Develop a NetLogic for inserting random values

This NetLogic script inserts random values into the
Table1
 table of the database.
Prerequisites
Set the default external code editor. See Set the default code editor.
  1. To develop the NetLogic
  2. In
    Project view
    , expand the
    DataStores
     folder.
  3. Right-click a database and select
    New
    Runtime NetLogic
    .
  4. Hover-over the NetLogic, select
    Edit
    , and enter
    EmbeddedDatabase1NetLogic
  5. Double-click the NetLogic.
    The external code editor opens.
  6. In the code editor, replace the existing code with the following code:
    #region Using directives
using System;
using FTOptix.HMIProject;
using FTOptix.NetLogic;
using FTOptix.Store;

#endregion

public class EmbeddedDatabase1NetLogic : BaseNetLogic
{
    public override void Start()
    {
        // Insert code to be executed when the user-defined logic is started
    }

    public override void Stop()
    {
        // Insert code to be executed when the user-defined logic is stopped
    }

    [ExportMethod]
public void InsertRandomValues (){

    // Get the current project folder.
    var project = Project.Current;

    // Save the names of the columns of the table to an array
    string[] columns = { "Column1", "Column2", "Column3" };

    // Create and populate a matrix with values to insert into the odbc table
    var rawValues = new object[1000, 3];

    Random randomNumber = new Random ();

    for (UInt16 i = 0; i < 1000; ++i)
    {
        // Column1
        rawValues[i, 0] = i;

        // Column2
        rawValues[i, 1] = randomNumber.Next(0, 5000);

        // Column3
        rawValues[i, 2] = randomNumber.NextDouble() * 5000;
    }
    var myStore = LogicObject.Owner as Store;

    // Get Table1 from myStore
    var table1 = myStore.Tables.Get<Table>("Table1");

    // Insert values into table1
    table1.Insert(columns, rawValues);
}
}
  7. Save the code.
