Refresh processing
Refresh processing is what occurs when a fault entry
is being rewritten due to user information, having been updated during
interactive reanalysis. The user information which might cause this
refresh processing is any of the following:
- User name, user title, or lock flag changed via the INFO command or the "File->Fault Entry Information" action-bar pull-down menu option.
- User notes against dump storage addresses added, deleted, or modified.
When user information has changed, then a display
like the example shown in Sample refresh processing
exit prompt is
presented upon exiting the interactive report, which permits the cancellation
of the refresh, or the suppression of the minidump.
The option to suppress the minidump is only included if the fault does not yet include a minidump and the current minidump size exceeds the MaxMinidumpPages option limit in effect.
If instead the reanalysis is performed in batch, then a user exit can be used to perform the equivalent function. This exit is effectively an End Processing user exit, and is specified using the RefreshExits option (see RefreshExits).
