Parameter Discussion
daqStatus is the status code returned from the NI-DAQ function used right before this function.
functionName is a string that identifies the function associated with the status code.
ignoreWarning specifies whether to ignore NI-DAQ status codes that are positive (NI-DAQ Warnings) or not. To ignore the warnings, set this parameter to 1.
status is the return code of this function. Possible return codes are the same as the following functions:
CVI: MessagePopup
DLL: MessageBox (Windows API)
Using This Function
Use the function to check if the NI-DAQ function returned an error or warning code. The error codes are negative, and the warning codes are positive. It is recommended that you check errors after every single NI-DAQ function.
In the DLL version of NIDAQErrorHandler, you can determine which button was pressed in the dialog box by examing the returned status code
. For example, if the No button was pressed, then this function will return ID_NO. And if the Yes button was pressed, this function will return ID_YES.
I hope this helps
