srvr_runHasBegun

Synopsis

      #include "runnum.h"
      int srvr_runHasBegun( void );
      void srvr_BeginRun( unsigned short runnum, run_params *rp );

Description

Each instrument's command server needs to supply these two functions. They are closely related to the functions defined in status.h except these don't take arguments. It is the responsibility of these functions to call the ones in status.h with the appropriate [instrument-specific] arguments.

srvr_BeginRun() receives a copy of the run_params structure, allowing it to take arbitrary action based on the contents. At present, this structure does not include the run type (Kinetics, ProductStudy, etc.), but that information probably should be embedded in the specified algorithm code.

Returns

srvr_runHasBegun() returns non-zero if a run is current executing. srvr_BeginRun() returns void.
