EventInterval property expires, OpenLNS will not call the
GetNextEvent service right away. Instead, it will wait until
the next event (or set of events) occurs, deliver that event to
the client, and then immediately call GetNextEvent (because
the interval has already expired). Following that, OpenLNS
will call the GetNextEvent service at the interval defined by
this property.
Note that as you set this property to lower and lower values,
more and more request-response messages will be sent to the
server. You should keep this in mind when setting this
property, as it may cause more network traffic than you
desire.
This property is not applicable to Local Client and Full Client
applications because the OpenLNS Server delivers events to
those clients as soon as they occur. However, you can change
the default value used by all of the Lightweight Clients on
the network by changing the value of this property on a Local
Client. By changing the value of this property on a
Lightweight Client application, you change the value used by
that client only.
Availability
