awSetFormatMode

BrokerBoolean awSetFormatMode(
char *format_option,
char *mode);

format_option	The format option to be set.
mode	The format mode to be set.

Sets the mode for the format_option. Returns 1 (true) if the mode was altered, otherwise 0 (false) is returned.

Consider the following format string:

column1 = ${field1:v}, column2 = ${field2:v}

If you can call this function as:

awSetFormatMode("v", "?")

Invoking BrokerFormat. awEventFormatAssemble will produce this output:

column1 = ?, column2 = ?

If you call this function as:

awSetFormatMode("v", ":")

Invoking awEventFormatAssemble will produce this output:

column1 = :v0, column2 = :v1
