Import Enum Item List into a Custom Data Type

Status: Completed

Like described in this article I have to build Custom Data Types manually to pass enum strings to TestStand.

It would be very nice if I could import LabVIEW Enum TypeDefs into Teststand as Custom Data Types. This way I could save a lot of time.

I'd rather get these two ideas:

Support for Creation of Enumerated Type Variables

Link Custom Data Types to LabVIEW Type Defs

Thank you crossrulz for your two links. I gave my kudos to both of them.

I my case a simple text import into Custom Data Types would fit. Adding 500 data type items manually to TestStand isn't quite funny.
