Automatically Change Altered Clusters?

All,


    The programming style I often use is to group elements of data and references etc. into clusters, similar to a class. I then pass these clusters and sometimes arrays of them into SubVIs to use/alter/operate on the data. Sometimes the need arises to alter the definition of these clusters which then breaks the SubVI connectors of that cluster type, is there any easy way to restore these? By easy i mean not replacing the control with a new one and rewiring every time.

Regards,
Kenneth Miller.

Yes, make your clusters a typedef. In conjuction with be sure to also use bundle and unbundle by name wherever possible.

 I agree with Mike in that it sounds like you are looking for "type Definitions".

I wrote about them in this Nugget.
