Locking enum value

Hey all,.

I want to lock an enumeration with a specific value, and essentially make a constant. Basically I want the enum to keep a value I select when registering whenopening and closing of VI. Maybe that I want just the code for too long, but is there a simple way to define a default value for the enumeration, which is not the first or last value in the list?

Thanks a bunch!

You can make any value by default, but it requires an operation of "Save" to store the new settings. Simply right-click the enum and "operation data... make current value by default".

It should not be operated at run time, making this option disabled.

If you need only on the diagram, change it to a constant of diagram instead.

Sometimes it is easier to store values in a configuration file, in this way, the value can be set externally to the VI.

  • changing enum values

    1. I want to do an enum with the strings [] being the value of the file (a text file containing "option 1, option 2, option 3...").
    I already have a vi that gets the file and gives a table with options, but it seems that I can't change propety [enum] channels off within the program.

    I thought to use a second vi that, during race will open my main vi, change the [] of the enum strings, run the main program and stop, but that seems a lot of trouble for something that is supposed to be simple.

    is there an easier way to do it?

    attached are the vi, a snip of the vi, as well as a list of example.

    You cannot change the enum values, time of execution. Have you tried to use a menu ring or a ring of text (see attachment).

  • How can I change default digital and enum values in a Cluster of Def Type Strict?

    I have a Strict Type Def cluster that contains 10 digital controls and a number of enums.  I have changed the default values for the digital controls in the strict Type Def, in customize mode, carried out a 'course values Default do' and did a 'apply changes' and recorded.

    This group is used in various places throughout the project and have not found a way to make the default cluster values change downstream.  Strict control Type (STD) Def seems to have good values on the front panel.  But if I place an instance of this on a white façade and do pass a wire of him in the block diagram with a probe and an indicator, I still get the old default values being passed against the STD.

    and still another approach is mentioned in my nugget on definitions of types found here, where I include this picture

    To illustrate how a wrapper around the constant type-def avoids not only the "problem of the explostion" (largely set by the new LV 2011 for display as icon feature) can be used to set the defaults AND allow some documents explain what, where and why.

  • Displaying an Enum value and the name of the element when the values are not sequential

    Hello

    I use Enum and controls indictators successfully with shared and modbus variables.

    For example:

    Name of the element Value

    Off:                0

    Start 1

    On                2

    Œuvres enum Setup, I don't need to look for a cheat sheet to convert the name of the element in its value, I see the name of the item in my order/indicator.

    My new variables, I'm currently managing look like this:

    Name of the element Value

    Code 0 x 201

    Beginning Code 0 x 202

    Code 0 x 001

    Any ideas how I can display the value and the name of the element on a façade. (for a control and indicator)

    For enumerations, it seems that the item values must go 0,1,2,3,4,5

    I found the solution:

  • Table is obtained from static method Enum "values()" intended as sorting?

    Hi all

    My question is on the table that you get when you call the static method "values()' from the enumeration.

    Is it intended that the default sort? And especially: can I use Arrays.binarySearch () with?

    Thank you.

    Adriano

    The values are returned in the order in which they appear in the definition of the enum. So no, not guaranteed sorted unless you maintain with obstinacy sorted State yourself. A call to Arrays.sort () can fix it, of course.

  • Get the value Enum Text of a control Variant

    Hello

    I was wondering what is the best way to get the text of a Enum value control variant.

    What I have is a Subvi, which has a variant as an input control and this VI is designed to read all that is the variant control and write it to a file. I have been using GetTypeInfo VI for what data type is Variant and then on that basis using the variant of the data function to extract the right data. It worked well for most types of data I need.

    However for Enums while I can quite easily read the numerical value by this method, I can't seem to get the text on their part I tried to use the method of the solution posted here , but since my control itself is of type LVVariant I can't to cataloged it or replace it with a more specific class of the Enum. Although when I the LVVariant of the probe or flatten it into a string I can see that it contains all the text data of the enum. What is the best way to get this?

