Usage of Events over Case Structure

[Suresh T]

Hi,

I want to Know what are the advantages if using Events over case strutures.

Is memory useage less in case of events.

With regards,

Hi Suresh

I think you can't just compare these two structure types, as they have a different purpose.

I assume you're about to create an application, so I'd suggest you to study the producer consumer design pattern. There are both of these structures used to separate program-logic and reaction to user-inputs.

Hi Suresh,

There actually was some good discussion about the relative merits of Event Structures and Case Structures at this post: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=133228&requireLogin=False.

Take a look at what our posters had to say and post if you have any futher questions!

Good luck!
