myRIO on later versions of LabVIEW (Beyond 2021)

[petrus.prins]

Dear Esteemed Delegates

I have been working on a "solution" to get myRIO toolkit working on other versions of LabVIEW.   I have come up with the idea to make a custom installer to get the job done. (I have tested it successfully on LV2022Q3.) I would really appreciate it if someone else out there could help me test this on some other versions of LabVIEW? It is still early days for this project but it is functional.  If anyone is willing to help/test/contribute and provide feedback, it would really be appreciated! 
The latest release is on github:

Thanks for working on this. I'm unable to install the installer myself (due to work commitments), but you might find it useful to re-post this in the #rt channel of the LabVIEW Discord server.

You might want to consider installing to lvaddons. Then it is a single install for LabVIEW 2022Q3 and later.

Hi crossrulz

That is a very good suggestion. I will definitely have to go do my homework on how to get that done. As soon as I am finished/happy with the current intaller, I will try to port it to lvaddons. The later does sound to be the more future proof way to go. 

I wonder how lvaddons handles legacy help file locations and example finding? So far that is the only thing I know of that needs attention in the current intaller. (Still a work in progress, of course)
