Where can i find the classID list for Labview 7.0

[Balze]

Hello,

I'm looking for a list of classID for Labview 7.0
I found a list for Labview 6.0, but this list does not include the Subpanel control (for example).
Where can i find an updated list ?

Thanks in advance,

Rainer

Attached is a type def enum with Labview 7.0 public Classe Name and associated Classe ID

Thank you. I usually post on info-labview.

I did not get it from anywhere or anybody, I built it.

One way to do that is to put on a Front Panel all the objects you want to get info about then with VI server you can get access to all of them(Open VI Ref->VI:Front Panel->Panel:AllObjects->Forloop->GObject:ClassID and ClassName) and get their CID and Class Name.

The problem with this is that it only work with object you know about; for the others I used another method.

There is a locked VI in LV7.0 that allows dynamic instanciation of controls. The name of the VI is "Get Contorl From Type Descriptor.vi" and it is located in LVRoot\proje
ct\_NewProbeWizard.llb\Get Contorl From Type Descriptor.vi. If you look at the type descriptor (of unnamed controls) you will see that the third number in the array is the CID. So it is possible to create a VI that generate all the objects refnums (to get their name, manually change them to a constant). I will caution anyone who wants to play with that VI, you WILL (<-no may, but will) crash labview by generating these refnums (so better save your stuff before hand).

That explains why you know how to do this. I am a lurker on that list. I learned most of what I know from that list. I just don't feel worthy to speak before Rolf (and the rest of y'all). And afterwards, what is left to be said. My boss asked me recently "With the Developer Exchange, what purpose does Info-LabVIEW serve?" I said "The Dev-Exchange is like going to LV college, Info-LabVIEW is like grad school."

I will see if I can crash my machine at home this week-end.

Please feel free to contribute on this exchange again in the future. Your contributions would be welcome, and besides, we give out STARS!

"Bird's Eye View"

The last time I saw a response like you recieved for your utility was when Brian Renken anounced the search engine.

Ben, with over a 1000 answers (3 stars average) your contribution is clearly impressive.

Well "only" labview will crash ! 😛
and if you are curious try CID >= 16383

Thank you for the kind words, but in my eyes, Brian Renken search engine is more usefull (at least for me) than the Bird's Eye View utility.
