Understanding the "Common" definition page in the SEM Development Interface

Edit the 'Common' Page

This section describes the purpose of the 'Common' page in a display contained in a SEM library.

Any script text included in the "Common" page is inserted (at run time) into all scripts running on the SEM workstation or on the SEM Agent. It is therefore a good place to put common subroutines that are needed frequently. However, since the text is included in *ALL* scripts, use this feature sparingly. Consider using Include Files instead since these may be included or not as required.

Enter the scripts in the appropriate tab relative to the operating system required. All workstation scripts are written in Perl.
