FN_WRFSNAME()
WriteFileServerNameTable
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
fn_wrFSName( <aNameTable> ) -> NIL
Arguments
<aNameTable> is an 8 element array of file server names,
corresponding to entries in the Connection ID table.
File server names may be up to 47 characters in length.
Returns
Nothing
Description
Use this function when making changes to the Connection ID table. For
example, the function fn_attchFS() writes the name of the target file
server, as well as connection ID info, before attempting to attach to
a new file server.
Examples
/* change a file server's local name to something more meaningful */
aFSNames := fn_FSName()
IF ( nID := ASCAN( aTable, {|e| e == "FS3" } ) != 0 )
aTable[ nID ] := "Server Next to Sally's Desk"
fn_wrFSName( aTable )
ENDIF
/* NOTE: Although the above example serves to demonstrate how to
use fn_wrFSName(), the practice illustrated above is not recom-
mended. fn_wrFSName() only writes to the Shell's file server
name table, not to the network. In the example above, the file
server "Server Next to Sally's Desk" would still have to be
referenced as "FS3" by any other file server functions, such as
attaching or logging in. */
