Compiling an FPGA VI Programmatically

Primary Software: LabVIEW Modules>>FPGA Module
Primary Software Version: 8.6
Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
Secondary Software: N/A

Problem:
I can compile an FPGA VI by either clicking the run button or right-clicking on the FPGA VI in the project explorer and selecting Compile... However, I would like to create a VI to programmatically compile a series of FPGA VIs that I have in my project explorer. Is there a LabVIEW feature to accomplish this?

Solution:
Currently, there is no LabVIEW feature to programmatically call the compile server to compile a LabVIEW FPGA VI.

As an alternative, there are macro programs available for Windows that would allow you to record your clicks. Such as Easy Macro Reader which is a free download (see the related link section). The disadvantage with recording macros is that they are not dynamic.
