Wrap It Up!LabVIEW gives you the capability to define and use polymorphic VIs; that is, VIs that can automatically adapt to different data types on their inputs and outputs. The advanced file IO functions in LabVIEW let you dig down into text and binary files and have random access to the data within them. You can also use .ini, or configuration files, with LabVIEW. If you need to share LabVIEW with other applications, or if you need to import external code, LabVIEW can both call and create external DLLs (Windows) or Shared Libraries (Mac OS X and Linux). Finally, we took a look at advanced data conversion through the use of the Type Cast function and the Variant functions. |
