Access to run time type information

[10Degree]

Hi,

I am looking for some information on how I can enumerate run time type information (lists of properties and methods) from within LabVIEW.  For instance, I would like to be able to generate a list of controls on a front panel (this I figgured out), and then dynamically generate a list of properties for a selected control.  Anyone know how to do this one?

Thanks,

Hi 10(nice alias),

If I am understanding you correctly, you are trying to show a list of all the properties for a selected control. There is no list for these properties that you can readily use...you will have to create the properties list manually depending on the type of control.

Thanks Ankita.  I might poke around a bit more.  Most languages have hooks into run-time type information for controls and components (like an activeX control) you can query it to get this information and then display it in a property-setting dialog box.  There is most likely something like this in LabVIEW too.
