Demonstration

The package contains a small executable, testplot.exe. The source code for the executable, "testplot.cpp", is provided as well. Running the executable willt produce a data file "testplot.txt". The file will be updated every 1 second with curves of sin & cosine. A new data line is added at each update, until x=20. Then, it will restart from x = 0. The configuration file, "testplot.xml", is set with the auto_x_scroll tag enabled.

To start the demo type the following two lines in a console window:


			start /LOW /B testplot.exe
rtplot068 -x testplot.xml

Note: Windows 95/98/ME does not accept the /LOW /B parameters to start. On these systems just omit the parameters in the first line.

A maximized plot window is opend with two curves (red & green) being updated every second. To stop the updates right-click anywhere in the plot window area and select freeze from the popup menu. Selecting later unfreeze will restart the motion of the plots.
