Pop-up menu for events

The pop-up menu for events on the event lines offers the following functions:

Show details

Show details is available for each event in the TimeLine diagram. Depending on the position of the mouse pointer, it shows you different dialogs.

For events on the trace and transaction event lines, one of the following dialogs is displayed:

For events of the generic events line, the following dialog is displayed:

For events on the miscellaneous events line, one of the following dialogs is displayed:

The information in these dialogs contains data on each event and is more detailed than the information of the status line. Double-clicking on an event in the TimeLine diagram shows you the corresponding dialog immediately.

To close these dialogs, select OK or use the system menu.

Show current environment

Show current environment displays the Current Environment dialog that gives you information on the current settings that define the ObjectStore client environment, the database environment, or the segment environment for your application's process.

Settings for the client environment are available for the events trace start, trace resume, and change of client environment. Settings for the database environment are available for the event open database. OPE shows you a selection of the most important settings. For information on additional events for which you can view environment settings, refer to "Show current environment".

With the environment variable OS_OPE_COMPLETE_ENV you specify whether information for the client or database environment is to be retrieved (for a description of the environment variable see Defining the Control Data). To obtain this information, OPE starts its own transactions, which are shown in the application trace. If you want to avoid these transactions, you can view only the setting that is changed and not the complete list of environment settings.
