This was narrowed as a bug inwindows XP/LabVIEW combination. Ton

What about this little piece of code: The trick is to get the controls-data in a cluster where each element has the name of the specific control. You can use the OpenG Variant toolkit VIs to build the cluster. Ton

One additional place to ask this is on Serverfault a Q&A site for system admins. This might have two advantages: There probably is someone with a definitive answer (Yes, it's available at ..../ No it's not available) They can probably write a good piece why it's nuts to use a hub Ton

I was able to download this with firefox and keep the filename extension. Weird. Ton

So if I understand you correctly you can make a build, but not an automatic one because you have to enter the password? If so you should be able to store the password in the LabVIEW cache. However I can understand that these caches are Application Instance aware so are useless since the build is done in a seperate instance. Ton

Here's a VI that sometimes will show what I mean. Hit the 'Fire' event that fires a user event and a value signalling event (in that specific order) In those events I read the current iteration number of the while loop. If the events are in order the First Iteration should be smaller than SecondIteration Sometimes however that is not always the case. I cannot get a resolution like I expected (it seems like the resolution is 1 ms) so I uses a different timer than the Get Ms. Ton EventOrder.vi

Matthew out of curiosity (we would need to do some work on OpenG package builder as well) could you run this code: Ton

This is starting to be a nice discussion. A LabVIEW event structure is indeed listening to two event queues, one for dynamic events and one for static events. When there are events in both queues it picks the one with the earliest timestamp. However these can be duplicate (I am not sure but I guess the resolution of this timestamp is 15/16 ms on windows) and then LabVIEW just picks the one it likes best. Ton

The source code for the library can be found here Ton

You're welcom, but try to have some patience before cross-posting. Ton

When I download that file it has the extension *.vip, however I know some proxies/web browser can alter the extension of some files. Just try to rename it to *.vip (it's not an OGP or ZIP file). Ton

Here's a zip with the files in labview 7: dg4inv7.zip Ton PS on the NI forums is a special 'Upconvert thread'

I am looking for one of my CR solution 'Align and distribute', I can however not find this... It was placed at http://lavag.org/files/file/133-align-distribute/ in April of this year. Ton

I meant Delete Key. Ton

The exact difference between the two timestamps is 786 out of 2^64 of a second (4,16334E-17). Ton

I guess untill the memory of your computeris full. That will happen faster with an event structure than with a queue, the overhead of the event structure includes the actual timestamp when the event happens. Ton

The source code for this tool is hosted at Sourceforge under Mercurial. Ton

Thanks, and I see you are working/investigating the actual issue. Ton

I dont know, but I assume that the driver you create is not exposing itself as a VISA program. I haven't done anything in this field the last decade so I can't help you any further for this specific issue. Ton

The latest upgrade has removed the 'too short' message. Ton

Is this implemented? If so we might need some more documentation how to do this (or a guideline). Ton
