[Openroad-users] Included applications at runtime

[White, Paul]

Do you mean something like this?
 
 
Customer_App
procedure dummyproc () =
{
    RETURN 123;
}
 
 
MyApp
procedure p4_application_exists
(
appname = varchar(32) not null default ''
) =
declare
    li_exists = integer not null default 0;
    lv_exec = varchar(50) not null default '';
enddeclare
{
 
    li_exists = 0;
    lv_exec = appname + '!dummyproc';
    li_exists = CALLPROC :lv_exec;
 
    MESSAGE 'p4_application_exists:' + varchar(li_exists);
    RETURN li_exists;
}

Peter,

 

Why not always provide a dummy application/procedure when you deliver your
application.  Then you always know that the procedure exists - even if you
dummy procedure just does a return.

 

Then your user can simply replace you dummy image to implement theirs.  The
additional benefit of this is in application supporting.  If there is any
doubt about whether a problem exists in your code or the clients you can
simply ask them to reproduce the problem with your dummy application in
place.

Hi peter,

 

I have looked for that too. Without any luck.

The only way that I could come up with, was to search the directories:
Current dir, II_W4GLAPPS_DIR, II_W4GLSYS_DIR, II_SYSTEM/ingres/w4glapps

Folks,

 

How do I get the list of included applications at runtime for a given
application?  I want to check if a certain app exist - our customers can
customize our product as they see fit and at runtime I want to see if an app
exist - if it does I want to call a predefined procedure.

 

I have tried to see if ParentApplication has an attribute but I cannot find
any thing - I tried .inclApps (you never know) but that did not return
anything.  Source code database is not available in runtime environment. And
I prefer not to write output to disk and then read / parse it (may run into
all sorts of rights issues...).

 

Any help greatly appreciated.

 

Peter
