Rounds x to the nearest integer between x and zero function fails to compile in LV 2010

[FredTest]

Hello to all,

The following attached function fails to compile when running in LV 2010 but not in 2009...is there a specific reason?

((intrz(x*100))/100)???

I think the expression node does not like arrays.  Put it inside a for loop.

The expression node should not have a problem with arrays, however with this particular function it seems to.  The For Loop is a possible workaround.

I simply created a new expression node and the error went away. Some bug in the up-conversion.

[Darin.K]

That is odd. I never upconverted, but still get the error. Does it actually run, or does the broken arrow go away? Sometimes it survives type propagation, but only fails on compilation, for example when run.

I agree, it is NOT an upconversion problem, ...:

Exercises:

Build VI from scratch using a new expression node containing the formula and using arrays as inputs and outputs

• VI will not be broken
• Run VI, VI will be broken.

Disconnect the arrays and wire scalars to the inputs and output

• VI is still broken
• Run the VI, VI will heal itself

Disconnect the scalars and reconnect the arrays

• VI will not be broken until we run it again

This is clearly a bug!

If the expression node function cannot handle arrays, it needs to break the wires and not allow wiring them. (reported here)

[Dennis_Knutson]

You're right. I did not run the VI before.

Hello all,

We appreciate you bringing this to our attention; I'll reproduce the bug and file a CAR. Constant vigilance makes future versions of LabVIEW better!

Thank you,