    Any ideas would be appreciated!

    Thank you

    Kewal

    deep in the vilib:

    VariantType.lvlib:GetNumericInfo.vi - takes a variant and returns the array of strings to enum, get the error for the non-numeric values.

  • [ADF, JDev12.1.3] Page of the input parameters: 1) expression for a value of type enum? (2) can they be used to initialize CIU?

    Hallo,

    I have a backingBean extended myBean bean 'associate' to a page fragment used in a stubborn workflow.

    I want to declare to the fragment in the settings of btf 2 who have a fixed value. Their values should be copied in 2 myBeanattributes.

    An attribute is Boolean, and I guess it does not give any problem, but the other is to an enum type that is defined in the myBean bean itself.

    I have to write in "value *" pass the enum value to var enum in myBean?

    And if the "value *" have been a public static final string of a Java class in the application Module which expression I should use?

    I would like to use parameters of entry Page to initialize (hide, show,...) in myBean some component of the user interface in the page fragment? Is this possible without intervention in any problem? Can kindlu give you some tips to achieve this?

    Thank you

    Federico

    It also works with range backingBean?

    I don't know (I just created a few vars inside managed bean in my application of playground).

    The fragment contains a search with table form and it's always the same, whereas the bean (containing the search called action when the user clicks on the button 'Search') should take the page settings to compose the search query according to them.

    Yes, but that are not exactly 'page settings' because you retrieve the values of the url of the page, right?

    In conclusion, the problem is that I should switch to the different settings depending on the btf bean where the fragment is used.

    You have a better idea to achieve this?

    Then why you are not using the BTF settings (they will be in pageFlowScope)

  • Using script - library locked when you try to add the file to it

    Hello

    I'm just a simple script that I can run with my engines of the action, so if I add new enum values I can create new wrappers quickly. I am able to create a new VI on disk, but when I try to add the the VI to the library, I get "error 1562: library, or the specified project is locked." Just before adding the article, I tried to adjust the State of the library "Not locked", but has not been the tower.

    Directions to see the error:

    Open attached zip file

    Open 'Engine.lvlib Action '.

    Run "Script - Create Wrapper.vi.

    Please let me know how to get around this, I thank you,

    Gregory

    There are two reasons at least a library locks: 1) something he possesses is running, 2) is open in two or more instances of the application.  (This applies to classes too.)

    I started a project and took your scripts out of the library (to avoid the #1) and then open your Library Reference by path in your script, be sure to include the reference of the application (to avoid the #2).

    Works now.  (With the exception of the Init.vi but you mentioned earlier that you knew about it. But point 1 and 2 of article work fine.)

  • Synchronize the case structure with enum update

    Hi, I created a control enum initially with the "First" and "Second" values. In the block diagram, I created a node of this enum control property and it is connected to a box structure. The structure of business allows me to manage the condition "First" or "Second" correctly.

    I then modified the items in my enum so there is now a 'third party '. My problem is that structure business conditions still show as 'First' and 'second '; That is to say, I can't handle the "Third" condition My question is how to synchronize my case structure to show the updated enum values?

    VI, attached, the sample created with LabVIEW 2009 version 9.0f3 (32-bit) running on Windows 7.

    Thank you all for your help in advance.

    Michael O'Shea

    First tip: remove the value 'default' first case

    If you have done your VI pauses when you change your enum, which is a good thing.

    Now to synchronize, do a right-click on the border of the structure of the case and select 'add the case for all values', this is the option you are looking for.

  • Transformation of signal-to-symbol (FXP enum)

    Hi guys,.

    I write an application where I will have a table of temperatures in FXP (from a reading of FPGA) I need to change to a representation of the symbol ("HIGH", "MED", etc.) according to the interval in which the value is located.

    That is to say;

    I have implemented this in the following way;

    It works for this simple example, but if I had more than 3 States in my Enum code would begin to be quite annoying.

