Using SCL with Other SAS Software Products |
SCL programs can use the SYSTEM function to issue commands to host operating systems. For example, an SCL program may need to issue commands to the operating system in order to perform system-specific data management or control tasks or to invoke external applications.
An SCL program can issue any command that is valid for the operating system under which an application runs. SCL places no restrictions on commands that are issued to an operating system, nor does SCL check command strings for validity before passing them to the operating system.
