event inspector API

[wiebe@CARYA]

So the new event inspector is a great tool.

It's engine is the VI "EI Get Event Queue Data". If you open it (it's pw protected) it has a warning that reading it clears the data, so if you read it at two locations, both locations get half the data. The VI also works in executables.

It would open up all kinds of possibilities if this data was available to programmers. One example, audit trails. Debugging as well. To me, that sounds great. A great tool would become a great API.

All this would need is a wrapper around EI Get Event Queue Data. Or even a replacement for EI Get Event Queue Data. Only real problem might be that the used dll needs to be stopped when it's data is not cleared. If not, it will probably keep filling memory until running out of it.

Regards,

Wiebe.
