Path Conventions In The Shared Dictionary

<< Back to the SharedPhidgets page


There is a path hierarchy of the entries in the shared dictionary at the SharedPhidgets server. The root path of all SharedPhidgets path entries is /sharedphidgets/, followed by the device identifier and the serial number. Thereafter, alle the status, control and metadata keys are added.

You can use the SharedPhidgets Controller tool to see all available entries in the SharedPhidgets dictionary. Here, you can also change values, delete entries and filter displayed entries by specified attributes.

Note: If you add your custom key-value-pairs to the dictionary, please use another root path then /sharedphidgets/! For example you can use the path /yourapplicationname/.

Here are some examples of the path entries in the dictionary:
