How to know  pro-grammatically variable type(string ,numeric ....) of TestStand variable using CVI

Hi,
how to know  pro-grammatically  variable type(string ,numeric ....)  of TestStand  variable using Labwindows CVI.
Thanks
Mukesh Kumar

Mukesh,
You could use the TS_PropertyGetType() function in CVI to do this. Here is a reference page for the GetType function--you can see that it returns a PropertyValueType which will indicate which type the PropertyObject (variable) is. In CVI, you'll find this function in the NI TestStand API 2013 instrument methods, under PropertyObject > Static Properties. 
Hope it helps, and let us know if you have any more questions about it!

  • How to know whether the Content Type at Library level is Inheriting Parent Content type or not Using Powershell?

    Hi,
    How to know whether the Content Type at Library level is Inheriting Parent Content type or not using Powershell?
    Is there any property for that? Or Do I need to compare the Content type Id's at Site collection level and Library level?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,
    AA.

    Hi Ashok,
    For a content type, there is an attribute called Inherits, the value of this attribute determines whether the content type inherits fields from its parent content type when it is created.
    If Inherits is TRUE, the child content type inherits all fields that are in the parent, including fields that users have added.
    If Inherits is FALSE or absent and the parent content type is a built-in type, the child content type inherits only the fields that were in the parent content type when SharePoint Foundation was
    installed. The child content type does not have any fields that users have added to the parent content type.
    More information, please refer to the link:

    how to know if my iphone 4s is open line and can use it anywhere or in any country?,like i bougth it in united arab emirates and if im in philippines i can still use it there?.

    If you did not purchase it from an authorized distributor, then there is no way to tell short of trying a different SIM. Even then, it may have been hacked to unlock it.
    That's a risk you take when you buy from the gray market.

  • How to filter by attributes with type Strings

    The documentation is not really detailed about setting attributes with type Strings. I assume I've to type each string value in a new line in the set attributes dialog box. This works fine and my XML looks like this<br /><br /><para CMS = "prodA prodB"><br /><br />having set the two string values "prodA" and "prodB".<br /><br />But how to filter these attributes? The filter CMS="prodA" shows my paragraph correctly, but CMS="prodB" does not show this paragraph as it should. Filters seem to match only the first of the set of string values.<br /><br />I would like to show this paragraph in two document versions for these two products prodA and prodB.<br /><br />Framemaker 8.0.3<br /><br />Tilman

    Tilman,
    this is something that AFAIK is not supported by FrameMaker's own attribute based filtering.
    But, without changing your documents, if you install the *free* ABCM (Attribute-based condition management) plug-in from weststreet consulting, you will succeed. Be sure to read the tutorial!

  • How to know or check the type of a field when processing a dynamic table?

    Dear all,
        When processing a dynamic table i have a short dump because of a convert_of_type incorrect, so i would like to check the type of field-symbol <f> before moving the data (type char) to this field-symbol <f>.
    Could you please help me how to check or get the type of field-symbol <f> (because field-symbol <f> is assigned dynamic, so this <f> can be type char, unit, or quantity, ...)?
    The source code same as below:
       ASSIGN COMPONENT lc_field OF STRUCTURE ls_data TO <f>.
       MOVE lv_field TO <f>. (Dump is here when lv_field is char type and <f> is quantity type => could i check the type of <f> if it's char type before using this instruction "MOVE ..."?)
    Thanks a lot in advance,
    Vinh Vo

    Try to use this way
    WRITE lv_field TO <f>.
    Instead of
    MOVE lv_field TO <f>.

  • How to know the size of the string with out using the length() method

    i want to find the lenght of the
    String s="Sudha";
    with out using the lenght() method.

    Not true (I mean the part about "The only String
    call"). But if it had been true, I might haveagreed
    with this:
    Assuming one uses the 'exception' approach thenwhat
    method other than charAt() is needed?I probably misunderstood your post, I thought you
    meant that the only alternative to length() would be
    charAt() and catching the exception.There are many ways and if the teacher had said find 5 ways of finding the length of a String then I would have fealt happier because it would have meant the student would have to read and study the whole of the String API.
    I like
    int length = (s+"sabre").lastIndexOf("sabre");

