get_system — Get current value of HALCON system parameters.
get_system( : : Query : Information)
The operator get_system returns information concerning the
currently activated HALCON system parameters.
Readable and Writable Parameters
get_system returns information about all parameters that are set
with set_system.
For more information on read- and writable parameters, please refer to the
reference documentation of set_system.
Read-Only Parameters
The following system parameters can be queried:
Versions:
The currently used variant of HALCON: HALCON XL, which allows images larger than 32768 x 32768 ('true') or HALCON, which restricts the maximal image size to 32768 x 32768 ('false').
HALCON version number.
The edition of the HALCON version in use. The returned value is one out of 'progress', 'steady' or ValRef{'student'}.
The HALCON product edition. Will be one of 'Progress', 'Steady', 'Steady Deep Learning', or 'Student Edition'.
Creation date of the HALCON library.
Revision number of the HALCON library.
File version number of the HALCON library. The number is made up of the HALCON version number, the revision number, and the build number.
Upper Limits:
Maximum number of input parameters.
Maximum number of output parameters.
Maximum number of input control parameters.
Maximum number of output control parameters.
Maximum number of windows.
Graphic:
Returns the value that may have been set with set_window_attr('window_title',...).
If nothing has been set yet, the string 'default' is returned.
Parallelization:
Returns the number of processors that HALCON has found on the hardware it is running on.
Returns the number of threads the last operator was using for automatic operator parallelization. Only operators that were run by the calling thread and support automatic parallelization are considered. Note that using this parameter in HDevelop works only in run mode, not in single step mode.
Returns all split levels the last operator was using for automatic parallelization. Only operators that were run by the calling thread and support automatic parallelization are considered. If the last operator was not parallelized, the string 'false' is returned. Note that using this parameter in HDevelop works only in run mode, not in single step mode.
Licensing:
The list of license files HALCON can find.
A tuple containing information about the current license. If the license is invalid, the tuple contains a single element with the value 'invalid'. Otherwise, the tuple contains the following elements in order:
The name of the license file used to obtain the current license.
The type of license, either 'runtime', 'development', or 'sasl'.
The highest version of HALCON licensed by the current license.
The expiration date of the current license in ISO 8601 format, or 'permanent' for licenses without an expiration date.
The list of HALCON modules licensed by the current license as a single string, separated by ' | '.
The number of concurrent licenses, or 0 for unlimited concurrent use.
The number of concurrent sessions, or 0 for unlimited concurrent sessions.
The host ID used to obtain the current license.
The flags of the current license.
The contents of the license info field.
If a particular piece of information is not available, an empty string is returned instead.
The date the HALCON license will expire, in ISO 8601 format, or 'permanent' if the license does not expire.
The number of failed license rechecks since process start.
This parameter triggers an immediate license check and returns 'true' if a valid license could be found, or 'false' otherwise.
The host ID used to obtain the current license.
A list of all modules licensed by the currently used license.
The highest HALCON version the current license is valid for.
A list of operators that require a module that is not licensed and thus cannot be used.
Other:
The list of parameters get_system understands.
The host IDs of the computer that can be used for licensing HALCON.
Total number of the available HALCON procedures ('num_sys_proc' + 'num_user_proc').
Number of the system procedures (supported procedures).
Number of the user defined procedures (see also “Extension
Package Programmer's Manual”).
Byte order of the processor ('msb_first' or 'lsb_first').
Name of the operating system of the computer on which the HALCON process is being executed. Note that for all Windows versions, 'Windows NT' is returned. Use the parameter 'operating_system_version' to query the precise version.
Version number of the operating system of the computer on which the HALCON process is being executed. To decode the Windows version numbers, please refer to the website information on operating systems and version numbers provided by Microsoft.
Name of the computer on which the HALCON process is being executed. On Windows systems, if the computer is part of a cluster the name of the cluster is returned, not the name of the local computer. If the name cannot be determined, an empty string is returned.
Locale setting that is used by the runtime environment for encoding system strings (according to the locale category LC_CTYPE). The result corresponds to the result of the system C function setlocale or the result of the shell command 'locale' called in a Linux terminal. In general, it contains data about the language, the country, and the code page or code set - under Windows, for instance, 'German_Germany.1252' or under Linux 'en_US.utf8'. Note, that the names on Linux and Mac are not clearly defined because they depend on the system and the current configuration. Thus, the code set can be set to 'utf8' or 'UTF-8', or may completely be missing. On systems that do not support locale an empty string is returned.
Code set that is used by the runtime environment for encoding system strings (according to the locale category LC_CTYPE). In contrast to 'locale_raw', this result contains only the code set or code page and no information about language and country. The code set is returned in a normalized way so that it can easier be used in tests. The result contains only lowercase letters and numbers, with different results for Windows code pages and Linux / Mac code sets, as the code sets used are usually not identical. Under Windows typically the code page number prefixed by 'cp' is returned, e.g., 'cp1252' (for code page 1252 which is commonly used in the western world and correlates widely with Latin-1) or 'cp932' (which correlates with ShiftJIS, which is common in Japan). Common results under Linux and Mac are 'utf8' (which is the default locale on Mac and most of the recent Linux distributions), 'iso885915' (Latin-9), 'shiftjis', and 'ascii' (referred to as ANSI_X3.4-1968, US-ASCII, POSIX, C).

Windows Remote Desktop or X11 forwarding.
The maximum amount of temporary memory required so far for a thread, in bytes. The first element of the tuple contains the value for the current thread, while any following elements contain the values of currently idle threads from the thread pool.
The maximum is reset when the temporary memory cache mode is set to 'idle'.
Returns a tuple containing the block sizes of all temporary memory blocks currently cached in the thread's temporary memory cache, in bytes.
Returns a tuple containing the block sizes of all temporary memory blocks currently cached in the global temporary memory reservoir, in bytes.
