Sending parameters from API i.e. AcReqSetValueString
INTRODUCTION:
=============
This KB entry explains how to use the AcReqSetValue* Api calls
where * is one of the datatypes in Actuate Basic
WHY YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS:
===========================
There has been a lot of tries to use only AcReqSetValue*
and that does not work.
PROCEDURAL APPROACH:
====================
You need to use the AcReqWriteFile to rewrite the .rov (param-file)
in order to change the value of the parameter.
Example:
RUN AcReqReadFile(rov-name, OUTPUT FileNumber).
RUN AcReqSetValueInteger(INPUT FileNumber, INPUT "param", INPUT val)
RUN AcReqWriteFile(FileNumber, rov-name).
