Hi all,

 

Is there a way to accomplish passing an argument from a basic program to
a
paragraph?

 

Something like what procwrite does with a Proc?

 

Thanks

Roy if possible I would reengineer using UniBasic as the driver program
calling other programs and paragraphs.

Subject: RE: [U2] Paragraphs and procwrite

To explain a little better ...

The paragraph calls many other procs and paragraphs as well as a number of
basic programs.  What I found is that if someone exits a basic program,
control is returned to the calling paragraph.
  
Since the paragraph is in use I cannot modify it and accomplish anything
that way.

Obviously reading something from the command line won't work in this
circumstance.

With a PQ type proc I could set a flag like INVALID and procwrite it back to
the calling paragraph for testing to see if the proc should continue.

I believe the idea of using @user0 may work but I haven't had a chance to
test it.

I was also hoping to avoid writing something to a file since there are many
instances of this and clearing the flags could be a problem.

Thanks again,

Roy

2009-05-25 Thread phil walker

Okay, you can use @system_return_code or @userx to do this. They can
both be checked in the Paragraph after returning from the BASIC program
to see what happened.

If you want to know how let me know.

You can have the basic program generate the paragraph dynamically, and save it 
in the Voc under a temporary name.  You can even have that paragraph delete 
itself when it is done.

Re: [U2] Paragraphs and procwrite

2009-05-22 Thread Louie Bergsagel

And of course, the paragraph mentioned in #2 would read the argument using
the <> command, where the number in the <> prompt represents, in
this example, the second word on the command line.

e.g. IF <> # "" THEN SELECT INVENTORY WITH PART.NO = <>

Re: [U2] Paragraphs and procwrite

2009-05-22 Thread Louie Bergsagel

Many:
1. Have the program create and/or update the paragraph record in the VOC
file with a read, insert, and write.
2. Have the program run the paragraph with the appropriate argument, e.g.
   ARGUMENT = USER.INPUT.PART.NO 
   COMMAND = "PARAGRAPH.NAME  ":ARGUMENT
   EXECUTE COMMAND
3. If the paragraph needs a select statement, you can have a program
build an appropriate SAVE.LIST, execute the GET.LIST command inside the
program, and let the paragraph process the records.
4. The paragraph can also read a variable from a VOC file with the <>
prompt. I believe HELP << will give you the details.
