Showing the reload time of multiple qvw's(qvd extractor) in the main qvw

[#1]

Hi

I have couple of qvw's which acts as a qvd extractor(Loading the data in to the qvd) and there is one main qvw which loads the data from these qvd's. What I need is I want to show the last reload time(reloadtime()) of each these qvw's(qvd extractor) in the main qvw.

Anyway idea how to do this? Please help me out!

Hi ,

What you can do is , you load all QVDs from single application .

Means in a TAB ,

1) load the file from your DB,

2) Create a QVD

3) Drop Table

This will help you in creating QVDs without much load on your extraction doc.

Regarding Reload information , you can create tex box & use "=reloadtime()" function to capture the latest reload info.

Hi Bhusan,

Thanks for your explanation.

Why I am using three different qvw's for extracting qvd's just because each of these qvw's reload has been scheduled with different time line. So I cannot have a single application to load the data into the qvd. I must have 3 different qvw's for extracting the data into the qvd and then main application will load the data from these qvd's,

I agree with you point that if I put "=reloadtime()" function in a text box to capture the latest reload info. But how that is going to work when I am using 3 different qvw's to load the data into the qvd.

I want to show the reloadtime() of first.qvw,second.qvw and third.qvw in the main.qvw.

Hope it is undertandable now

you could probably have one more QVD placed at a central location that would be incrementally updated by the three extracting applications. you can have the current time written into this central qvd by the three apps. then load this central qvd into your main app for your reload times.

have an unique id representing the qvw, written from each qvw, along with current time.

Hi Bhusan

You can use the file function filetime(). It takes a file as it's parameter and returns the last time the file was modified/run.

This should help you get the different times for all three files.
