I needed to validate an IPv6 address. Unfortunately LabVIEW doesn't provide support to validate any IP addresses therefore I created my own validation function. I used the code from http://crisp.tweakblogs.net/blog/3049/ipv6-validation-more-caveats.html and ported it to LabVIEW, so the credits go to him.
This VI includes the following functions;
- ip2long
- long2ip
- explode
- substr_count
- strpos
- strrpos
- number_to_boolean (little unnecessary but I dislike using the "greater then 0" vi to indicate that I just want to have my number converted to a boolean.)
- Validate IPv4
- Validate IPv6
The string functions from php I just converted them to LabVIEW because I think these can always come out in handy. When I'm doing something different with strings.
Enjoy!
ps. if anyone has a better function of one of the subvi's or validation vi's I'm glad to hear about it.
