Flag

Definition

SpecialEventQMaxInterval=

Enter the number of milliseconds that the current process waits before attempting to resend an event to the queue. This is done if the queue is full when a prior attempt to send the event is made. The default is 10.

This also helps fine tune the system performance.

SpecialEventQSizeLimit=

Type a number to indicate the maximum queue size for internal events. The default is 100. 0 is unlimited.

Once the queue has reached its limit, the workers that try to send these messages will wait until it can be processed.

This flag determines the queue size of the activity thread per server. The activity threads handle various requests (both servers' internal requests and projects' applicative requests). Set a smaller queue limit to ensure that there are not too many activities waiting in the queue. However, in order to achieve the best performance, this flag’s value has to be considered together with other performance considerations, such as: increasing this flag will improve the servers’ performance, but will also increase the memory consumption.

SpecialBeepOnRequest=

During Magic xpi executable module creation, beep sounds can be heard, signaling that certain modules were generated. This flag and the SpecialBeepOnWarning flag determine whether to leave the sound or turn it off. Setting this flag to N will cancel the beep.

SpecialBeepOnWarning=

During Magic xpi executable module creation, beep sounds can be heard, signaling that certain modules were generated. This flag and the SpecialBeepOnRequest flag determine whether to leave the sound or turn it off. Setting this flag to N will cancel the beep.

XMLDomMapper=

When this flag is set to N (default), the destination XML and destination IFCModel are created without loading them to a DOM. This improves the performance of the XML creation in the Data Mapper.

However, when the XML Properties dialog box's Append Data check box is selected, the above destinations will always be loaded to a DOM.

To have the destinations always load to a DOM, you need to close the Magic xpi Studio, change the XMLDomMapper value to Y, open the Studio, and rebuild the project.

ExceptionMessageBoxDisplay=

This flag determines the behavior when a thread terminates abnormally.

When the flag is set to N (default), the erroneous thread is closed and a message is written to the Magic xpi Monitor. An internal clean-up process is executed, the recovery policy defined on that thread is applied, and the Magic xpi Server continues to run.

When the flag is set to Y, a message is displayed when a thread crashes and the entire Magic xpi Server is terminated. This setting may be necessary for debugging purposes (for example, to generate a dump file). After the Magic xpi Server terminates, the recovery policy defined for each thread is applied.
