Reports Executing Cicode in Vijeo Citect

Hi--

My project has legacy cicode that is executed via a periodic report.  I can't find documentation on how this works.  Can you describe this function for me?  For instance, in the configuration of the report, how is the executing function determined?

Also, are there reasons why this would be done instead of defining an event?  My vijeo citect configuration is redundant servers.

Thanks,

  • Hi,

    check the help topic : "Visualization > Reports > Format a Report". By making the block {CICODE} in a report it will treat all calls in there as cicode.

    Events need to be set up per process from the ini (and this is prone to configuration errors).
    By using reports you make sure the cicode always runs only on the report server process and if you would set [Report]RunStandby=0 it will only run in the primary report process, so not in parallel.
