FILENAME_MATCH_ Procedure
•
FILENAME_MATCH_ does not use the process or system context (as defaulting
would require), so it can be used in environments where the PFS (process file
segment) is not available.
Examples
result := FILENAME_MATCH_ ( filename:flen, pattern:plen );
The following table shows some possible combinations of input parameters and the
corresponding values of
status for the foregoing call to FILENAME_MATCH_:
