====== Get_Sysinfo routine    ======


 
==== Description ====
 
Retrieves critical system information, such as the OpenInsight serial number, the station ID, and the maximum number of users, from Open Engine.
 
==== Syntax ====
 
Get_Sysinfo(//)//
 
==== Returns ====
 
The following information is returned, in a tab delimited variable if using the [[receiver|System Receiver property]] of an edit box, or separated by commas if run from the System Monitor:

^Field Number^Description^
|1|Database ID|
|2|Username|
|3|User level|
|4|OpenInsight Serial Number|
|5|OpenInsight Version|
|6|CPU Type|
|7|Math Coprocessor (0 = none, 1 = coprocessor installed)|
|8|n/a|
|9|n/a|
|10|Network Identifier|
|11|Station ID|
|12|Maximum number of users|


Note:  Since Get_Sysinfo() is a routine, the result is not returned directly to the calling routine.  However, by setting the System Receiver property of an edit box, the result can be returned in a window context.  See the example below.

/*  Create a window with an edit box named EDITBOX_RESULTS. If you don't want the edit box to display, uncheck the visible property.
Then create a button and place this code in the CLICK event of the button.

The code below will save system information as a field mark delimited array in an operating system file named C:\SYSINFO.TXT.\
*/

Set_Property ("SYSTEM", "RECEIVER", @window: ".EDITBOX_RESULTS")

Set_Property (@window: ".EDITBOX_RESULTS", "TEXT", "")

get_sysinfo()

system_info = Get_Property (@window: ".EDITBOX_RESULTS", "TEXT")

convert char(9):char(13):char(10) to @fm in system_info

OSWRITE system_info on 'C:\sysinfo.txt'

* reset the receiver property to null.

Set_Property ("SYSTEM", "RECEIVER", "")
