Is there away I can interface with C language to pass and recieve error code and parameters using progress?


Thanks,

You could try using

INPUT-OUTPUT THROUGH OS-SILENT.....

This will rely on STDOUT etc. You will only be able to invoke a routine with input parameters and read STDOUT.

Otherwise I think you will have to build the C library into Progress. See the External Programming Interfaces guide for more details...

Enjoy!

OK now that im working on this Im trying to to get a parameter from a c program.

def var returnCode as char.
def stream io.
xmltext = "paremeter im passing".
input-output stream io through
/opt/hd/ca/trend/eaiapps/bin/MQPutMessage
value(xmltext) unbuffered .


put stream io returnCode.
pause.
set stream io returnCode.
pause.
disp stream io returnCode.
