Implementation Guidance¶

This guide shows how to use Jake when implementing new functionality in LabVIEW. Follow these workflows to ensure your implementations are robust and maintainable.

Pattern Selection¶

When starting a new implementation, begin by identifying the appropriate design pattern:

$ @project What pattern would best suit these requirements?

Jake will analyze your needs and suggest appropriate patterns, explaining: - Pattern benefits - Implementation considerations - Potential challenges - Alternative approaches

Implementation Process¶

Follow this process for clean implementations:

Get pattern guidance:

$ @bd Show me how to implement this pattern

Review initial implementation:
```
! @bd Review my pattern implementation
```

Verify error handling:

$ @bd Check error handling completeness

Common Implementation Tasks¶

State Machine Implementation¶

$ @bd Guide me through implementing a state machine for this workflow

Producer/Consumer Pattern¶

$ @bd Help me implement a producer/consumer architecture

Event Handling¶

$ @bd Show me how to implement event handling for these controls

Verification¶

Before completing implementation:

Review code quality:
```
! @bd Verify implementation quality
```

Check pattern adherence:

$ @bd Verify pattern implementation correctness

Document the implementation:
```
+ @bd Document this implementation
```

Remember to use Jake's pattern command ($) frequently during implementation to ensure you're following LabVIEW best practices.
