Description |
|
Add |
Click to add a Cache Definition (.rtv) file. Once you have added an Cache Definition (.rtv) file and, optionally, entered a corresponding substitution, click Apply to execute. The Cache Definition (.rtv) file is added to the data source and data for these caches is collected. See the “Attach to Cache Data” section for more information on attaching to cache data variables. Caches that do not specify a name, as well as caches with a duplicate names, will not be created and an error will print to the console. Note: Once a Cache Definition file has been added to the data source, data is collected for that cache regardless of whether any currently open display (.rtv) files are showing that data. |

Cache Definition File |
List of (.rtv) files that contain cache definition settings. |
|
Substitutions |
Specify substitutions for this Cache Definition File. This allows the same file to be specified multiple times with different sets of substitutions. Note: Each cache that is defined in the file should contain a substitution in the cacheName property, since cache names must be unique. Substitutions are optional and must use the following syntax: $subname:subvalue $subname2:subvalue2 If a substitution value contains a single quote, it must be escaped using a / : $filter:Plant=/'Dallas/' If a substitution value contains a space, it must be enclosed in single quotes. Do not escape these single quotes: $subname:subvalue $subname2:'sub value 2' A substitution string cannot contain the following: : | . tab space , ; = < > ' " & / \ { } [ ] ( ) |
Remove Selection |
Select a file from the list and click Remove to delete, then click Apply to execute. The Cache Definition (.rtv) file is removed from the data source and results for this data will no longer be available. |
|
Refresh Selection |
Select a file from the list and click Refresh Selection to reload cache definition settings. This allows you to edit a Cache Definition (.rtv) file and apply changes without restarting the Display Builder. Note: The Refresh Selection option is enabled when you select a Cache Definition (.rtv) file that has been both added and applied. |
