Fri, 07/18/2008 - 8:32am — Lepa

A function to call UNIX and/or shell script from PeopleCode.

/*call unix script from PeopleCode*/
Function CallScript;

   /*According to PeopleBooks, PS_HOME is always prefixed to the file location*/
   &exitCode = Exec("/path/to/script/scriptname ", True);

End-Function;

The Exec command has changed in PT8.4x so the above function will be:

Function CallScript;
 
   /*Use %Exec_Asynchronous if it is not important to wait for a response from the called script*/
