Please add a DAYOFWEEK function to the UFL interface

Can you please add a DAYOFWEEK function to the available functions in the UFL interface. This will greatly assist with the handling of daylight savings transitions (e.g. first sunday in April) as there is currently no easy way of determining the ...

UFL Designer should include a test mode to verify INI behavior with a data file.

PI UFL ._OK file rename should be after parsing to avoid data loss during shutdowns

My understanding of UFL (confirmed by tech support) is that it will rename files to ._OK extension before loading lines into memory. This means that if the service is stopped (such as during an update) and it has not completely read into memory an...

Bring back PIAttributeMaskToTag

Please, bring back the PIAttributeMaskToTag function. It disappeared after PI Datalink 2019SP1 Patch 1. Emulating it with a VBA function calling on an AF SDK COM wrapper is a lot of work and, most importantly, much slower that a native DataLink im...
