- NAME
- SRunSX
-
- SYNOPSIS
- SRunSX - SRun Script Execute - Requires v37
-
- INPUTS
- "COMMAND/F"
-
- FUNCTION
- This is a program very Similar to SRun;
- in fact it is just an extension to SRun.
- Additionally to the functionality SRun shows,
- SRunSX examines its first argument, and if this
- is a quoted scriptfile, it explicitely calls
- "Execute".
- This is a workaround for a bug in Kickstart 2.0-3.1
- Boot Shell, which addes a space to the filename, if
- a Script is enclosed in brackets an not called via
- Execute.
-
- RESULT
- STDOUT: the output of the 'command' execution.
- RC: returnvalue of SystemTags() or >=10
-
- NOTES
- CLI - only
-
- should compile with SAS-C
-
-
- SRunSX does currently not call ReadArgs, this is due
- to a bug(?) in readargs that removes some whitespace
- and quotes from argstring even with /F option
- (see bugs for consequences)
-
- BUGS
- "SRunSX COMMAND commandstring" fails; U _MUST_ use
- "SRunSX commandstring"
-
- EXAMPLES
- > echo > t:xxx "echo hallo"
- > protect t:xxx +s
- > t:xxx
- hallo
- > "t:xxx" ; beware of the quotes!
- EXECUTE: Can't open t:xxx
- object not found
- > echo >"t:xxx " "echo error - this is the wrong script"
- > "t:xxx" ; beware of the quotes!
- error - this is the wrong script
- > SRunSX "t:xxx"
- hallo
- > SRunSX echo hallo
- hallo
