Thanks for the heads up! BTW, upgrade to Firefox 3.5. You're out of date already.

Communication between projects
Michael Aivaliotis replied to EOF's topic in Application Design & Architecture
Most of them did. It looks like this one fell through the cracks. I have all the files and I have a manual way of associating them to the original post, but it takes some effort. If anyone has a copy on their computer then please attach it to that thread. I will look later to see if I can find the file. -

Trust me, once you take a look at Crelf the mystery will fade immediately. -

Well, last time, you were on here telling everyone how LAVA search sucks! So now you're telling me to use the LAVA search? make up your mind! -

Sorry, where in my LabVIEW palette is this? Or do you mean network shared variables? -

Another goal should be to get an avatar and a profile picture. -
RSS Feed does not show username
Michael Aivaliotis replied to TobyD's topic in Site Feedback & Support
This issue is now resolved. RSS shows all posts and includes the author name. -
Ton, IPS is asking you to do one thing to see if this fixes the popup issue. I will quote them: So, can you try this and let me know?

View New Content page doesn't link to new posts
Michael Aivaliotis replied to Jim Kring's topic in Site Feedback & Support
IPS is going to file this as a bug, however, they are claiming that Jim might be the only one with this problem. So I'd like to get more feedback on this from the rest of the members. Is anyone else having problems jumping to the latest unread post similar to what Jim is experiencing? If so, what browser and version are you using? -
I love your avatar!

Use the LAVACR submission form. What to include inside the submission file: All your files must be included in a single zip file. You must include a readme.txt file inside the zip file. Here is a template: readme.txt Make sure you've included the the type of license you are using in the readme file. You must put the version number and LabVIEW version of your submission in the filename and Submission name. For example: "mysupercode_V120_LV86.zip" for file and "mysupercode ver1.2 LV8.6" for submission name Make sure you do not include LabVIEW toolkits or vi.lib files. OpenG packages can be included in the zip file if they are required dependancies. You can also just list the package dependancies (names with version) in the description. Do not include unpackaged OpenG code. Watch this short video on how to submit code to the LAVA code repository.

If you want to edit your submission (upload a replacement file or change description) then all you need to do is click on the Edit this file link on your submission download page. Note: currently there is abug which prevents this editing. This will be fixed soon. Future revisions of your files don't need to be re-approved but make sure you are still maintaining compliance since a member of the LAVA Certified assessor team will periodically review submissions in the LAVAcr for compliance. Additional: Do not include personal information or your email address in the submission form for description since this information will be displayed on the site. When the code is ready to be certified: When your code complies with all the CR requirements and you are ready to have it certified click on the “Report to Moderator” button found in the lower left of the page. Please state you user name and the title of the CR item to be reviewed. A Moderator will be assigned to you submission and reviewed. Any comment or approval will be placed in the submission's Disscussion fourm.

