It seems like almost yesterday when I was the only person answering questions. I think LAVA is progressing well and I hope that more members surpass me in the number of posts...

Oh, OK. So I guess I should just send an email to NI and ask for a Licence? Great, I'll do that. Gee, I didn't think it would be so easy.
-
Just ask NI for a Scripting Licence...
Ok, let's start the rumour mill...
What @#$%& scripting licence?

Hey guys and gals. This thread is the beginning of a potentially long thread. Here, whenever the need arises, I will select a LAVA member who I feel has been a significant contributor and or helper.
I think it's fitting to start this thread by spotlighting a member who has helped me quit a bit over the last few months: crelf. Chris has helped a lot in supporting the code repository by reviewing code submissions. He has also posted an astounding number of posts. I think he will surpass me as the number one poster pretty soon. Keep up the good work!!

Well, perhaps a future enahancement to this VI would be to have an additional output boolean: "not empty path". This way, a simple OR function on our part can provide the complete functionality most commonly desired in test systems these days. An empty path is usually not desirable and can cause systems to throw errors most of the time.
BTW, I didn't intend that my comment be an attack. It's just that it's really really wierd to see so many OpenG functions being duplicated within LV8.x.x. Perhaps it's just that NI's LV development team is noticing limitations in the current feature set just like we are.
-
It's nice to see that NI is "borrowing" some ideas from the community and including some functionality already available from OpenG. However, please do it right...
The function located here:
C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 8.2\vi.lib\utility\libraryn.llb\Check if File or Folder Exists.vi
Returns a value of TRUE when fed an empty path.

I thought I'd posted it before, but I did a LAVA search on "+image +web +datasocket" and it didn't find it - that suggests to me that the search function needs work or I'm using it incorrectly, as all my search terms were in the title.
You should have tried: +image +web +Datascoket (spelling).
However just plain "Datasocket" works too.

You could have just pointed them to this link:

Keep dreaming.A full blown .mnu editor!!!!Ton

In case you're still interested...

I always assumed this was the case in the past. So this means you will implement what everybody thought already happened? Sounds like a plan!The only change would be constants that are linked to strict typedefs updating at the same time that front panel instances update. -

I'm not savy enough to know how to add a picture of my code but ...

Hey, no skin off my back. That's why there are spell checkers and you can edit your post on LAVA for at least 24hrs after your post.

I think this is true for emails but not true for web publishing. Oh, wait a minute; you didn't realize you were publishing? Well, you are. As we speak, several websites are sucking in the LAVA RSS feed and displaying the posts on there front page. Your message is crawled by Google and Yahoo on a weekly basis and added to the archive of information which will be scanned by future researchers looking for help on LabVIEW programming or other strange keywords. Once it's out there baby, it's permanent. For the world to see.This is less an indication of disrespect and more an indication of the nature of the beast - a text which is written fast and will often only be read once, so it's not always perfect. -
You mean you didn't go to Disneyland Paris? Ah, shame.

I've been looking around at other forums to see how they handle homework hustlers. Apparently we are VERY generous here. On other sites, these types of questions are discarded to the trash and the members scolded and sometimes banned. I think our approach is a little better. At least we give them a chance to redeem themselves. As far as PM, or IM. That's a definite no-no and if a member feels they're being harassed in this way, let me know and I'll take care of it.

Ya, Google's really improving their satellite imagery.This is cool! :thumbup:PJM

No offense but in the world of LabVIEW applications/systems, my opinion is that NI has a limited view of what real LabVIEW applications look like. I realize that you qualified your statement but I was also offended. There are many reason why you or other NI staff will never see good code. One of them is that a lot of developers including myself simply don't trust NI. You only see what we let you see. :ninja: .Most LV users are not programmers by education, and, honestly, the VIs that I see reflect that. I'll grant that most of the user VIs that I see are in bug reports, and I rarely see entire systems, so I may not have a good view, but some of the progrsamming choices that I see are clearly "something that works" and not "the right way to do it." I can see this being true of many fields -- the self-taught person is sharp, clearly able to produce, but perhaps has never seen some of the standard ways of doing things, and thus ends up producing systems that are hard for others to use/modify. -
All visitors regardless. From about 2 weeks ago.What are the terms? Visitors? Registered Users? Active users? Users per time period? Page hits per time period? ...BTW, hooovahh, you need to shrink your signature. When it's bigger than your post contents then that's a sign it's too big.

I always find repeating myself:
PLEASE READ THIS POST REGARDING THE USE OF IMAGES ON LAVA
No external links to large images please.

LAVA Trivia:
Among the visitors of the LAVA website, can anyone guess the percentage of IE vs. FF users?

Actually, this thread will do wonders for my Google ranking. Everyone misspelling LabVIEW will get led right to LAVA.

Well, if it's warmer weather you desire then perhaps JKI is for you.
