Sending a message to all users.

Sometimes one user could need to send a message to all the connected users. Perhaps you have to give some announcement to the users, for example for an unplanned reboot of the system, thing that you must avoid as much as you can (see post about best practices). The biWall function covers this functionality.

From the expression test window you can try this code

{
var lMessage$:=’Hi all users’;

return biWall&(lMessage$);
}
I hope this will be useful for all of you.