  • Variable type exit with two source variables

    I have a case where I should determine a variable (A) value according to two other variables (B) and (C). That is, e.g.
    - IF (B)=x AND (C)=y THEN (A)=z
    - IF (B)=i AND (C)=j THEN (A)=k
    It seems like I cannot call the user exit with more than one exported variable, the standard call below:
    call function m_user_exit
      exporting
        i_area      = m_area
        i_variable  = m_variable
        i_chanm     = l_chanm
        ito_chanm   = mto_chanm
      importing
        eto_charsel = rto_value
    Any suggestions?
    Regards, Aki

    Thanks to everyone especially to Natarajan,
    Both source variables are type exit, so I did the following:
    A-variable was the “standard source”
    B-variable was determined by function call (source below)
    C-variable then determined by combination of A and B
    I added this simple code in the beginning of “your own logic”  and I had source_var_B as a “B-variable”.
    DATA: source_var_B TYPE upc_yto_charsel.
    call function 'ZDETERMINE_B'
      exporting
        i_area      = 'AREA'
        i_variable  = 'VAR_B'
        i_chanm     = 'CHAR_B'
        ito_chanm   = ito_chanm
      importing
        eto_charsel = source_var_B.
    Do you see any risks or inconsistencies or whatever I should take into account?

  • How to know a particular Delivery Type "Normal" or "Return "

    Hi,
       Can anyone please let me know:-
    1) How can we distinguish between "<b>NORMAL</b>" Delivery and a "<b>RETURN</b>" Delivery?
    2) How can we distinguish Materials inside a Delivery:-
                  a) Empties.( packaging materials ) ?
                  b) Not Delivered. ?
                  c) Extra Delivered. ?
    Regards...
    Avi..............

    Hi Avi,
    1. Distinguish between normal & Return
    For this the naming convention for Delivery type is different
    Normal Delivery - LF
    Returns - LR
    2. Distinguish materials inside a delivery- you need to be more eloborate on this question
    every material is having different no and hence we know what materials are their in a particular delivery
    3. Packaging materials:
    These are defined seperately and the Material Type is VERP. IN config we can decide whether a particular delivery item needs to be packed or not. this can be done using delivery item category (packing Control) and Delivery Type (automatic packing)
    4. Not delivered - This can be seen in Sales order document flow - Go to Va02 and F5
    5. Extra delivered:
    This can again be controlled in customer Master - SHipping Tab - Under delivery tolerance/ Over delivery tolerance. Also in delievry item category (Chcek Min Delivery Qty/ Check over delivery.
    Reward points of it helps
    regards

  • How to create Pro grammatically Search Form ?

    Version 11.1.1.3.0
    HI i have a requirement where i cant use the search panel/Af:guery panel or View criteria to create the Search form,
    I want simple search on 3 fields and result shld dispaly in table.
    How can i do that??
    Thanks for help

    Two things:
    1. I don't know why you need to have the bean populate the list box -- is it based on other values in the form, requiring a runtime filter? "data" belongs in databases.
    If so, I would recommend looking up Cascading List boxes (Shay has a youtube channel with that) and I have a video on that, too.
    Secondly, you can have list box on the form that will show the "readable" value to the user that they can select. I have a video on that -- possibly the first video I mentioned, but this one may help too.
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytpLTC5HdvA&feature=plcp
    2. To create a view criteria programatically:
    In the application module, go to the java tab and create an appmoduleimple class. Create a method that manipulates the view criteria and executes the view object. Then expose that on the application module. On the data control, drag and drop the method onto your form. Choose parameter form.
    A form should be created that has the input and button.
    3. On the data control, click on the method and under it, select parameter. drag that onto the form. Select listbox when it asks what kind of control you want to create. Then it will display the listbox gui to connect the database table. This will create a listbox on the form that users can then select. You can manipulate the view object (also using view critieria) behind the listbox to filter data based on some value on the form.
    I am writing from memory here, so I might have skipped a step.

  • How can I filter as you type on numeric datagridcolumn?

    Hello,
    I use this script to filter, it works great with string
    field, but when change it to numeric field (ie. contact_number) I
    got this error (property length not found on Number and there is no
    default value. Does any one have any idea why and how I can correct
    this?
    Thanks in advance for any help.
    Phong.
    public function processFilter(item:Object):Boolean
    var result:Boolean=false;
    if (!item.FirstName.length
    ||
    item.FirstName.toUpperCase().indexOf(search.text.toUpperCase())
    >= 0)
    result=true;
    return result;
    }

