Is there a way to Share Data Between Custom Probes

Solved!
Go to solution

I'm trying to create a set of custom probes which allow me to time sections of code without having to add code by setting an entry point probe and an exit point probe but to do that, the start time obtained by the entry point probe needs to be accessible by the exit point probe and ideally without doing something slow like writing to a file.  But perhaps this isn't possible due to how probes are executed in LabVIEW?



I saw my father do some work on a car once as a kid and I asked him "How did you know how to do that?" He responded "I didn't, I had to figure it out."

I think you want to kudo this idea.

Short answer is that I don't think it's possible currently.

Sharing data between probes is possible through all the normal LabVIEW mechanism.  Here is one of my favorite timing probes that let you measure how much time passes between two error wires by taking tick measurements when the probe is enters and subtracting the time between them.  I believe these probes use named queues to share data.

I was headed down that road with some named notifiers before I decided my actual work was more important.  But this is exactly what I was looking to create.  Thanks!
