readpt [-bh] [-d domain] [pointname]...
The name of the point to retrieve information for. Multiple points can be specified.
Brief output. Print only the point name and value.
The domain name of the desired datahub. This replaces the default, which is "default".
Print a help message and exit.
The readpt utility will retrieve the value of a point from any available Cascade DataHub. If a point cannot be found a new point will be created in the DataHub it was queried from. The domain can be specified with -d, or by qualifying the pointname, as in domain:pointname (the latter technique overriding the former).
The source code for this utility is normally installed in the /usr/cogent/src/datahub directory, and can also be viewed at the Reading from the Cascade DataHub appendix of the Cogent C API manual. |
