To begin with, the labview run time is riddled with bugs. Every application I've ever seen written under labview is expected by its creators and its users to crash randomly and continually for no explainable reason. Yes, drawing out some things in a visual IDE and having it work is nice. The problem is that eventually LabVIEW is going to update their runtime and it won't work anymore. Now what? Take the time and do it right up front, and then when it needs to be updated people aren't cursing "whoever decided to do this in LabVIEW years ago" as they often do in these situations. |

Ok, but again what do you suggest is 'right' then, any example? Because as laid out, for me, it is right, since we have zero problems.

Hmm, strange. Sounds to me like those creators must be doing something wrong. I mean, we've been running a couple of Labview applications for +10 years and I honestly think none of them ever crashed (where 'crash' means suddenly stops working without apparent reason because of a bug in Labview itself, not come to a halt due to programmer error). Also wen to, I don't know, 3 or 4 updates, without much problems. Again I think it just comes down to hwat I said first: the hard part might be fuguring out how to do Labview right, I guess.
