Shared variable read only?

[tom_z]

Hi,

    Is it possible to make a network published shared variable read only on other machines not hosted the variables?

Hi Tom,

When you go about making/editing the shared variable on the other machines, if you select the "enable aliasing" checkbox you'll be able to bind it to your hosted variables and specify the access mode to be "read only."  Is this the kind of thing you're looking for?  Are you looking to implement a sort of security protection on your shared variables?

Hi  Kyle,

     I have shared variables on RT and don't want programs running on host to modify it. I have found I can use the single writer property to achieve it. Thanks for help!
