Just because the LV way of doing something might be different dosen't mean it's impossible or even very hard to do.

Having worked with both C and LabVIEW, there are many things which are much harder in LabVIEW if you try to program it like C (in a procedural or object-oriented way).

There are some things which are still harder in LabVIEW. However, there are some things in LabVIEW which are harder in C++. It's all a tradeoff. Both languages are fully capable of handling what we are throwing at them.
I have never even looked at LV. I know Java and C++ and the main reason I am programming the robot in C++ is b/c I know the WPI Libraries in C++ the best. And I will admit some things may be harder in C++, but we don't wanna make our job to easy now do we? haha.
