Dave Graybeal Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 Well, I've been told that LabVIEW 8.2.1 has been officially released. At the same time though, it does not appear to be located anywhere on ni's website. Anyone on here have the patch floating around or know when ni plans to make it available thru their website? Thanks, Dave Graybeal Quote Link to comment
LAVA 1.0 Content Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 As far as I know LV 8.2.1 just bring Vista's support I heard once that it could also bring some bug correction but I didn't get this information from NI so... The only part on NI web site I found is not really related to 8.2.1, but more to Vista's support. http://www.ni.com/vista/ Next "major" release should come by the end of the year, 8.5. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment

LAVA 1.0 Content Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 CITATION(Aristos Queue @ Apr 5 2007, 04:12 PM) 8.2.1 is not yet generally available. Well, I can guess that from the fact that there is nothing about 8.2.1 on NI web site, but can you tell us if it will include bug fixes ? And maybe give a list Quote Link to comment

I would also be very surprised if a list of fixed bugs weren't included in a readme or something. Quote Link to comment

JohnRH Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 I noticed that the LV Runtime engine that is included with NI-VISA 4.1, claims to be version 8.2.1. (NI-VISA 4.1 is available for download) Could this be correct? Quote Link to comment

Maybe that's where it came from. George Quote Link to comment
PJM_labview Posted April 7, 2007 Report Share Posted April 7, 2007 As other have mentioned before, NI has outdone themself with the readme file for this LabVIEW update. We finally have access to the entire bug fixes list. Kudo NI :thumbup: Here it is: The LabVIEW 8.2.1 http://forums.lavag.org/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=5424 PJM Quote Link to comment

This is wonderful. Sure, it's a long list of bugs. Yes, it means that there are lot's of bugs in 8.2.0. But, it means that NI is dedicated to creating an environment (and relationship with its customers) that promotes high-quality software, rather than an environment that promotes brushing bugs under the rug. I commend NI for its commitment to improving LabVIEW. Kudos, Quote Link to comment

Version number 8.2.1 indicates exactly this as 8.3 would indicate also inclusion of some new features. Tomi Quote Link to comment
Grampa_of_Oliva_n_Eden Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 Well now that it is public I can talk. For all of you that appreciate the Bug List of the 8.2.1 release, please take the time to "pat yourselves on the back". That list is the end effect of all of the Bug Reporting that the LV users have taken part in. So yes "thank you NI" but also "Thank you Bug-Hunters". Ben Quote Link to comment
TG Posted April 11, 2007 Report Share Posted April 11, 2007 I think I am going to especially appreciate these fixes "41ICLC00 Fixed an issue where the File»Apply Changes menu item in the Control Editor window might fail for nested type definitions. " 41SEH2R0 Fixed an issue with the Unbundle By Name function where the outputs shift and return the wrong elements if you expand the input cluster and add an element to the beginning of the cluster. These were driving me nuts. Thanks NI Quote Link to comment
