Add "Interfaces" vi's to OO

[mishklyar]

Something like "pure virtual functions" in C++,  I think it makes code more clear.

Interfaces and pure virtual functions are two very distinct features.

[mishklyar]

Shure, pure virtual functions is just an example of implementing interfaces.

It would be nice to have something similar in LabVIEW.

I would vote for Abstract classes or functions but I agree that "interfaces" are something else entirely.....

Vote.... Don't vote...... Hmmm.

If it isn't taken as being rude, I'll make a new suggestion for Abstract classes.....

I hope you don't mind, I've created a separate request for abstract classes since the title of this request mentions Interfaces which is indeed something else.

Why NI is taking so long to implement this? I am just updating LabVIEW if they improve LVOOP with interfaces suport!!!

C'mon, please implement this, make something just like java interfaces for labview interfaces!

I imagine that would be like a labview class but without the "<ClassName>.ctl" and it does not contains full VIs, but just the front panels (with VI connector).

In Class Properties, near Inheritance configuration would have the implementing interfaces, that could be choosen from this ones.

This is still multiple years away on the roadmap. I wish it were sooner but there are other priorities requiring develoeprs.
