  1. It's not December yet. We can't have 2010 capital until there's not enough time in the year to spend it. We save a fortune that way.
  2. Interesting utility. Perhaps you could add some data validation in the event that the input string contains invalid data. Here's a smaller way to do it.
  3. I agree, almost word-for-word.
  4. I understood that part, I just don't understand why. I've modified my earlier example to use the Waveform data type, but you'll see that it doesn't faithfully represent what's been drawn. This is where you'll have to define how to convert X-Y data into a waveform (axis scaling and handling right-to-left pen movement, to start). Do you understand what I mean? main (1).vi
  5. It's possible, but you'd have to validate the drawing's data before you could make it into a waveform. I've made it into an X-Y Graph by doing this: What would your waveform look like if you moved your pen from right-to-left? That's one thing you'd need to handle. Interesting question, however. What's your application going to do? main.vi (LV 8.2)
  6. I have a similar situation in that I'm working on abstracting CAN hardware because my company has NI, Kvaser and ValueCAN all over the place. I've begun a BaseCAN parent class, a ValueCAN class (which will have ValueCAN-2 and ValueCAN-3 children) and a Kvaser class. My ultimate goal is to dynamically dispatch whichever child classes are required based on the hardware (as indicated by an entry in a configuration file). I've got it working for simple read/write functions. I've printed out the document from Daklu's link about HALs. Is this along the lines of what you're discussing?
  7. Thanks for answering; I feel bad for asking. I noticed that you mentioned a release early next week. Will you be following the "release early, release often" philosophy?
  8. I was discussing G# with a colleague this morning and mentioned that some of you had left Endevo. His first thought was to question whether it's ethical for us to use G# when it could contain some Endevo-proprietary content. What sayest thou?
  9. I disagree; I just had a few really good coaches that gave me spot-on advice. Besides, there are far too many folks on LAVA (beside whom I am an amateur) that truly deserve that distinction. I could try to list them, but it would take too long. Here's where I'd start, if I'd start.
  10. After a year and a half you probably have a good foundation, but you should do better than 70%. Study the questions from the practice exam, even wiring them up yourself to verify their operation. I passed the CLAD, CLD and CPI (Certified Professional Instructor) in less than one year without taking any NI training courses. You can, too.
  11. I won't be at NI Week or the BBQ, but I would pay for a LAVA Lanyard. Is that an option?
  12. How about your avitar? Can it see colors? If not, it's a color-blind hare (with a pancake on it's head).
  13. You used "there", "their" and "they're" in the same sentence. You could be kicked off of the Internets. Thank you.
  14. It's faster than cooking a potato, and that's good enough for me.
  15. Opera? Oh, it's nothing, it's just the fastest browser on Earth. Just ask them.
  16. I don't see any post preview in Opera 10.53, but I'd probably like it.
  17. Is that numeric control being read continuously? Could it be that it's read once and your dataflow doesn't read it when you're updating your chart?
  18. You ought to have done more work with Dennis' example than you did. Crosspost from here. Here's an example of how to have each question on its own page. I used a Tab Control and hid the tabs. The Next button isn't on any of the Tab Control's pages, I've floated it over the control so it's accessible from every page.
  19. Here are two: http://lavag.org/top...dpost__p__25408 http://lavag.org/top...iew-vi-library/ The first one sounds more like what you had in mind.
  20. You're a "bird on a LabVIEW wire". Not too shabby.
  21. Write a program to test the Overheat and Fire Detection control cards for the 747-8 aircraft. Then I won't have to do it.
