Running a Clash Set as a Scheduled Batch Job

Functionality to run a clash set can be called from a PML macro, either interactively or as part of scheduled task. Refer to Running AVEVA Clash Manager from the Command Line Interface for further information.

Running AVEVA Clash Manager from the Command Line Interface

AVEVA Clash Manager provides a PML capability to start up and run clash sets from the command line.

Start AVEVA Clash Manager from the command line by instantiating the clashManagerInterface object, which will then create the core clashManager object.

!!clashManagerInterface = object clashManagerInterface()

List the available clash sets to the command line by calling the listClashSets method.

!!clashManager.listClashSets()

Run a clash set by calling the runClashSet method.

Note:

Only one clash set run can be active at a time, so call the wait method between consecutive clash set runs to chain them.

Once a clash set run has completed its last run date and comment will be visible in the Clash Sets form.

		!!clashManager.runClashSet(!clashSetNumber is REAL, !comment is STRING)
!!clashManager.wait()
!!clashManager.runClashSet(!clashSetNumber is REAL, !comment is STRING)
!!clashManager.wait()

In graphical mode use the show method to display Clash Manager main form.

!!clashManager.show()

Customising Clash Manager

Clash Manager provides the clashManagerHandler PML object to customise specific behaviours if required on the project. Refer to Customise AVEVA Clash Manager for further information.
