Re: Advanced LabVIEW programming?

Hi,
I agree with most of your "discoveries." They are all good programming techniques. There is a lot of detail about advanced architectures over on the NI forums and LAVAG.org.

One thing I have a problem with is using local variables for almost anything except updating the FP via a specific state call. (IE. only one local variable per control.) I use functional globals for this. These are typically implemented via feedback nodes/uninitialized shift registers. There should be a tip video up for that.

I now use classes fairly extensively. Every logical unit of the code would end up being it's own class. I then lock down things like my functional globals so that other code cannot use it without permission. I have found that this works very well in both single and multi developer teams. The LV implementation of classes forces the programmers to follow better programming techniques.
