Using SoftBench Message Monitor
Composing and Sending a Message
Chapter 12310
A message resembling the following appears in the SoftBench Message
Monitor Broadcast Messages area:
Softmsg.nn 29-25966-tycho R EDIT WINDOW <host> <dir> <oper>
Assuming the appropriate editor successfully edits the file, it sends the
following message in response to the request: For SoftBench vi Editor:
softvi.2 29-25966-tycho P EDIT WINDOW <host> <dir> <oper>
For SoftBench XEmacs:
softemacs.3 29-25966-tycho P EDIT WINDOW <host> <dir> <file>
Notice that the above examples contain no real data. The data is in the
form:
<executable>.<nn> <msgId> <type> <tool> <command> <host> <dir> <file> <data>
where nn is a unique number assigned by the Broadcast Message Server
(BMS) to identify this invocation of this tool.
