My notes about ICARE

Matlab API

• A message shall be displayed by yapSendCommand when an error occur (same remark for all other functions)
• A command or keyword shall be available in all server to set/read the "log level"
• mmdsvrTestGetImage fails for images > 8000*8000 bytes

labVIEW API

• each VI shall have its own distinct icon
• yapClientConnect : "connexion" output is labelled "bolean"
• the error stack shall be available : the global error handling scheme shall be revisited
• one parameter (connexion id or error stack for exemple) shall be passed from one vi to the other, to help sequencing without exlpicit labview sequence (film strip).
• yapSendCommandData: "buf" output shall be of type "string" instead of double* (string is labVIEW equivalent of C generic pointer void*)
• the yap library in "user lib" contextual menu has a wrong icon and name
• a communication error can crash labview (example: too few data from server)

General

• SETUP/STATUS Keywords are sometimes called "keywords" and sometimes called "parameters" : confusing
