FWIW: This is exactly the function of the original link I gave below except much better for programmers new to MUMPS or unfamiliar (or uncomfortable) with the coding style of the specific application. As Gregory noted, it lists the RPC's with hypertext links to view the source code of the routine called from each RPC. If you have never followed these links, it may be worth pointing out that the MUMPS source code view here is rendered with HTML and each routine is itself hypertext linked to other routines that it calls and color coded to make it easier to identify different features of the MUMPS code, such as quoted strings and comments. Additionally, the names of the intrinsic functions and commands are all (optionally) spelled out to make it easier to read for those who have not yet memorized them all. >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jim Self >Sent: Monday, May 01, 2006 9:23 PM >To: hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net >Subject: Re: [Hardhats-members] RPC Call Documentation > >Thanks, >Here is another variation that returns the RPC's in a javascript object >format: > >http://vista.vmth.ucdavis.edu/query.js?dbfile=8994&index=Name&format=TEST4&limit=20 > >and another variation that produces xml: > >http://vista.vmth.ucdavis.edu/query.xml?dbfile=8994&index=Name&format=TEST4&limit=20 > > > >Gregory wrote: >>--- Jim Self <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >>> This might help also, >>> >>> >> http://vista.vmth.ucdavis.edu/query?dbfile=REMOTE+PROCEDURE&format=TEST2&index=Name >>> >>> It is a live query into the Remote Procedure file on a test database. >>> >> >> >>Very nice!
