Hierarchy Viewer

The Worker Hierarchy Viewer tool shows you the Worker call-chain hierarchy of a Worker and its subWorkers. The tool shows both statically linked and dynamically loaded subWorkers.

Workers dynamically loaded from a Common Cases.vi in a Worker base class are currently not detected.

Using this tool is simple. You select a Worker from the Workers in (target) list, and press View Tree. The tool will then iterate through the Worker you selected and its subWorkers, and generate the Worker's call-chain hierarchy, displayed as a tree using the class icons of each Worker.

Options

Workers in (target)

The Workers detected on the chosen target.

Refresh

Will refresh the list and redraw the tree.

Good to know

This tool works well together with the Create/Add Worker tool. You can have them both opened side-by-side, and every time you add a new Worker to your application with the Create/Add Worker tool, you can press Refresh and see the addition of the new Worker in your application.

View Tree

Will display the Worker call-chain hierarchy for a selected Worker from the list.

Save Image

Allows you to save the generated image as either a PNG, JPG or BMP file.
