Does LabVIEW C Generator generates multi-dimensional code or only vectors

[LVCCGUser]

Hi,

What is the C generated code for a LabVIEW VI/block diagram using matrices?

This:

matrixVar[row][column] = value;

Or this?

matrixVar[row*Ncolumns + column] = value;

Thanks,

Ivan

LabVIEW (Plain, RT, etc.) does not generate C code. It processes the diagram into machine code (via DFIR and LLVM).

(Details)

(... or are you talking about this rare beast for embedded targets?)

Yes, I am referring to that rare beast for embedded targets (why called rare beast?).

Thanks, I noticed your other thread.

I called it "rare" because I almost never see it mentioned here. Maybe there is a more suitable forum (embedded, etc. ??), hard to tell for me. 😄

Posted this question on that Labview Embedded threat. Thanks!

LabVIEW multidimensional arrays are an array with the multiplication of all dimension sizes elements, not an array of pointers! It is also what most C libraries use because it is more standard and easier to handle.

Matrixes being in principle simply 2-dimensional arrays make no difference!
