### MODULE SUMMARY

The Inviso Autostart Utility Library

### DESCRIPTION

The purpose of the Inviso autostart utility library is to facilitate the creation and modification of autostart configuration files used by the standard autostart.

### EXPORTS

`setup_autostart(Node, R, Opts, TracerData, CmdFiles, Bindings, Transl, RTtag) -> ok | {error, Reason}`

Types:

`Node = atom()`
`R = int()`
`Opts -- see inviso:add_nodes/2,3`
`TracerData -- see inviso:init_tracing/1,2`
`CmdFiles = [CmdFile]`
`CmdFile = string()`
`Bindings = [{Var,Val}]`
`Var = atom()`
`Val = term()`
`Transl = [{{M1,F1,Arity}, {M2,F2,{Mt,Ft}}}]`
`M1 = F1 = M2 = F2 = Mt = Ft = atom()`
`Arity = int()`
`RTtag = term()`
`Reason = term()`

Creates an autostart configuration file on `Node`. The name of the file is automatically deducted from consulting the Runtime_Tools configuration parameters at `Node`.

`R` is the number of allowed autostarts remaining.

`Opts` is the options which shall be given to the runtime component. See inviso:add_nodes/2,3.

`TracerData` is used when initiating tracing on this node. See inviso:init_tracing/1,2.

`CmdFiles` points out files containing instructions understood by the `inviso_autostart_server` implementation of an autostart initiator.

`Bindings` is a list of `{Var, Val}` tuples, where `Var` is the name of a variable and `Val` the actual value of the variable.

`Transl` means that `M1:F1/Arity` shall be translated into `M2:F2`.

`RTtag` is the incarnation tag of the runtime component. See See inviso:add_nodes/2,3.

`set_repeat(Node, R) -> ok | {error, Reason}`

Types:

`Node = atom()`
`R = int()`
`Reason = term()`

Sets the repeat parameter in the autostart file at `Node` without changing any of its other contents. The autostart configuration file must exist.

`R` is the number of allowed autostarts remaining.

`inhibit_autostart(Node) -> ok | {error, Reason}`

Types:

`Node = atom()`
`Reason = term()`

Sets the repeat parameter in the autostart file at `Node` to 0. Equivalent to `set_repeat(Node, 0)`.
