Increment local system statistic

Note: Many $functions have been deprecated in favor of Object Oriented methods. There is no OO equivalent for the $IncStat function.

This function allows a user to increment the current value of a local system statistic. There are ten local system statistics that can be incremented with $IncStat. These stats can be examined via $SyStat under the names LOCAL0 through LOCAL9.

The $IncStat function accepts two arguments and returns either the new value of the appropriate local statistic or a 0 if there is an error.

Syntax

%value = $IncStat(stat_num, [value])

%value is set to either 0 or to the value argument.

The stat_num argument is a number that indicates the local stat number to be incremented. This number must be 0 through 9. Otherwise, the $IncStat performs no action and returns a 0.

The value argument is a number that indicates the value that will be added to the local stat. This is an optional argument and defaults to 1.

Example

The following code fragment adds 1 to local stat number 2:

%value = $IncStat(2)
