typedef

I have a strict typedef that I use to the startup configuration, is a cluster which is full of clusters and these clusters of all
has strings and indicators dbl. When I change what's in the string or the value of the indicators, it does not come through
in the program. I thought that a strict typedef would update the value in the typedef when used?

Imagine a type def (strict or not) is a classic as numeric type for example.

You can use several digital but you do not want this entirely digital changes if you change one.

This is the case even for type Type def beats are only a means to define a custom representation of data but not the content.

If you want to propagate the values between them, you must link them (indicator control, local variable, knot of furniture, etc...)

    First of all, you don't have an enum.  You have control of the ring.  It has different behaviors with respect to typedefs compared to enums.

  • copy main typedef not found

    Hi all

    I posted this question in the LabVIEW forum, but I guess that maybe the teststand discussion forum should be better, so I'm now posting here.

    I have a problem with my typedefine (Teststand UI Data.ctl) in the UI (derived from the interface chart single of Teststand). In the implementation, I was always able to add reminders in response to Teststand events in the past.

    Recently when I try to add a new reminder of a Teststand events, I get error saying that the master copy Typedef is not found or error. What I find odd are:

    1. If the Typedef master copy was not found or error comes, why would the error affect the reminders already implemented for other events Teststand?

    2. If the Typedef master copy was not found or error comes, why is it possible to run the program?

    Here I have 2 screenshots. The first screenshot shows the reminder of existing, where there is no error of the master copy of Typedef not found or error. The second screenshot shows the error when a new reminder is added to another event.

    The main copy of Typedef, call TestStand UI Data.ctl is also shown in 1 screen capture, and it is located in the TestExec.llb, as shown in the third screenshot.

    I'm not sure how to start debugging this problem, that is why I hope that experts from teststand out there can give me some advice.

    I am using 32-bit LabVIEW 2014 and 2014 Teststand 32 bits. Running on the Windows 7 system.

    Thank you.

    The simplest solution to this problem is to open the broken VI. Right click on the broken control and replace with the control of the typedef.

    The reason why he broke up is because you changed the typedef and VI was not in memory to be updated. The EndEdit event callback is looking for a TestStandUI Data.ctl. However, this file no longer exists (and so your error) according to the other screws, you renamed it to TestESystemUI Dependencies.lvlib:TestStandUI Data.ctl.  Be sure to have your files loaded into memory before rename/modify a location of VI.  Way the easiest is to have all the related screws project that endedit was not

  • Typedef reference FPGA not updated in the private class data

    I have a FPGA reference related to a typedef that is passed in a LVOOP object. If I change the FPGA of computer simulation of dev to the use of the actual hardware, all references to the typedef are updated which are controls on a diagram. But the typedef in my private class data seems not not to date, so I'm broken son until I replace the control to private data of my class with a copied from my block diagram. Has anyone seen this? Is there a CAR already? I can create a small project to reproduce if necessary.

    Edit: this also seems to happen when I change bitfiles or change to open a VI a bitfile opening in the Configure dialog box open FPGA VI.

    Hi Greg,.

    I was able to reproduce your problem thanks to your easy to follow instructions.

    I noticed that type def successfully by checking "Bind FPGA host of reference to the type definition" in the open FPGA VI reference configuration. What does not automatically update is the Issue.ctl of OBJECT-oriented programming, which has a nested type definition in the private data reference.

    The fastest solution, that I could find was to right click on "Issue.ctl" in the project, and then click Save. This problem immediately solved the broken wire error.

    While configuring open FPGA VI reference has the practical ability to bind to the def of type, it does not broadcast this change to data private to the class. I call not this bug, but I can see how you want it works this way.

    I would recommend you post that on theExchange of ideas (I see you're already regularly here).

  • Unable to set the tab order for a typedef

    Attached is a. CTL file is for a typedef in my project. I want to put the tab order. I use the 'table of Cluster' VI (what is a VI?) to fill with the data, but because the controls are not in the right order, the data is not in the right place. When I change my CTL, Edit | Set tab order is grayed out. Why is this and how can I solve this problem?

  • typedef does not refresh

    I have a state machine (which worked), and I wanted to add an additional State.  But when I try to update the typedef enum, I can't.   If I open the typedef, right click on product only a menu limited without any options to change.  If I right-click on the control and the 'Edit', it is clearly not updated the typedef because when I choose "update of typedef', the changes disappear.     I know I've done this before and I didn't have this problem.  What I am doing wrong?

  • typedef enum typedef to the tab control

    I have a typedef enum that defines that the DUT is for my automated test device. This enumeration is used everywhere in my code to determine which tests to run and how to interpret the results, etc. I also have a (much indicator tab to be precise) typedef tab control that has a page for each of the ESA with various indicators for each test that will be carried out on it must HAVE specific.

