How to TestStand context in Labwindows?

[Ravitej]

Hi,

I have created an UIR in Labwindows/CVI that hase "browse" button attached to a "message box". Refer UIR.bmp file in the attachment.

Clicking on "browse" button of message box should be able to open Expression Browser of TestStand and the user should be able to access any of the variables of this window. Refer ExpressionBrowser.bmp file in the attachment.

How to get context in CVI code to accomplish the same?

Thanks in advance,

Ravitej

Hi Ravitej,

Could you explain in a little more detail what your trying to accomplish. Are you trying to build an operator interface in CVI? Do you just need to access TestStand variables?

Perhaps the link Getting a List of TestStand Variable Names Programmatically is what you are looking for. This example doesn't have a user interface but it does show how to access the variables. Then you could populate a tree control in CVI with those variable names. 

Hope this helps!

Best Regards,
