Closing Array of References

[LAVA 1.0 Content]

I saw something interesting at the bottom of a LAVA WIKI page. Apparently you can close an array of references in one shot by passing the array (of references) directly to the Close Reference vi.

I tried it... but got a conflicting class error. Can anyone shed a bit of light on this?

Thanks!

Works at least in LabVIEW 8.5 with the limitation that the references need to be of same class hierarchy. One cannot close a VI ref and and a control ref together but array of front panel objects can be closed at one go.

RayR,

The ability to close an array of references was introduced in LabVIEW 8.5. To do this in earlier versions, you will need to use a For loop.

Thanks guys!

I saw an example, but didn't realize it was a new feature.
