Metacode, aka code that writes code. Is there any way to write a code generator (in any language) that outputs LabVIEW / G code, something I can call as a VI?
For example, writing DB interface code is tedious. Not hard, but repetitive, and with mindless repetition comes mistakes. Concrete example of metacode: I have a parser that takes the SQL create table statements and generates PHP code to do things like ReadFoo, WriteFoo, FindFoo. I only have to debug my read/write/find logic once, and each table gets its own set of functions.
