DAQmxSaveTask
int32 DAQmxSaveTask (TaskHandle taskHandle, const
char saveAs[], const char author[], uInt32 options);
Purpose
Saves the specified task and
any local
channels it contains to MAX. This function does not save global
channels. Use DAQmxSaveGlobalChan to save global
channels.
Programmatically saved tasks cannot be viewed in
the DAQ Assistant for versions of NI-DAQ earlier than 7.4. To view
a programmatically saved task in an earlier version of NI-DAQ,
first use the DAQ Assistant in NI-DAQ 7.4 or later to save the
task.
Visit the DAQmx Professional Developer
Tools website for more information and examples of
programmatically saving global channels.
