wire connected to invisible terminal

[aman_bajra]

Could anyone help me out in this. I have no clue how "flatten to string" is connected to "type descriptor" of "Invoke node" in the attached VI "question.vi" . I can find no terminal on "flatten to string " to reconnect this wire after I have deleted it. I got this VI during a NI connectivity training. I am confused about to which terminal in "flatten to string" this 1 d array is connected to. Seems like I am missing out on some basic.

Hey,

Just convert your type descriptor to I32. Since LabVIEW 8.x typedescriptors stored in 32bit flat representation, before it was in 16bit flat representation.

If you have any furhter troubles you will find more information on this topic wihtin the LabVIEW help.

Thank you.  I still wonder why they removed this terminal in new version

Sorry, I forgot how to get the typedescriptor terminal from the flatten to string: In the "flatten to string" functions context menu you will find as last entry "Convert 7.x Data", then you will get the additional terminal and the date will be converted for an earlier format. BTW, you can also convert to 4.x data if you first wire a boolean to the "anything" terminal.
