The preceding screen shows that the MSGPROC NCL procedure does the following:
Deletes the “Hello message” message—it begins with “Hello” but does not end
with your user ID.
Modifies the attributes of the “Hello message NNMUSER” message—it begins
with “Hello” and ends with your user ID—and forwards it on to the OCS window.
Note Your user ID may be different from the user ID, NNMUSER, shown in this example.
Leaves the “Message” message unchanged—it does not begin with “Hello”—and
forwards it on to the OCS window.
Note After you have examined the results of the MSGPROC NCL procedure, you can terminate execution of
both the MSGPROC and MESSGEN NCL procedures by exiting from OCS.
What to Do Next This concludes the NCL tutorial. To continue to use this manual in the most effective
way possible, you should now read Sections 4 through 8. These sections discuss more
of the details you need to understand before you begin to develop more complex NCL
procedures. The sections discuss initial procedure development, the core statements
used to organize the structure of NCL procedures and user-written functions, and the
many techniques you can use to execute NCL procedures.
If you want to know more about all topics covered in individual sections of this
manual, you should read “About This Manual” again before you continue.
