Jack, There is a limitation, but I am not sure what the value is at the moment.
As a suggestion I would think about ARSPerl or the ARS Java API as a better approach for how this can be done. Still call the script via a $PROCESS$ call, but have the script do an ARS submit and return the Entry ID for the row that contains the "response" from the script. Then do a set field action to get the result from the "Result" form into the current transaction. -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap.... Pick two. Never ascribe to malice, that which can be explained by incompetence. On 7/14/06, Jack Samson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
All, I had a question on how $PROCESS$ works on a Solaris OS. I have a perl script that I call using a $PROCESS$ that performs a bunch of parsing for the contents of a field. Is their a limitation on how much can be passed and returned to a $PROCESS$? I noticed if I have an Active Link with a character field that contains 12,000 characters that runs the same perl command using the following: $PROCESS$ @@: /usr/bin/perl/parse.pl $field$ It returns the correct 11,900 lines of characters. (As Expected) If I run the same command in a filter: $PROCESS$ /usr/bin/perl/parse.pl $field$, then it only returns about half of the text. If their is a limitation, can someone recommend a workaround with how I can return the parsed field into Remedy?
