search informations about using XML to create scripts (automate tests)

[leo2b]

Hello,

I search some (A LOT OF...) informations  about using XML in Labview. I know that Labview use a specific schema for XML, but I search examples or tutorials.

My aim is to control a VI with a script in XML, I would know if I can generate "while loop", modified attributes etc... with my XML file?

Bye

Hi leo,

first for all others: this is related to this thread!

Then:

Your script should be handled by LabView in an interpreter-style. So you read in the script and parse the commands. For each command that is supported you have to provide the functionality in a state-machine like handling routine.

I would stay away from the before mentioned "LabView scripting", atleast for production-type programs as LV-Scripting is not supported by NI (and not easy to handle...)!

Hello,

I know this thread because I'm the author of this thread 🙂

So I would have more precise informations and documentation.

Interpreter-style? (schema?) I would have some informations about this schema I have found the code files, but I have no explications and I don't know how to use it well.

State-machine? 

XML use command and this command execute a state machine?

I have some questons I am novice that the reason why I need some documentations more precise.

bye

Please see the response in your other thread.

Please keep the discussion to that thread so that people don't have to rehash the same thing, and have all the information available when answering.

ok no problem 🙂

I had create this post because with the other thread people don't see "XML" in the title, so I think people who have informations about XML don't click necessary on the other thread.

Here we go on the other thread !
