DMSave Procedure

Saves all data that is managed by the JWAVE Data Manager to a file.

DMSave, filename

filename A string containing the name of the file in which to save the data.

Verbose Prints information to the screen about the data that is being saved.

This example code can be used in a shutdown routine (a JWAVE wrapper called initially by the client, or by JWAVE_SHUTDOWN). This example first removes (deletes) any data that has been stored in a domain named TEMP. Then, everything else is saved to a DM data file. That file may be restored (with DMRestore) for later use by another session.

   ; Enumerate all data stored in the TEMP domain
   temp_data = DMEnumerateData('TEMP')
   IF temp_data(0) NE '' THEN BEGIN
      ; Remove all data from TEMP domain
      FOR i = 0, N_ELEMENTS(temp_data)-1 DO BEGIN
         DMRemoveData, ['TEMP', temp_data(i) ]
      ENDFOR
   ENDIF
   ; Save everything else
