Question on Coersion

[dj143]

Why is there a coersion dot in the attached example?  I'm using XP-Pro and LV 8.20

You use two different typedefs, although the low-level data types are the same, is the cluster itself not the same. The names of the sgl's are different.

It's not clear why type definitions will cause a coersion.  I appreciate your response and I'll fix the type def issue.  Sorry for the long reply.  I was on vacation.

Thanks,

The coercion dot is ther to bring to your attention that that LV has done some guessing about how the data in one typedef matches up with the other.

Contrary to popular belief, not all coercion dots are a sign of a data copy or duplication. They are a sign that there MAY be a data copy.

it occured to me that I should include a warning to those that have not passed the CLAD or CLD exams. In that case, froget what I said.
