Function Documentation

◆ show_all()

def task_share.show_all ( )

Create a string holding a diagnostic printout showing the status of each queue and share in the system.

Returns: A string containing information about each queue and share

Variable Documentation

◆ share_list

list task_share.share_list = []

This is a system-wide list of all the queues and shared variables.

It is used to create diagnostic printouts.

◆ type_code_strings

dictionary task_share.type_code_strings

Initial value:

=  {'b' : "int8",   'B' : "uint8",
                     'h' : "int16",  'H' : "uint16",
                     'i' : "int(?)", 'I' : "uint(?)",
                     'l' : "int32",  'L' : "uint32",
                     'q' : "int64",  'Q' : "uint64",
                     'f' : "float",  'd' : "double"}

This dictionary allows readable printouts of queue and share data types.
