DMStoreData Procedure

Stores a dataset in the current PV-WAVE session.

DMStoreData, data_name, value

data_name A scalar string containing a data name (in the default domain, $GLOBAL) or a 2-element string array containing a domain name and data name.

value The data that you wish to store.

Storage for the domain and data are automatically created if they do not already exist. If data_name already exists, it is overwritten. The data_name is used to uniquely identify a dataset stored on the JWAVE server. Normally, the data_name is set in the JWAVE client application.

To be valid, the data_name input parameter name must begin with a letter. The name is not case-sensitive, and may contain letters, underscores, and numbers.

The data specified with value can be of any PV-WAVE data type. Note that client applications can only store on the server scalars and arrays (up to eight dimensions) of the following data types:

JAVA Data Types	Corresponding PV-WAVE Data Types
Byte	BYTE
Short	INTEGER
Integer	LONG
Float	FLOAT
Double	DOUBLE
String	STRING
