Details
The COMAMID function returns a string that contains
all of the communications access methods that are valid for the operating
environment that the SCL code executes under. Each value is separated by a
blank. This function is useful for providing a list of communications access
methods for users. The list is displayed as determined by the developer. The
function merely returns a string of values.
The following program fragment gets the string of communications
access methods that are valid for the operating environment that this SCL
program executes under. After the string is returned, one way to display the
values would be in a list box. Although this example does not include it,
you would specify that the list box be filled with the text string cval.
comlist=makelist();
str=comamid();
do i=1 to 10;
com=scan(str,i,' ');
if com^=' ' then
comlist=insertc(comlist,com,i);
end;
