Visa Device Handler

Based on the visa crate, this crate aims to provide a wrapper to allow multiple device connections and handling, and make the usage of NI-VISA easier to use.

The crate supports Windows, and sould support Linux and MacOS. but is being tested mainly on Windows.

Example

let sdm_result:SafeDeviceMap = SafeDeviceMap::init(None);
match sdm_result {
    Ok(mapper) => {
        mapper.connect_device("address_01".to_string());
        let data = mapper.query_from_device("name_01".to_string(),"cool funcation with args").unwrap();
        println!("got {} from the device",data);
        mapper.disconnect_device("name_01".to_string());
    }
    Err(e) => {/*print codes or anything */}
}

Tauri

The next Tauri project utilizes the crate as a peripheral for NI-VISA. https://github.com/LiorBuch/showcaser. this project uses React and Mantine as the UI, it's not failproof as it's just a POC.

Change Log 0.4.0

• Fixed the disconnect issue.
• Cleaned structure.

Change Log 0.5.0

• All Device operations now use its address, more uniform approch since the address is always presented.
