Displaying queue

[Sebastian2011]

I have a queue with various fields.  How do I display message in GUI?  The queue will send and recieve data via UDP.  The queue is coming in from the left.  Thanks.

Mike, the noobie.

In order to display queue items on a front panel you must dequeque/preview queue item and send it to an indicator.

I needed to troubleshoot a queue, and wanted to look at the entire queue as a list.

I used the "flush queue", fed that into a string array indicator, and into an auto-indexed for loop which rebuilds the queue.  This worked well to view the queue in real time and troubleshoot the source and timing of extra or missing elements.

Hi Bill,

instead of flushing the queue and re-inserting all elements into the queue you could use GetQueueStatus to get a preview of all elements in the queue…

Hello GerdW,

      I tried using Get Queue Status on multiple occasions, the array indicator always shows up blank when the program is running.  I am passing strings as queue elements, could that have something to do with it?

Regards,

Bill

There is a Boolean input on the Get Queue Status to "return elements".

Ahh, details, the Boolean fixed it.  Definitely a "Read the Manual" moment.  Thank You.
