HP ALLBASE/4GL Developer Administration Manual

Start-up Command File 

HP ALLBASE/4GL is supplied with a command file HP4GL (or HP4GLR for the
run-time environment) to start HP ALLBASE/4GL from the MPE/iX command
interpreter.

This command file allows you to specify a number of options on the
command line.  These options include the commands for log-on bypass, or
customized log on.  You can also specify values for the MPE/iX variables
used by HP ALLBASE/4GL by entering the values on the command line.  Refer
to Chapter 2  for details of the log-on bypass facility and the
customized log-on screen facility.

The command line to start HP ALLBASE/4GL is:

     :HP4GL ["options"] [variable=value] ...

The variable term on this command line allows you to set values for the
following MPE/iX variables or job control words used by HP ALLBASE/4GL.

   *   HP4APPNPATH

   *   HP4DATAPATH

   *   HP4DBMPATH

   *   HP4FSPATH

   *   HP4SPATH

   *   HP4SQLPATH

   *   HP4TERM

   *   HP4TIPATH

   *   NLUSERLANG (job control word)

   *   NLDATALANG (job control word)

If any of these variables or job control words are set when you start HP
ALLBASE/4GL, the command file uses the current value for the variable or
JCW.

Values specified on the command line only apply for the current HP
ALLBASE/4GL session.  The existing values (if any) for these variables
and job control words are restored when you exit from HP ALLBASE/4GL.

If required, you can use a logon UDC to set values for these variables
and job control words.

If the variables and job control words are undefined when you start HP
ALLBASE/4GL, the command file assumes the following default values.

Variable              Default Value         Default Value 
                      (Developer)           (Run-Time)

for the standard HP ALLBASE/4GL installation.
