LabVIEW Interface Example

[ASTDan]

Hello,

I have been looking at interfaces in LabVIEW 2020.

Can Interfaces inherit from another class?

In the shipping example in LabVIEW 2020 there is a Lever Interface.  A lever is a tool.  So should/can the lever interface inherit from tool?  Is this a good idea?

I tried to set the inheritance in the Lever Interface and it looks like an interface can only inherit from LabVIEW Object.

Right on the front panel in bold...

A class may inherit from only one parent class but as many parent interfaces as needed for its role in the software. Inheriting from an interface allows that class to be wired to any terminal of that interface type.

Hi

I have a question about the House Key.
Why is it not inherit from Tools? I see it as a tool.

Thank in advance
