Java vs Labview

[Greg McKaskle]

Oh. Forgot to add that to invoke a command,you use the System Exec node. This is in fact how the Java and C++ apps are launched -- from LV using system exec.

So if you wanna launch another process, that is all it takes. But of course communicating to it is another matter, which is why it is much more common to simply have a parallel loop in LV that does the other thing instead of parallel processes doing it. There are cases for another process, but for LV FRC, I'd generally go for another loop.
