Here's one most of you probably haven't thought about for a few years. I built an application for someone else, and when the exe was run on their computer, it started complaining about missing vis. I realized this probably meant the "Use LabVIEW 8.x file layout" button got unchecked somehow, so I fixed that and all was fine. Which started me thinking... Other than the issue LV 8.x and earlier builds have with vis with the same name, is there any technical reason to NOT use the LabVIEW 8.x file layout when making an executable? I don't use LVOOP, and think it's Bad Programming to have two vis with the same name in the same build (either they have slightly different functions, and therefore have different names, or it's the same vi living in my code reuse tree, or maybe it should be a polymorphic vi, etc). I'm going thru a big code cleanup push and am wondering if this is something worth the effort of "fixing" in my 2500+ vi and 25+ exe library.
