Thanks everyone for the suggestions and comments. In the end, I used one of jgcode's tools. It's funny how, you don't realize the value of the LAVA code repository (or LAVA) until you run into a problem.

Actually this is not required anymore since VIPM 2010 already does a mass compile after installing packages now.

Thanks. I'll definitely dig into that.

I figured. Maybe someone can help? Edit: It seems like there is some hope by using the Search and Replace text feature that's built into LabVIEW. I think this will work for now.

The problem I have is that when I rename the class, I end up with object controls and indicators that contain the label of the original class. Is there an easy way, outside of manually renaming, to do this? Maybe someone has a tool out there? Not sure why LabVIEW doesn't do this for me. I can't be the only one with this problem.

There's no way that I know of. BTW, you should remove the changelog from the description since this is now built into the LAVA CR website. You can probably remove old versions of your submission as well, to clean things up.

This LAVA Code Repository Download is no longer distributed or supported by LAVA. Please follow this link for further support.

I think the "Like" feature is new! It is currently working for CR items due to the recent update to the CR pages. However, this feature will soon be migrated to the forum topics as well. So, stay tuned!

Yes. This is it.

Please Kudo this suggestion. I think it's a great idea and should be seriously investigated by NI for future implementation. Perhaps in 2012. I'd also like to see some programmatic support as well. Via a scripting property. Copy and paste properties. It should be smart so that it ignores incompatible properties instead of failing. http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW-Idea-Exchange/Format-Painter-for-FP-and-BD-objects-think-Word-Excel-format/idi-p/1001995

That's a good question Cat. There doesn't seem to be a search field for that in the Advanced Search for Members. I think it's an oversight. Since you're trying to kill some time. Go over to the Invision forums and make a feature suggestion: http://community.invisionpower.com/forum/298-ipboard/

I'm responding to user interface events using an event structure. However, some of those events are coming from a signaling property node. Is there any way from within the event structure to detect the difference between actual user generated events?

Just updated this. We now have LV 2010 version as an option.

I wanted to clarify some things (in case it wasn't clear). You can Apply VIPC configuration files using the Free VIPM Community Edition. You need VIPM Professional if you are creating VIPC files. So if developers are configuring their project for development then they can use the free VIPM community edition. VIPC files are configuration files. You have the option to include the actual package inside the VIPC file (the default mode) if you want but this is not mandatory. We recommend this for users configuring development environments on non-networked machines or using sneaker-net. If you don't include the packages inside the VIPC file, then only the package name is included. When VIPM tries to Apply the VIPC file (install\upgrade\downgrade all the packages defined in the configuration), it tries to look-up the packages on all known internal (corporate) repositories. Or external NI or JKI repositories. The package may even already be located on the local PC cache as well. Once the packages are located, they are installed as normal. Of course you can also have a combination of the above. Some packages inside the VIPC and others included only by reference.
