LLAMA: LabVIEW Event Logging Framework<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

LLAMA is an easy to use, lightweight, configurable event logging framework for LabVIEW desktop and RT applications. It supports logging to text files and virtual consoles out of the box, and its object-oriented structure allows application developers to add their own log targets (such as a database or a special file type) and log entry types.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
\"LLAMA<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

LLAMA is written entirely in LabVIEW, and is free and open source. The framework is distributed as a VI Package, so VI Package Manager<\/a> is required for installation. Once VI Package Manager is installed, double click on the package to install it. Once installation has been completed successfully, LLAMA VIs should show up in your LabVIEW palette.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feel free to send fixes or useful feature adds to DMC’s Engineers<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
