0.6.3

• Major Changes

  • DAQmx 22.0 updates.

0.6.2

• Major Changes

  • Added NI-DAQmx Power Channel APIs.

0.6.1

• Resolved Issues

  • 37: ai_raw example is bad
  • 54: Linux supported?
  • 64: nidaqmx-python and pynidaqmx projects use the same package name
  • 65: ci_count_edges.py REQUIRES A START COMMAND
  • 100: How to clear task and create a new task with same name?
  • 101: Use IntEnum instead of Enum
  • 102: handle types and daqmx versions
  • 117: Error in example
  • 131: task.write for COUNTER_OUTPUT - UsageTypeCO.PULSE_FREQUENCY has frequency and duty cycle reversed
  • 124: nidaqmx_examples/system_properties.py errors out as of version 0.5.7
  • 151: Write functions require writable numpy array
  • 154: Problem with task.write() when not enough buffer free

• Major Changes

  • Scrubbed all examples to ensure they all function correctly and use DAQmx best practices.
  • Added DaqReadError and DaqWriteError subclasses of DaqError that provide important metadata for partial reads and writes.
  • Linux is officially supported.

0.6.0

• Resolved Issues

  • 132: future imports are now all mandatory in the minimum supported python version

• Major Changes

  • Add support for most NI-DAQmx 16.1-21.5 APIs.
    • APIs using time data types are not yet supported.
  • Various other improvements:
    • No more empty docstrings on constants.
    • Fix C API function mapping for attributes - dozens were incorrect.
    • Remove some internal-only enumerations that were unused.
    • (compat breaker) Fix two egregious naming issues when translating the API to SNAKE_CASE. M_HZ is now MHZ (megahertz) and <word>m_VOLTS is now MILLIVOLTS.
    • (compat breaker) Fix various constant names that didn't make any sense.
    • Add a header to all auto-generated files indicating that they should not be edited by hand.

0.5.8

• Merged Pull Requests

  • Bug in InStream.readinto()
  • Fix for Linux where DAQmxGetSysNIDAQUpdateVersion is not available
  • Fix RelativeTo function names to match DLL names
  • fix: exported symbol names
  • fix: dev dependencies to avoid security alerts
  • fix: task.del to use _saved_name
  • remove: python2.7 support
  • update: requirements
  • Fix warning regarding ABC import from collections
  • remove: py2, py27 support from classifiers
  • Correct Network Connection Loss Property

• Resolved Issues

  • Fixed test_many_sample_pulse_ticks test
  • Added a bridge device to test MAX config to enable test_list_of_floats_property to run
  • 36: no version information available

• Major Changes

  • Switched to poetry build system.
  • Updated supported Python versions to 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, and 3.10
  • Updated to latest dependencies
    • Replaced numpy.bool with bool native type

0.5.7

• Resolved Issues

  • 40: is_task_done() cannot be used.
  • 42: register signal event not supported?

0.5.6

• Resolved Issues

  • 32: Incorrect types in samp_quant_samp_per_chan and total_samp_per_chan_generated parameters
  • 1: nidaqmx doesn't work on Python 2.7.13

0.5.5

• Resolved Issues

  • Adding lock around argtypes to prevent race condition between setting argtypes and calling functions, in cases the functions run in parallel.
  • Some special cases needed unconditional locks around both the setting of argtypes and the actual function call, like the variadic power-up state functions in system.py, and the register events functions in task.py.
