Named User Events?

[Andreas]

Hi,

I worked with notifiers which are named. This way I can call obtain notifier from different locations in a VI and even from other VIs.

Now to the user events. They are defined by the data type and its name, right?
If a don't want to wire the user event refnum to all places on the blockdiagramm where they're needed I just create a copy of what I did to define the event for the first time: same name and data type to another create user event block
But user events of these copies are never handled.
What do I have to do?

Create a functional global with a lookup table that contains the name of the user event and the refnums. Have functionality to add refnums and do that whereever you define the event, and a lookup functionality that if fed the right name gives out the refnum...

Ques and notifiers have this functionality built in...you'll have to make it yourself for events.

Hi and thanks, Mads,

do I have to create a polymorphic functional global in order to handle all kinds of user events' data types?
I recognized that there's no "clean" user event refnum which isn't already containing information about the used data type.
