Types of views
There are different types of views in the view pane:
- Built-in views include the
"all_threads" view, process views, and group views. The "all_threads" view contains
all threads in the Network Configurator. The IDE creates a process view for each
process. The process view name is named with the
syntax process_process name
. - You can view threads/processes/groups
in user-created views. These can contain a sub-view which references other views.
If a thread is created in a group or process view in Network Configurator, then the group/process of the thread is what is currently selected.
The IDE also creates a group view for every group and is named with the syntax
group_group name
. All default created views are refreshed based on the Network Configurator
file group_group name
when Network Configurator/Network Monitor is opened.
Network Configurator can be changed separately from the view file. The views in the earlier view file might not be consistent with the later Network Configurator file, especially for default created views. The refresh is performed to makes sure the default created views are up-to-date.
For the "all_threads" view and user-created views in the Network Configurator, the default process name of a new thread is the site name. The default group name is blank.
You can change the process/group of a thread in a selected view in Network Configurator. If the new process/group does not belong to the selected view, then there is a warning message after you click
to commit the change:The new process/group of the thread thread_name does not belong to current view. The thread_name will be removed from this view.
After closing the warning message, the changed thread is removed from the current view and is added to the view to which it belongs.
