PROGRAM Commands

RUN PROGRAM Command
The file-name parameter must be represented in network form. It must begin
with a $ (dollar sign) followed by one to six alphanumeric characters, and the first
character must be alphabetic. The file-name cannot exceed a total of seven
characters including the $ symbol.
Specifying a terminal name as the file allows you to run PATHCOM on one
terminal and the SCREEN COBOL program on another terminal. However, unless
NOWAIT is specified, you cannot use the terminal running PATHCOM, because
this terminal has to wait for the SCREEN COBOL program to finish running on the
other terminal.
file-name is required if NOWAIT is specified and must be a name that is
different from the file name of the PATHCOM terminal.
For example, if the following command is issued from $TERMA:
=RUN PROGRAM SALES, FILE $TERMB
the PATHCOM process running on $TERMA must wait for the program SALES to
finish running on $TERMB.
TYPE program-type
specifies the type of device on which the screen program runs. The possible
values are:
A PROGRAM object definition can have more than one TYPE parameter value
associated with it. For instance, in the following example a value is specified for an
IBM 3270 terminal, a 6530 terminal, and an intelligent device:
SET PROGRAM TCP TCP1
SET PROGRAM TYPE IBM-3270 (INITIAL SC01-IBM)
SET PROGRAM TYPE T16-6530 (INITIAL SC01-T16)
SET PROGRAM TYPE INTELLIGENT (INITIAL SC01-INT)
ADD PROGRAM PROG1
If you do not specify a TYPE parameter value, the PATHMON process issues a
file-system DEVICEINFO query to the device the temporary TERM will run on. The
reply from the DEVICEINFO query is used to determine the appropriate device
type. If the device type derived from the DEVICEINFO reply is not defined in the
PROGRAM object definition, the RUN PROGRAM command fails with an error
1086.
