Designer Panel Overview | bridge_base | Multiexcerpt |
---|
MultiExcerptName | bridge_base |
---|
| The Bridge Base library is supplied as standard in the Designer and cannot be deleted from the library panel. The library contains the Bridge base types: - Any
- Blob
- Boolean
- DateTime
- Float
- Integer
- String
Most of these base types are only able to hold one single piece of information, like text in a string, true or false in a boolean, or binary data in a blob. If you wish to associate several bits of information, you have to define a complex type that combines a number of independent base types and possibly other complex types. Such complex types are modeled as classes in UML. To use your own classes, define them in a library and upload this customized library to the Designer. |

---|
Allow Parallel Executions | If checked, each time a scheduler pattern matches, the scheduler activity diagram is executed - even if another execution is already running. If not checked, the next execution cycle is suppressed if an execution diagram is already being run. | Checked | Year(s) | Insert a positive integer or a pattern. | * | Month(s) | Use numbers 1 to 12 or a pattern. | * | Weekdays(s) | Valid input: - Mon or Monday
- Tue or Tuesday

Repeat Interval | Enter a valid time duration expression (see page Time Durations in the BRIDGE documentation for detailed information). This setting defines the time interval between two calls of the timer action. | - | Occurrences | Insert a positive integer to define the count of repetitions. If you want the timer to be endless, check Always (default). | Always | First Occurrence | Enter a valid time duration expression (see page Time Durations in the BRIDGE documentation for detailed information). This setting defines the wait interval after service start before the timer is executed for the first time. | 0 seconds | Parallel Events | Insert a positive integer. Defines the count of timer event handlers that are allowed to run in parallel. If an event cannot be processed within the repeat interval, a new thread will be started that processes the next event - as long as the number of parallel events is less than the value in this box. 1 = no parallel execution (default) | 1 | Queued Events | Insert a positive integer to define the number of events being queued if an event cannot be processed within the repeat interval. | 1 |
