Generating type defs

[Synaesthesiac]

Hello all--

I've not even begun to explore the scripting features in LabVIEW, but am wondering if it is possible to write a script that generates a type def consisting of multiple controls (e.g. a type defined cluster of strings, booleans, etc.) and saves it as a .ctl file. What would be really excellent is if I could pass a flattened xml string that defines the controls (in the same format as is outputted from a "flatten to xml" node), and generate a .ctl file from that. If this is possible, I might start to really delve in to LabVIEW scripting

The Variant To Control Code Repository solution will convert any variant to a .ctl file.

Selectively this control can be a (strict) type def.

You can build an arbitrary variant using OpenG data tools

Have fun,
