442.0. "MIR Alternate Identifiers - Any Users??" by TOOK::SWIST (Jim Swist LKG2-2/T2 DTN 226-7102) Mon Oct 29 1990 16:28

    I can find no code in any of the MCC sources I have access to that
    call the MIR alternate identifier routines.   
    
    (mcc_mir_translate_ident, mcc_mir_add_identifier,
    mcc_mir_remove_identifier, mcc_mir_rename_identifier).
    
    Maintaining secondary identifiers in the MIR is an expensive operation
    in terms of both access time as well as support code so if these
    routines are not needed we should think about phasing them out. 
    Perhaps you could let me know if:
    
    1) I haven't looked in all the right places...
    
    2) There will be code in place that's planning to use this stuff but
    it's not here yet...
    
    3) The routines would be used but they have a deficiency which is
    xxxxx...

442.1Historian FM uses MIR alternate IDsTOOK::SHMUYLOVICHMon Oct 29 1990 21:375
	Historian FM uses mcc_mir_add_identifier routine when it creates
	an entity being recorded in the Historical Instance Repository(HIR).
	It gives Past Time IM an ability to find in HIR an entity specified 
	by any supported identifier.

    Gee, so much for my ability to search through source code.
    
    I'll make sure the Ultrix MIR supports these.
