Are these optional? Or is labview only function block programming only?

National Instruments for YEARS has been bugging me to try a controller to replace the PLC (programmable logic controllers) I use in machine designs, and have said we can program in ladder logic, STL, flow chart, ST, when we switch over to this controller. That's where I am coming from with this question.

Or is C++ and function block (labview) the only options? And those other few mentioned in this thread....

According to this link: http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/2856 the State Diagram Toolkit is supported on the cRIO
