Does anyone have a measure of how much effort would be required to convert a LabWindows application to LabVIEW?
The application has about 4,500 lines of code, with 15 user interface panels.
Basically, it's a data logger that has been customised over the years (15 years !) to add functionality. With only 10 inputs, it's not a big application, but it has a number of user friendly facilities that have developed over time. Now it's a bit too big for spaghetti C-code to be assessed for reliability and would be better implemented in LabVIEW with it's inherently proven code and wiring paradigm. It has two threads, one to scan the inputs every 40 milliseconds and log the data, and one to update the user panels every 250 milliseconds. Some graphs are updated on the main panel while logging the data, the other panels are used for input calibration and administrative tasks.
Has anyone done any conversion between LabWindows and LabVIEW?