    I would use the typedef enum to select which page of the tab indicator to display. I am able to do it with brute force just a U32 converter like this:

    But would prefer to (because of my anality) eliminate dotting ugly coercian red (and depending on the size of the code, all memory that I can save help too).

    I tried many things, and none seems not to work. In this way, using a type cast, does not work.

    And not that this using variants (although it works with this little piece of the code example, maybe because my test set-up is an executable?):

    With the variant version, my test fixture survey an error 91 indicating data types is not compatible.

    Anyone has an idea how to convert between these two without which dot ugly coercian?

    Why not write a little VI with Enum entry and exit of the tab? It should be just a case internally structure. You can do the small icon so it does not much more space than the U32 conversion.

  • Problems with typedef uInt32 and NI Vision

    Hello

    I'm having a small problem my request against the headers provided by NI Vision acquisition 15.0 and CVI 2012SP1 of construction.  The problem seems to be contradictory typedefs in the files of headers associated with the types of 'SESSION_ID' and 'uInt32 '.  In NIIMAQdx.h, it is the following:

    #ifndef _NI_uInt32_DEFINED_
    #define _NI_uInt32_DEFINED_
    #if defined (_MSC_VER)
    typedef unsigned long uInt32;
    #else
    typedef unsigned int uInt32;
    #endif
    #endif

    Now, _MSC_VER is not defined, so we get defined as an unsigned int uInt32.  In niimaq.h there is:

    #ifndef _NI_uInt32_DEFINED_
    #define _NI_uInt32_DEFINED_
    #if defined (_MSC_VER)
    typedef unsigned long uInt32;
    #elif __GNUC__
    #if __x86_64__
    typedef unsigned int uInt32;
    #else
    typedef unsigned long uInt32;
    #endif
    #endif
    #endif

    Which neither _MSC_VER or __GNUC__ being defined, does nothing except set _NI_uInt32_DEFINED_ who prevernts to be set by another heading.  niimaq.h also has this in it:

    typedef uInt32 id_interface;
    typedef uInt32 SESSION_ID;
    typedef uInt32 EVENT_ID.
    typedef uInt32 PULSE_ID;
    typedef uInt32 BUFLIST_ID;
    typedef Int32 IMG_ERR;
    typedef uInt16 IMG_SYNC;
    typedef uInt32 GUIHNDL;

    This means that, by itself, a module which includes niimaq.h build because uInt32 never gets defined.  You can include NIIMAQdx.h in front of her then she cand defrine uInt32 (as an unsigned int), that works, except that nivision.h has this line int he:

    typedef unsigned long SESSION_ID;

    Yet once they do compile due to the conflicting types (unsigned int versus long unsigned).  It seems that there is no way to include niimaq.h, nivision.h and NIIMAQdx.h in the same .c file, regardless of the order, without certain types of conflicts or unknown.  Comparison of return to an older version (3.9.1), I see in NIMAQdx.h,

    #ifndef _NI_uInt32_DEFINED_
    #define _NI_uInt32_DEFINED_
    typedef unsigned long uInt32;
    #endif

    Which is nice and simple.  niimaq.h also has the same code in it too much OR-IMAQ 4.6.1.  Does this mean that I can "fix" it by defining _MSC_VER, indeed put

    #define _MSC_VER 1300

    At the top of my .c file gets in effect of things to build, but I'm wary to do this because I know there are other things that seem out of it.

    Any ideas or is the solution to restore an older version of the Acquisition of the Vision?  Thank you.

    Hi Tanner!, thanks for the reply.  I use the Debug, not 32-bit mode.  The code example you provided does not build in my configuration.  The problem is this code in niimaq.h

    typedef uInt32 id_interface;
    typedef uInt32 SESSION_ID;
    typedef uInt32 EVENT_ID.
    typedef uInt32 PULSE_ID;
    typedef uInt32 BUFLIST_ID;
    typedef Int32 IMG_ERR;
    typedef uInt16 IMG_SYNC;
    typedef uInt32 GUIHNDL;

    And the reason is that an Int32 and uInt32 are not defined (although uInt16 is defined).  On another PC with NI Vision 2009 installed it relies very well, but it does not work on this PC with IMAQ 15.0.

    Play with it, I think the problem is that CVI 2012 SP1 isn't definition _MSC_VER or __GNUC__, whereas CVI 2013SP1 __GNUC__ defined as 4 (and indefinite _MSC_VER leaves).  As __GNUC__ is defined, then in niimaq.h, uInt32 is defined as unsigned long (for 32 bit), and all is happy with CVI 2013, so the problem seems to be related to the combination of the ICB 2012 and versions more recent the IMAQ.

