550#M192

I'm sorry, you posted just before I went on a full month of holiday and I never saw this. Do you still need help? Any further info?

Has anyone had a chance to use teh new version? At least as far as trying the new examples.

0.6.0 version now on VIPM: https://www.vipm.io/package/jdp_science_postgresql/ This involves significant improvements, as well as Examples that work with a public postgres server (and thus work without needing Postgres installed). I am hoping this is close to a 1.0 version.
