TmSaveTools Procedure

Saves the specified VDA Tools in a file.

Usage

TmSaveTools, filename [, tool_names]

Parameters

filename—A string containing the name of a file in which to save the specified VDA Tools.

tool_names—(optional) A string array of unique VDA Tool names.

Keywords

All—If present and nonzero, all currently running tools are saved in the specified file. This keyword takes precedence over the tool_names parameter.

Discussion

This procedure is designed specifically for use in saving VDA Tools. It differs from the regular SAVE procedure in that it ensures that the Tools Manager data structure is saved properly so that it can be restored later.

If neither the tool_names parameter nor the All keyword is specified, no action is taken.

Example

TmSaveTools, 'vdaapp.sav', /All
