Now, when you share a project, the data files will be sent along with the application. NI is investing in this exact scenario to automatically save data to the project and to collect data without programming (as discussed in a previous blog). Now, currently in LabVIEW we have the project to organize and store your VIs, subVIs, controls, documentation, libraries, etc., but our question to you is, "where is the data?" Why is that data you are collecting in your application not automatically saved to the project?

And sure, the second time around it goes by faster, but sometimes this just isn’t an option and capturing the data is critical. When test data is lost, you go through the same process. So you say a few choice words, put your head down, and re-create all of the work you just lost. All of a sudden PowerPoint crashes and you realize the last time you saved was 30 minutes ago! And of course auto-recovery doesn’t fully capture all of the changes you made in the last hour. Imagine yourself working on a PowerPoint presentation and you are in your groove. Did someone forget to move the data from the test machine to the final data store? Was the spreadsheet you were analyzing closed without saving any changes? Did a test fail and cause a corrupt file to be created? One effect of losing data could be that a test has to be re-run. There are a million scenarios where data can get lost.

The software builds available today demonstrate investment in these 6 key areas: Through this program, you can access pre-release software builds, product guides, reference materials, help modules, and discussion forums to help you along the way. NI also announced the NI Software Technology Preview, a program designed to provide current users of NI software active on a Standard Service Program contract with an early look at conceptual capabilities.

You might think that the features you’ve see over the past few releases, such as Channel Wires, represent the totality of the investment being made in LabVIEW. To ultimately improve your productivity in building engineering systems, NI has consistently invested in abstracting low-level programming tasks, exposing leading technologies and compute platforms, maximizing performance and memory management, and of course doing all of this inside of a stable platform. The release of LabVIEW 2016 just a few short weeks ago marked the 30-year anniversary of the seminal 1.0 launch of LabVIEW on the Mac.
