The features are written in the order they appear in the given Filename and without software verification. If the device supports streaming also the device validation is disabled for the individual writes. After writing the settings the device will validate the values.

The device supports streaming if the following features are present:

Std::DeviceRegistersStreamingStart
Std::DeviceRegistersStreamingEnd
Std::DeviceRegistersCheck
Std::DeviceRegistersValid

If only a subset of the listed features are available only these are used.

Loads the settings from the given Filename to the NodeMap.

This function works like the NMLoadSet function except that software validation after writing to the device is performed if Validate is true. The settings in the Filename are compared against the settings in the device.

The callback function, if given, is only called for recoverable errors. If a critical error occurs the function returns always without an additional call. If the operation is canceled the error code is returned by the function.

Attention: Some values may be adjusted by the device. This can happen if values are changed manually in the settings file. Floating point numbers are compared as strings: E.g. the value 1.5 is represented as 1.50, thus enter 1.50 in the settings file to ensure the value is validated correctly.

Parameters

[in]	NodeMap	CVB NodeMap to write settings to.
[in]	Filename	Filename of settings file to load.
[in]	Validate	true if software validation is to be done; false otherwise.

◆ NMLoadSetStringW()

cvbres_t NMLoadSetStringW	(	NODEMAP	NodeMap,
		const wchar_t *	Settings,
		cvbbool_t	Validate,
		TFNodeProc	Callback,
		void *	pPrivate
	)

Loads the settings from the given Settings buffer to the NodeMap.

This function works like the NMLoadSet function except that software validation after writing to the device is performed if Validate is true. The settings in the Filename are compared against the settings in the device.

Attention: Some values may be adjusted by the device. This can happen if values are changed manually in the settings file. Floating point numbers are compared as strings: E.g. the value 1.5 is represented as 1.50, thus enter 1.50 in the settings file to ensure the value is validated correctly.

The callback function, if given, is only called for recoverable errors. If a critical error occurs the function returns always without an additional call. If the operation is canceled the error code is returned by the function.

Parameters

[in]	NodeMap	CVB NodeMap to write settings to.
[in]	Settings	Pointer to Buffer of settings to load.
[in]	Validate	true if software validation is to be done; false otherwise.
[in]	Callback	Function pointer to function to be called on errors; `NULL` if not needed.
[in]	pPrivate	Pointer to user data given in Callback.

Returns: CVC error code: Smaller than zero on error.

◆ NMLoadSetW()

cvbres_t NMLoadSetW	(	NODEMAP	NodeMap,
		const wchar_t *	Filename,
		TFNodeProc	Callback,
		void *	pPrivate
	)

Loads the settings from the given Filename to the NodeMap.

The features are written in the order they appear in the given Filename and without software verification. If the device supports streaming also the device validation is disabled for the individual writes. After writing the settings the device will validate the values.

The device supports streaming if the following features are present:

Std::DeviceRegistersStreamingStart
Std::DeviceRegistersStreamingEnd
Std::DeviceRegistersCheck
Std::DeviceRegistersValid

If only a subset of the listed features are available only these are used.

The callback function, if given, is only called for recoverable errors. If a critical error occurs the function returns always without an additional call. If the operation is canceled the error code is returned by the function.

Parameters

[in]	NodeMap	CVB NodeMap to write settings to.
[in]	Filename	Filename of settings file to load.
[in]	Callback	Function pointer to function to be called on errors; `NULL` if not needed.

[out]	NodeCount	Number of nodes in the NodeMap.

Returns: CVC error code: Smaller than zero on error.

◆ NMPollNodes()

If Filename exists it is overwritten.

The streamable features must be readable and writable.

Streamable features are features for which the NInfoAsBoolean with the NI_Streamable command returns a non zero value.
