Convert LabView NXG 5 code to LabView CG

[andrewDJ]

Is this possible?

Given the demise of NXG, it seems pointless continuing on with that product but I've created a lot of code in it which would be a MASSIVE pain to rewrite in CG, especially as I've never used CG.

I don't see a Community Edition of NXG 5.1 so I presume that hasn't been released (as yet) so I'd need to convert it to LabView 20 Community Edition.

The only way I know of is to port it manually.  😞

That’s what I rather suspected which is a bit of a blow because I have hundreds of VIs.  I’m not sure I can face manually converting them; as an experienced developer I should have followed my instinct and switched when I found the sort of bugs in NXG that I did but believed NI’s message about phasing CG out for the new architecture.  Oh well, at least I don’t use it to make a living.

When the NXG discontinuation was announced, I was told NI had no plans to make a tool to convert from NXG to LabVIEW 20XX.  It would be a somewhat major effort to help the relatively few people who did use NXG.
