## cf-global-tokens.txt
// 1) Created global token (in global token manager) called "ProcessorPort" with default value 8020 and checked persist.
// 2) Created system called "Localhost" to 127.0.0.1
// 3) Created setup page with text input field with serial join 9999 with command "setPort" in "Send Value Actions > command"
// 4) Created command in "Localhost" system called "setPort" with following Javascript:
CF.setToken(CF.GlobalTokensJoin, "[ProcessorPort]", "[@s9999]");
// 5) Made button on setup page called "What is my port" with code:
CF.getJoin(CF.GlobalTokensJoin, function(j, v, tokens) { var guiPort = tokens["[ProcessorPort]"]; CF.setJoins([{join: "s590", value: guiPort}]); });
// This grabs the global token "[ProcessorPort]" and displays it in serial join s590 for testing. All works like a champ until I restart guiDesigner. I'd assume that from a fresh start and navigating to the setup page and pressing the "What is my port" button that the set persistent global token value would be displayed. Also, even from a fresh start pressing the "What is my port" button does not display the peristent global token "[ProcessorPort]" value, I'd think it would at least display 8020 since that was set as the default.

// Also just tested an init.js fle in the script manager with the intention to prepopulate the port input field with the port defined in the global persistent tokens. This seems to have no effect:

// Initialize GUI

CF.userMain = function() {
    // iViewer initialization is now complete and the CF environment is fully available

    // Read the global context that we need
    restoreContext();

};

function restoreContext() {
    // Read the contents of the ProcessorPort token
    CF.GetJoin(CF.GlobalTokensJoin, function(join, value, tokens) {
        var contextStr = tokens["ProcessorPort"];
        if (contextStr != null && contextStr.length > 0) {
		CF.setJoins([{join: "s9999", value: contextStr}]);
        }
    });
}
