LOGOFF Command
•
If the ancestor of your current TACL process is a process running in another
system and you enter the LOGOFF command, the current TACL process is
deleted and control returns to the ancestor process. This message is displayed:
Exiting from TACL on \node-name
•
If you are accessing a remote node through a modem on your local node, TACL
does not issue a modem disconnect.
•
After you log off, the current TACL process accessor ID and creator accessor ID
are set to NULL.NULL (0,0). This is also the setting of the accessor IDs when an
interactive TACL is started but no user has logged on.
•
After you log off, any process that tries to use your variables receives file-system
error 66 on its I/O requests.
•
If your TACL is interactive, and your terminal is a 6520 or 6530, and TACL is
configured to clear the terminal screen as a security measure (the default), it does
so when you log off. You can override the automatic screen clearing with the
NOCLEAR option. Conversely, if TACL is configured to omit automatic screen
clearing, you can use the CLEAR option to clear the terminal screen.
Note. The LOGOFF command is an alias for the #LOGOFF built-in function. You can, if
you want, redefine LOGOFF as the name of a routine or macro of your own creation that
checks for variables in use by processes, requesters, and servers. You can then close
associated files and processes before logging off to avoid error-66 conditions.
