Most Sirius $functions have been deprecated in favor of Object Oriented methods. There is currently no OO equivalent for the $SetStat function.

This function allows a user to set the current value of a local system statistic. There are 10 local system statistics that can be set via $SetStat. These stats can be examined via $SyStat under the names LOCAL0 through LOCAL9.

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

The first argument is the local stat number to be set. This number must be 0 through 9 or the $SetStat performs no action and returns a 0.

The second argument is a number that indicates the value to which the local stat is to be set. This is an optional argument and defaults to 0.

Syntax

<section begin="syntax" /> %VALUE = $SetStat(stat_num, value) <section end="syntax" />

$SetStat Function

%VALUE is set to either 0 or value.


This function can be used to initialize a local statistic. For example, the code fragment

%VALUE = $SetStat(1)

initializes local stat number 1 to 0.
