Good Morning R:azzak, That is excellent; I did not know you could do that. Is this feature a recent addition?

Razzak Memon Sent: Thursday, June 3, 2021 8:07 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [RBASE-L] - Compiled Application Question Good Morning Paul, The ability to pass parameters to any R:BASE instance, Runtime, and compiled application is possible using the "STARTUPPARAMSTRnnn" and "StartupParamCount" parameters of the GETPROPERTY command. STARTUPPARAMSTRnnn - Returns the startup parameter value by the number specified, where "NNNN" in StartupParamStrNNNN is the a number from 0 to STARTUPPARAMCOUNT. Notes: . This parameter is used with STARTUPPARAMCOUNT . if NNNN = 0 (GETPROPERTY APPLICATION StartupParamStr0 VarName), then VarName will always contain the executable name with path . if NNNN > STARTUPPARAMCOUNT then VarName will contain the text: "-ERROR-" Example to Display Parameters: Desktop Shortcut Target contains: C:\RBTI\CompApp_ABC.EXE "-v" "-boss" CLS CLEAR VAR vCount, vParamStr0, vParamStr1, vParamStr2 GETPROPERTY Application StartupParamCount vCount GETPROPERTY Application StartupParamStr0 vParamStr0 GETPROPERTY Application StartupParamStr1 vParamStr1 GETPROPERTY Application StartupParamStr2 vParamStr2 SET VAR vMessage = ('EXE NAME : ' + .vParamStr0 + (CHAR(13)) ++ 'PARAM 1 : ' + .vParamStr1 + (CHAR(13)) ++ 'PARAM 2 : ' + .vParamStr2 + (CHAR(13))) PAUSE 2 USING .vMessage SHOW VAR RETURN StartupParamCount - Returns the startup parameter count for the executable. Notes: . This parameter is used with STARTUPPARAMSTRnnn Example: GETPROPERTY Application StartupParamCount vParamCount The above examples and many other parameters are available within the "Application" Category of R:Docs X.5!