    I would like the code to be able to manage;

    • Different limits for different items in a table of Signal; 0.2 could be "MED" at one point but "HIGH" for another.
    • Also be scalable for Enum values ~ 10.

    Can someone point me in the right direction?

    Thank you very much

  • No sequential enum causes error

    When calling a .NET object that has a property that defines the enum value, I get a runtime error in .NET code if the enum is defined so that each value is not a sequential number (as a bit mask). There is no problem if the values are sequential. In both cases, the sequence editor shows a drop down with the names of the enum values but put the name in quotes.

    TestStand handles enumerations with no sequential values correctly?

    It works for me if I specify values separated by commas, or specify the numeric value. For example:

    [Flags]

    public enum mybitfield
    {
    myval1 = 0 x 1,
    myval2 = 0 x 2
    }

    The bit field above, to specify two values for a parameter, that you que vous pouvez pouvez to specify:

    ' myval1, myval2.

    0 x 1 | 0x2

    0 x 3

    All that above worked for me in TestStand 4.2.1 and TestStand 2010.

    Hope this helps,

  • Enum change color in a cluster that is in a table

    Hello

    I have this cluster with a string and an enum, which is in a table. I use an event producer/consumer model, on the event of the mouse clicking on a line specific VI another opens with a string of button and comment of success/failure.

    After playing with "CtlRef" in the case where structure, I found the property node which allows me to find the element of specific table clicked on "ArrElem.Value". I can then ungroup and regroup this specific cluster. Based on the success/failure enum value I would respectively to the colors red and green.

    My question, how to find the reference of a specific enum within a cluster to change its color based on the text? I was able to reference the cluster only.

    Thank you.

    FYI, I'm using LV 2010 SP1

    You have a small problem here.

    Your cluster is in a table.  only the values can change between the elements of the array all other properties must be the same.

    So, what you need is a colorbox in the cluster.  (Ah brilliant!)  Place it behind the other elements and make the other color background Transparent controls.

  • How to upgrade the enum labels when enum is inside an array of clusters?

    Hello gurus of LabVIEW,.

    I'm stuck with one aspect of the design and I was wondering if you could share some ideas on how to move beyond this: I want to fill an array of strings, and then complete an enum inside a table with string values.

    For the purposes of discussion, I'll break you in two actions steps, where it takes place before the second (sequential, not in parallel)

    Action - the user will first ask you to fill a table with 'strings '. The table might look like,

    row0 - "string0".

    Row1 - 'string1 '.

    row2 - "word2".

    and so on...

    Action 2 - whenever the user "action selects two" I would like to fill out an ENUM inside a cluster with the values of 'Action '. In other words, I am trying to dynamically write enum values.

    The cluster has several objects such as Boolean controls, String, control, AND YEAR ENUM (see attachment .png)

    I tried using the ring and enumerations at this stage and have failed him. I read somewhere that the enum/ring is in a cluster and the cluster within a table, what I'm trying to do is simply not possible. If this is the case, can you please throw my ideas, my ideas? :-)

    In advance, thank you very much.

    See you soon,.

    First of all, the question is your cluster is a strict type def and preventing you from updating the ropes of the ring then I turned into a normal type def.  I've also got rid of the sequence and the while loop they were not useful anyway.  Just unzip and run the VI then enter values in the table, as you enter data, that the ring is updated with the new value.

  • Reference typedef enum class conversion leads to the error 1057

    Thanks in advance.

    Thank you.

    I didn't go to LV 2015 before the first service pack is not available.

    Your Board, I found a solution: I extracted the frontpanel typedef element and cast to the enum. It's not like simple, in fact, it is much more complicated, but it seems to me the right way to do it. The attached picture shows a vi, which takes a ref vi of the typedef as input and generates output channels of the enum defined it. There should be a few errors that I have did ' t do again, for example, make sure that the entry is a typedef and that it defines an enumeration, but the principle is there.