Note: Detailed submission procedure can be found here. LAVA Certified All LAVAcr content is LAVA Certified - a certification that insists on appropriate quality, support and usefulness. Members cannot simply upload any type of code to the LAVAcr - it must adhere to specific standards and rules before it is considered for inclusion. All code submitted is moderated by a group of well-respected LabVIEW professionals, all of whom are also respected premium members of LAVA. What is LAVA Certified? All LAVAcr submissions are assessed based on LAVA Certified criteria, including appropriateness for the LAVAcr environment. Although this may sound daunting, making sure your submissions are LAVA Certified is really just a matter of common sense and the standard practices we have all come to expect from competent LabVIEW developers. For code to become LAVA Certified, it must adhere to the following requirements: All custom VIs must include an appropriate level of documentation: including the use of the VI Documentation, free text on the Front Panel and/or Block Diagram. You don't need to include a novel, but please consider the average level of knowledge of a LabVIEW programmer that has never seen your code before. A verbose description is expected on the submission web page: this will form part of the page where your code will reside. Error handling must be appropriate: If your code has an error in cluster, then chain errors through your code to an error out cluster. If you're providing code that may be used as a subVI, then enclose all of your code in an error case structure. Your style does not need to be perfect: but consider those who will be trying to understand and perhaps modify your code. Keep crazy wiring to a minimum, try to line subVIs up, give VIs meaningful icons, use the 4-2-2-4 connector layout when you can, etc. All submissions must be versioned. Incomplete or secure code will not be accepted: including code with locked diagrams, missing diagrams or password protection. You must take reasonable steps to confirm that your code conforms to the functionality you submit it under. You are the primary support vehicle for your submitted code: and you must stand behind it. If another LAVA member has questions and/or comments, you must make yourself available within a reasonable amount of time to help out. Each portion of code will have a dedicated support thread, and other LAVA members may try to assist too, but you own the code, so it's your responsibility. LAVA Certified assessors will not alter your code to make it meet the requirements: If a submission does not meet the requirements when it is assessed, it will be returned to the member with a short description on the requirements it failed to address. Submissions must state the LabVIEW version it was created with: If you would like your code to be listed under more than one version of LabVIEW, then you must provide an extra copy in the appropriate version. You must confirm that your code works appropriately under each version of LabVIEW that you submit it for. LAVA Certified code hosted in the LAVAcr must be bound by a software license of your choosing. A description of the license used must be included in the readme file of the submission. You must also include your contact and ownership information. Currently, we only accept code licensed under an Open Source License. The submissions form currently supports the following licenses which you can chose from: BSD GNU Public Lesser GNU Public Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Creative Commons Attribution-No Derivative Works 3.0 Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial 3.0 Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike 3.0 Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 3.0 MIT Other (included with download) What is the Process for Submitting my Code? Code is submitted by filling out a dedicated web form here. This form requires some information from you (including a functionality description, image, desired distribution license), as well as a place to upload you code. More information about the submission procedure with a video can be found here. Once you have submitted the code, it will automatically get placed in the uncertified category and is immeadiatly available for download on LAVA. Once the review process is complete, you will receive notification whether you submission has been accepted and included in the certified LAVAcr categories, or if it has been denied based on the LAVA Certified requirements. How long does it take for my submitted code to be considered "certified"? That's an easy one: it depends The LAVA Certified assessment team are donating their time to this cause, so it may take a while (we aim to average next-business day). Try to find comfort in that good things come to those who wait. What Happens if my Code is Denied? We here at LAVA are people, just like you, and we don't want to exclude anyone, but making the LAVA Code Repository a free-for-all defeats the purpose of having a premium resource where other users can be confident that the contents are of a high quality. If one of the LAVAcr assessors deems that your submission doesn't meet all of the LAVA Certified requirements, then you will be emailed with a list of items that are considered erroneous. You are more than welcome to address the issues and resubmit the code. If you believe that your code is compliant with the LAVA Certified requirements and it is still rejected, please contact the assessor directly with your concerns.

LVOOP messaging scalibility
Michael Aivaliotis replied to Yair's topic in Object-Oriented Programming
That's very insightful. -
As mentioned in this topic. LAVA has a new feature that can be used to embed media into forum posts. We can add more media types but are not sure what you all need. Also, we would like you to help us formulate the replacement script for these new media types. Media Replacement Match: You can use {1}, {2}, etc as a variable replacements or any regex statement: Ex: http://www.test.com/23423/Match: http://www.test.com/{1}/ For YouTube: http://(|www.)youtube.com/watch?v={2} Media Replacement HTML You can use $1, $2, etc as a variable replacements or any regex statement. Ex: <a href="http://www.testm.com/$1/">$1</a>Result: <a href="http://www.testm.com/23423/">23423</a> For YouTube: <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="355" width="425" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/$2"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/$2"><param name="allowScriptAcess" value="sameDomain"><param name="quality" value="best"><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"><param name="scale" value="noScale"><param name="salign" value="TL"><param name="FlashVars" value="playerMode=embedded" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent"/></object> Let us know what media embed you want and what the replacement match and replacement HTML should be.

I've filed a support ticket with IPS on this. It appears to be a bug in the forums. Will let you know when it's resolved.

LVSpeak - tell LV what to do
Michael Aivaliotis replied to Norm Kirchner's topic in Code In-Development
I fixed the link, click on it again. -
Do you see an edit button on your submission page? I think there should be some file editing buttons on your settings panel but I think they're missing because of a bug. I've reported this to IPS to see if it can be fixed. Edit: I just saw Mark posted on the Admin forum that he's confirmed that there is no editing even on the submission page. We'll look into it some more and possibly file a bug report with IPS.
