Creating a configuration file using WinConfig

Schedule...

This menu item permits the input of entries for the SCHEDULE statement.

The SCHEDULE statement is used to explicitly assign the specialist classes, class meth- ods, instance methods and functions to the TAC classes with the priorities HIGH, MEDIUM and LOW (see section 6.2 on page 46).

The following list window is displayed when this menu item is called:

Figure 23 Dialog window: SCHEDULE-System

The list window displays the current SCHEDULE statement entries for the system. There are no default settings. The elements displayed in the list window are transferred to a configu- ration file (within the Schedule block) when saved.

The current settings can be modified using the Del Statement and Add Statement but- tons.

Deleting an entry

Mark an entry in the display area with the left mouse button.

Click on Del Statement with the left mouse button.

Inserting an entry

Insert the entry for the SCHEDULE statement in the input fields beneath the display area. The meaning of the input fields is as follows:

Input field 1 Allows you to enter one of the keywords CLASS, CLASSMETHOD, INSTMETHOD or FUNCTION.

Input field 2 Allows you to enter the ClassId (not required if FUNCTION was entered in the first input field).

Input field 3 Allows you to enter the ClassmethodID, InstMethodId, FunctionId (not required if CLASS was entered in the first input field CLASS).
