I found a document on the NI site addressing the Win API but how do I look up their function/appropriate usage. Maybe a link to the MSDN database?

 

 

 

Hi,

 

In the CVI IDE I am using tags to mark functions as 'ready'. It would be nice if different tags would be available allowing to simultaneously flag several characteristics, such as 'checked', 'verified', 'tested'... I would imagine differently colored flags, possibly similar to the colored flags available in Outlook.

 

In larger projects this might be a useful feature to add some quick 'documentation' of the development status, and using F2 (goto next tag) to go to the next function that is not finished yet, has not been tested, etc.

 

Thanks.

A couple of minor things:

1.  Change it so that if characters like 'µ' are used in the documentation tags, that CVI doesn't generate invalid XML comments files.  Or if that is not possible warn the user if they use characters like 'µ' in the documentation tags.

2.  Make it so that Insert Construct -> Function Documentation Tags (Ctrl-Shift-G) doesn't insert an HIPAR paramater for 'void' for functions that don't have parameters.  Also make it so that it doesn't insert HIRET tags for functions that don't return anything.
