"SWITCHABLE" THREAD

[john benevento]

Is it possible to temporarily “turn off” one of the threads from an HIS in order to prevent ADT data from being sent out to an application, without having it accumulate in pending if the thread was simply stopped?  I’m trying to find a more convenient way than swapping NetConfigs every time I need to disable a thread.  Thanks for any suggestions!

I’m not completely clear on what you want to accomplish but there is a way to put a thread on hold.

In the IDE/GUI:

right click on outbound thread –> Control –> Full –> hold

One item of concern is that recycling the trhead for any reason will release the hold.

To release the hold on the outbound thread from the IDE/GUI do:

right click on the outbound thread –> Control –> Release

In the NetConfig you can define the outbound threads to hold.

We have all of our outbound threads configured like this so that when we start all the threads none of them release until we say they can release.

That will save you when you restart an individual thread.

If you want the messages to be killed instead of queueing up, add the proc hcitpsmsgkill as the first proc in your outbound tps and bounce the thread. I’m not sure why you’d want to kill the messages instead of saving them for later delivery.
