Creating a Message

Create Messages to modify the state of non-override member VIs within your Actor. These Messages inherit from Message.gtype and have implementations for methods Do and Send.

If you have not already, create an Actor.

1. Open a project.
   

   Tip

   NI recommends using the Actor Framework template on the launcher.

2. In the Project Files tab, locate the Actor you want to create Messages for.
3. Right-click the Actor and select Actor Framework» Create messages for Actor . Message classes for each of your non-override member VIs appear in the adjacent Messages namespace for your Actor.
