XNodes

From LabVIEW Wiki
Revision as of 14:46, 28 March 2007 by Gb119 (talk | contribs) (Add note about adding XNodes to palattes and where the icon in the palatte comes from.)

XNodes are a technology built into LabVIEW 8.0+ that allows dynamic edit-time macro support.

XNodes are Libraries that feature several "Ability" VIs which consist of various events and methods of the XNode.

XNodes used in LabVIEW 8.2

Class Aggregate Handler? (vi.lib\Utility\AggHandler\Cls_AggHandler.xnode)
Class Grow Array Handler? (vi.lib\Utility\XGrowArr-llb\Cls_GrowArr.xnode)
Regular Expression (vi.lib\regexp\Match Regular Expression.xnode)
Shared Variables (vi.lib\variable\varXNode.llb\vi.lib\variable\varXNode.llb\varXNode.xnode)
Timed Loops (vi.lib\Platform\TimedLoop\XDataNode\XDataNode.xnode)
Database Variant To Data (vi.lib\addons\database\_DB Variant To Data\Database Variant To Data.xnode)

Ability VIs

XNodes in the Development Environment

XNodes can be added to palattes as if they were plain VIs, however the icon that is displayed in the palatte is that of the Initialize Ability vi and not the image created by the Image Ability vi.
