Performance
- The DDE Client driver is capable of communicating with any server that supports the standard CF TEXT DDE data format.
- Clients may reside on remote machines and communicate with this driver via OPC or NetDDE. However, the current version of this driver cannot access data from DDE servers running on remote machines.
- The driver will automatically reconnect when DDE servers are brought back on-line.
- A ReinitializeDDE tag is provided to aid in the resolution of DDE communication failures.
- This driver uses “hot links”, where a DDE server passes data to the driver only when the data value has changed. This provides a significant performance advantage over the alternative request/response loop approach since each DDE transaction is relatively time consuming.
- Addressing uses familiar Application Name Topic Name, and ItemName method for DDE server data.
- All major data types are supported.