    I assume you're talking about a JSF application.
    I think you should be able to do this in the constructor of a backing bean.
    1) Add an operation binding, bound to your service method, to the page's pageDefinition.
    2) On the JSF page flow Overview tab, add a managed property to the backing bean. Call it, say, myMethod, give it type oracle.bindings.OperationBinding, and give it the value #{bindings.nameOfYourOperationBinding}
    3) Add a myMethod field of type OperationBinding, with getter and setter, to your backing bean class.
    4) In the backing bean class's constructor, add code like:
    myMethod.execute();This will execute the method every time the page is loaded.
    Now, if you want to execute the method only the first time the page is loaded, it's a bit trickier. You need to set, and use, a session variable:
    Map sessionVars = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getSessionMap();
    if (sessionVars.get("hereBefore") == null)
      myMethod.execute();
      sessionVars.put("hereBefore", "true");
    }

  • How do you save dynamic data type, from the DAQ assistant, for use in Excel or matlab?

    Currently, I have the following basic VI setup to save Data from my PCI6221 Data Aquisition Card.  The problem I'm having is I keep getting the last iteration of the while loop in the measurement file and that's pretty much it.  When I try to index the data leaving the loop it gives me a 2D array of Data which cannot be input into the "Write to Measurement File" VI.  How would I save this to a useful Data/time step format?  I was wondering of a way to continuously collect the Data and then save it in a large measurement file that I would manipulate in Matlab/excel?  Am I using the wrong type of loop for this application?  I also noticed my Dynamic Data array consists of data, time, timestep and then a vector of the data taken.  Is it possible to just get a vector of the time change per sample alongside the data?    Sorry for the barrage of questions but any help would be greatly appreciated, and thanks in advance!

    There is a VI in the Express > Signal Manipulation palette called "From DDT" that lets you convert from the Dynamic Data Type to other data types that are more compatible with operations like File I/O....for instance, you could convert your DDT into a 2D array and use the Write To Spreadsheet File.vi.  Just a thought...

  • How to Enforce Sharepoint 2013 content type validation rules when modifying document using Word 2013

    Good day,
    I have two date columns (Start Date and End Date) in a content type in Sharepoint 2013.  A file library uses this content type.
    In the document template I have the two dates (Start Date and End Date) showing in the Document Panel.  I can edit them well enough and they show in the document correctly.
    In the content type I have validation rules that the End Date must be greater than the Start Date. 
    The question is, how can I enforce this validation on the client side in Word.  Is there anyway to achieve this?
    The user will not have access to change the document properties in Sharepoint. (Not my call)
    Thank-you!

    The "panel" is called the Document Information Panel in SharePoint. You can customize this using InfoPath from the page where you created / edited your Content Type. Go to Settings, Site Settings Content Types, edit your content type, click Document
    Information Panel and then click "Edit this template". In InfoPath you can create a Rule to enforce your dates.
    This may require the Enterprise Edition of SharePoint to support the InfoPath Forms Services.

  • Pro Users - What Type Of Audio Interface Do You Use?

    I'm thinking of upgrading from this cheap usb, and was wondering what are some models/brands people have that they'd recommend? Preferrably something reasonably priced that's still a quality interface (if this is possible)?

    you don't say what your 'cheap usb' interface is that you're currently using.. so it's hard to get any idea how many inputs and outputs you want or need. do you require zero latency monitoring for recording? do you want or need digital i/o? what kind of price range are you thinking? do you have a use for something with good quality mic/instrument preamps or do you already have that covered?
    my general rule is to go for the absolute least number of inputs and outputs that you need. I believe it's a better idea that your money goes into quality sound for the amount of i/o channels you actually will use, rather than buying some box with 36 simultaneous bad sounding inputs. many people work almost exclusively using software instruments and audio files inside the box, and when they record, it's only one source at a time. and yet they go buy a MOTU 828 or something cos they think for some reason you're supposed to have lots of i/o just in case. but if you're never going to record a drumkit, or multiple musicians playing at the same time, you're never going to need it.
    figure out what your needs are first and then narrow down your choice to the best quality units you can afford that provide the i/o you can ever see yourself using. then, ask around to figure out which ones have the best drivers and sound.
    if this is for your macbook, then your best bet is to go for firewire. but if you're also using a FW drive for your audio, you're going to want to be careful they'll play nice together cos they're going to be sharing the same data bus.
    lastly, if you only ever need stereo in and out.. you might want to consider getting a device that just works using the optical i/o of your machine. then there are no drivers at all, and the sound quality can be extraordinarily good if you can afford a converter like a rosetta.. all that money will go into absolute premium quality, rather than buying tons of channels that will just gather dust if you have no use for it.
