Add an IO Server programmatically to a shared variable library

[Garena]

We require to programmatically Add an EPICs IO server to a shared variable library like you can do manually from the project explorer as shown in the picture:

Currently, there is a way to create an EPICS IO server programmatically with the function but this function will not save the EPICS IO server on a Shared variable.

We require to save the EPICS IO server to the library, then save the library(.lvlib file) to disk so we can later deploy the library.

Note that this feature exists for Shared Variables already. We're looking for parity between I/O Servers and Shared Varaibles.

Check out the function distributed with LabVIEW called AddSharedVariableToLibrary.vi

What we'd like to do is create all of the Shared Variables, add them to the library, then create I/O Server Servers bound to those Shared Variables and add them to the library at the same time.

Currently there is the functionality to add Shared Variables but not to add the I/O Servers connected to those Shared Variables.

This isn't an all new feature since the task can be accomplished graphically. It's just adding the functionality of doing programmatically what can be done graphically in the same way that this vi was created to bridge it for SVs.
