I'm stuck right now, so I thought give it a try.
This is what I want to achieve:
I have one Vi to inside another Vi. Lets call the first one "inner" and the second one "outer". The "inner" Vi is a Vi which communicates to a python server (tcp-connection). The protocol is already implemented and works for sending over strings which are provided by the "outer" Vi. The procotol is designed in such a way that not only strings should be transmited, but also boolean and numbers.
Now the problem rised. The outer Vi provides a value of a certain type. The inner Vi should figure out which value and type is provided by the outer vi, so that it can fit it into the protocol. In other words, the inner Vi should be made more general in accepting values and data types. In this way it can act as a blackbox to which an value is given.
I hope someone can help me out.
