LabVIEW Idea Exchange
Many advanced funtions in the optimization and fitting palettes allow the use of a "VI model" given as a strictly typed VI reference to be defined by the user. A great feature!
LabVIEW provides various templates containing the correct connector pattern. Here is a list of the templates I found:
in labview\vi.lib\gmath\NumericalOptimization:
-
ucno_objective function template.vit
-
cno_objective function template.vit
-
LM model function and gradient.vit
in labview\vi.lib\gmath
-
Zero Finder f(x) 1D.vit
-
Zero Finder f(x) nD.vit
-
1D Evolutionary PDE Func Template.vit
-
2D Evolutionary PDE Func Template.vit
-
2D Stationary PDE Func Template.vit
-
ODE rhs.vit
-
Global Optimization_Objective Function.vit
-
DAE Radau 5th Order Func Template.vit
-
function_and_derivative_template.vit
-
function_template.vit
As you can see, the naming is quite inconsistent:
- all files are templates as is immediately obvious from the file extension! (*.vit
)
- some containing the word "_template" (undescore/lowercase t)
- some containing the word " template" (space/lowercase t)
- some contain the word " Template") (space/uppercase T)
- some don't contain the word template in any form (good! :D)
Since the extension fully defines them as templates, maybe the word "template" could be scrubbed from all the filenames, making things more uniform and consistent.
Idea Summary: remove the word "template" from all model template names that contain it.
