V14SP1:How to recieve parameters from other applications

Post by Rieko Saitoh »

Hi,

We would like to call LANSA function from other application and LANSA function receives parameter. In this case, do you know a good way to receive parameter?
I thought about writing a parameter as a CSV file in othere application, and reading a CSV file in LANSA function by using BIF(TRANSFORM_FILE).
But is there any other good way? If you have such experiences, could you let us know?

Thank you.

Best regards,

What programming language will the other application use to call the LANSA function?

What operating system will it be using (eg: Windows or IBM i)?

Hi Mark,

This could be done by writing the parameters in a CSV file.
