Notes:

  • This script function only serves diagnostic purposes and must only be used in close cooperation with the support team.

  • To enable trace output, keep the following instructions in mind:

    • The indicated trace option must also be activated in the Administration perspective (Advanced Options - Tracing).

    • Additionally, the specified trace level must at least be as high as set in the properties.

  • The trace output is written to the file specified in the [TRACE] section of the INI file of the Automation Engine, see Automation Engine.

  • The script function LOG_DUMP works similarly but writes the result to the log file and considers all values. For more information, see LOG_DUMP.

Example

In the example below, a trace is activated for several memory ranges. The trace is successful when a database trace with at least one of four trace levels was activated in the properties of the server processes.

:SET &RET# = TRACE_DUMP(2,4, "DB + XAO(XAO_Idnr, XAO_MsgNr), LOCAL_MEMORY, SCRIPT_VARA", "Various Information")
