alternative to this

[nolsqn]

hi all

i need your help....

please look at my VI attched. what i have done is that i have bunch of options and when user press any of those options it is compared with an existing array constant and then executes the specific program whcih would be in its respective case structure. 

now i know that this is very basic programing approach and when my options will increas it would be very difficult to handle the second case structure .

At the end what i want to do is that i would be getting data from the serial port which will get compared by the array constant and then the specific case structure will execute.

So my question is that is there any other way to implement this ... a rather more professional approach ?

It is easy! Just add any cases to Case Structure as shown in attachment.

Sorry, a have made an error...

I think You mean this...

[kolan]

And if You want to uses events it is a good idea to handle "On Value Change" in this case...

hi kolan

thanks for the help but this is not what i need ......what i need help with is that the compare function ..........okay to make things more clear  

i will put my question like this how can i compare things more efficently ... like in my case i have use an constant array and i m getting the data to compare with, from the radio buttons... so any other way to do the compare thing more effectively ?

CAn you also post a screen shot?

[kolan]

How about this example? (look at the atachment)

Program choose an event by radio-button's label.

From what i understand your program generates the string "Program2" when you select the radiobutton "Case2".

A simpler solution would be the following:

I think, muks wants to see map<string,string> C++ analog to make association case#->program# but not a standard massive index number#->program reflection...
