Naming of the xstats files [looking for better/easier identification]

Hi,

My xstats files are named like this:
xstats-05-05-2014---12-21-55_635348893360854810.tmp

So they are generated with a date / time and a stamp - but since I have a lot of these xstats file it would be very usefull to have a better identification of the files in the file name.

Would it fx. be possible to include the name of the program in the name of the file as well - or would there be any other tricks to name the file with a better identification?

Think seperate databases for each part, then the date stamp is useful.

Yes, the date / time stamp is the only useful thing in the current state - but it really would be much easier to find the relevant xstats files it they were named in a more unique way.

But I guess that is not possible then?

To be clear, are you wanting to name transactions each program run? Are you wanting to name the "part" (not an individual transaction) within a database?

Somehow I'm thinking you may be more interested in trace fields / queries, have you learned of them?

anything is possible - the real question is does it add value to offset the time wasted trying to figure it out.

Well, I already have a database where the measurements are recorded and also including the name of the part aka SPC (Lighthouse).

The issue occours when data is not recorded properly and I need to investigate the cause - so I need to find the xstats file to check the content.
By now I need to open several measurements or double check date / time to find the relevant xstat files!

It would be quite nifty if I could differentiate the files by part in the name of the file.

You are right - I would not invent something, but if a feature like this was already available I would have used it!
