In a cold link conversation, data is sent from the server to the client only when the client requests it, rather than whenever the data is changed. This is useful only when the client doesn't need to be aware of the changed data immediately. However, it is processor intensive than the hot link because, the client must request data from the server every time it needs. The following PowerBuilder functions are related to the cold link:
ExecRemote(command, appl_name, topic)
GetRemote(location, target, appl_name, topic)
SetRemote(location, value, appl_name, topic)
