reference to task

[pdupre]

Hello,

Before, when creating a task, the Vi returned a Task ID, now Create task returns according to the help a reference to the new task, which make sense, however, when probing this "task out" we get the name of the task. This does not make sense.

Hi,

The name of the task that you see when probing "Task Out" is in fact the unique identifier for the task, which is effectively a string rather than a number. This is the name of the task is assigned in Measurement and Automation explorer. If you are creating a new channel within a VI, LabVIEW will generate the name of the task for you automatically. All task names are unique.

Hope this helps,

Regards
