Summary
NOTE: This procedure is supported for compatibility with previous software and should not be
used for new development.
The CREATEREMOTENAME procedure supplies a process name that is unique for the specified
system in a network. (This process name goes into the name parameter, not the file-name
parameter, of the NEWPROCESS[NOWAIT] procedure.)
Syntax for C Programmers
This procedure does not have a C syntax, because it is superseded and should not be used for
new development. This procedure is supported only for compatibility with previous software.
Syntax for TAL Programmers
CALL CREATEREMOTENAME ( name ! o
,sysnum ); ! i
Parameters
name
output
INT:ref:3
is an array where CREATEREMOTENAME returns a system-generated process name (in local
form) that is unique for the designated system. The name parameter is of the form:
$zaaaa
where
z is the letter Z, Y, or X.
a represents an alphanumeric character except "o" and "i."
CREATEREMOTENAME ensures that the character position after the last a is a blank.
sysnum
input
INT:value
is a value that specifies the system number for which the process name is to be created.
