Re: LabView/C++ equally capable?
Jared, good points. I had considered that it might be a matter of familiarity as you suggest but I would have expected at least some reported success with LabView. I agree that the actual language should not be the limiting factor.
I'm wondering if perhaps the readability of C++ vs. the "black box" nature of LabView has something to do with it. I tried to dig into the LV to see how the video was processed and got pretty discouraged pretty fast.
The question still stands though regardless of cause. Will the correlation drive a change in behavior regarding language selection? I guess my hope is that the video capability provided is adequate in all languages so that a team might concentrate on how to put the data to work controling a robot and not on how to get a basic functionality working.
