I re-read Jays suggestion and now I would go with something like that
Edit: No need for the error wire in the loop and if no label matches return 'not a reference'.
Excellent! Extra kudos in tag. Although, I would rearrange the diagram so that the terminals match the connector pane. That's just a style practice.
My snipped does not have a connector pane 😉 , but when I look at the VI connector pane from OP I think the terminals match the connector pane perfectly.
Fair enough, those wires should have been uncrossed by rearranging the cluster order!
As long as the subvi above has error in, USE IT so not a refnum is returned on error OR no match.
Error handling: in general we, devepers, should strive to:
- maintain every upstream error
- Do nothing time consuming with error in
We WANT everything to fail downstream until the dam breaks! This post is a beautiful example of how a developer can wrap themselve around an axil! The OP got distracted by the 1057 error when the real problem was "stuck in the muck" from behind a dam.