  • Knowledge through program if a control is a typedef

  • Impossible to update data XControl typedef

    I changed the typedef XControl data to a cluster. It worked. Then it became clear that I had to change again. I replaced the structure by an INT. LabView now tells me that it cannot update the new type definition without properly preserve the default values.

    Usually, you go to the control, right click and select "review and update... "Unfortunately the data into data on the façade VI are grayed out and not available. Even if I activate "Show Control/Indicator" on the block diagram I can't right click of the control.

    What should I do now?

    I had difficulty with this from time to time, so I created a tool to fix it.

    If LV is running, quit & restart.

    With the troublesome VI, select in the menu Tools,-> reapply TypeDef changes to all CTL on FP

    Note: This VI is set to run when open.

  • set items in the cluster of typedef double tables

    Hello

    I have a cluster of type def. This group includes 16 double tables, the size of the arrays are identical, but can change during execution.

    I would like to write data from table to this cluster in a loop, where I get the berries during the iterations of a PDM file. If the loop will iterate 16 times and every time I should put something in the cluster preceding the recent read double table.

    What would be the easiest solution here, since I can't use the 'Cluster to table' here and cluster table saw... ?

    Thank you!

    I don't know if it's necessarily easier, but if you change the typedef cluster so that it instead contains 16 clusters and each cluster contains a single element which is a 1 d array, then you will be able to use the Cluster to table and table to the Cluster, although you'll have to do an additional unbundling/package inside the loop for.

  • One way to approach the typedef a cluster by programming

    I have a need to extract the labeltext attached to a parent typedef of various front groups. Unfortunately the strict type defs apply strictly for referenced controls labeltext. Is it possible to use a Panel control/cluster reference before addressing the typedef parent programmatically? Or y at - it a way to extract the original/typedef labeltext programmatically for a cluster given façade/control?

    I don't know if I understand. If you are typical of a cluster, each element has a fixed label. You cannot change the item labels in different forums.

    That being said, I assume you mean the entire cluster (typedef instance) label. This can be changed, OK.

    I don't see any purpose to read the label of the typedef itself, however, it is possible. You must create a node of the cluster (instance) property, then select the 'Typedef VI' property. using VI Server, you can make reference to the façade, read controls (which is the actual typedef cluster) and the text of the label.

    Please note that the first property that I mention is part of the VI Scripting, so you'll see it only if you activate scripts VI in LV options.

  • LV FPGA - Front Panel strict Typedefs are not flexible

    Hello

    When using LabVIEW FPGA and implement a strict typedef on the Panel before the FPGA, this causes issues with the FPGA generated in the PC Code reference. I have attached a picture.

    In the code of my PC, I generate the ref FPGA, then use it. In the subVIs downstream, I use the same REF. It works very well. But if I never change the strict typedef and recompile the code FPGAS, can I get the wire cut as in the attached photo. I have to manually recreate this indicator FPGA Ref and cut and paste in all the subVIs downstream, pain in the ass!

    One might think that the strict typedef should not update in this manual. You can fix in future versions, or I do something wrong?

    Configuration information:

    • Open FPGA VI reference is to the bitfile and dynamic mode
    • FPGA VI on benchmark is the same bitfile
    • Downstream of fpgaRef indicators come bitfile too.

    Thank you

    Justin Reina

    You bind the FPGA reference to an interface or to the VI?  I think that if it's related to the VI you should not see this problem, but if link you to the interface of this problem would be understandable.  Also, have you considered reference FPGA so a type definition?  Then, you only set in one place if it does not break.

    EDIT: in case it isn't clear, by binding, I hear a right click on the indicator and choosing configure the FPGA reference.

  • control for a typedef RefNum

    I have a typedef on a façade of VI and I would he re-record a new path/name programmatically.

    with a VI I open a reference to the VI and use the method "Save.Instrument" save a copy: true and a path of entry.

    What I tried was to open a reference to the VI that uses the typedef, got a property node reference is the Panel, then a property of the table control fact reference - but control generally cannot be "recorded under" but a typedef could - there is no way to do it.

    Is there a way to do this?

    The control class has a property called TypedefVI that returns a reference to the VI of the typedef which you can then save. The only problem is that this method seems to be a method of script, so you will need to install the script first.

    Another alternative, if you do not want to use script commands, is to use the property called on the VI. This returns the names of all the typedefs he uses (which you can then use with the open reference VI primitive), but be aware that this gives you a way to associate a specific control with a specific typedef.
