nested cluster indexing controls[]

[borderm3]

Hi,

As part of another forum post seen here. http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/write-cluster-to-spreadsheet-programatically/td-p/2500290

I am having trouble with nested clusters and autoindexing values from them using property nodes and for loops.  It will only index the first layer, which are all clusters.  I need to be able to index the next layer under the clusters.  Attached is an example of how it works with a non nested cluster.

TIA

Chris

I have a working solution (at least I think it is) but it uses alot of OpenG.  Attatched is a VI that will get the values of a cluster and flatten it to a string.  It supports String, Path, Boolean, Numeric, and Cluster type as nested as you want using while loop recursion to go through them all.  The specific package in OpenG that is used is the LabVIEW Data package.  Saved in 2012.

Search for "Cluster Toolkit" in VIPM.  It's developed by Autotestware.  There may be something in that toolkit that might be of use to you.

Make the VI reentrant and if it's a cluster type, send that cluster in recursively. 🙂
