Re: Advanced LabVIEW programming?

The initial year was based on LV8.5, and they were not quite happy with objects under RT, so it was disabled. Support was on for LV8.6RT.

As for differences between the FIFO and the queue, there are more similarities than differences, but the RT one has an implementation that doesn't use locks and generally has less overhead. The general queue has a few additional features. Since I don't expect you to be passing much data or to be updating often, I suspect they are interchangeable for you. If I were you, I'd devise a quick test to verify that.
