Resource Management Programmer's Guide (32650-90024) is
written for an experienced programmer who has a working
knowledge of MPE/iX and is familiar with:
At least one programming language
Compiling, linking, and executing a program on MPE/iX
This Manual contains detailed instructions describing how you can
use system intrinsics within your application to accomplish two
resource management tasks available through MPE/iX:
Managing Shared Resources with Resource Identification Numbers (RINs)
Dynamically loading procedures located in executable libraries (XLs)
This manual is part of the MPE/iX Programmer's Series.
This series consists of the
MPE/iX Intrinsics Reference Manual (32650-90028) and a set of
task-oriented programmer's guides. Refer to the MPE/iX Programmer's Series
Documentation Map for a description of how this manual relates to
the rest of the series.
This manual contains the following chapters:
- Chapter 1
Introduction provides you with an overview of the contents of this manual.
- Chapter 2
Managing Shared Resources with RINs describes how you can use Resource Identification Numbers (RINs) to manage a specific resource shared by a set of jobs or sessions, so that no two jobs or sessions can use the resource at the same time.
- Chapter 3
Dynamic Loading of Library Procedures describes how you can dynamically bind and load a procedure located in an executable library (XL).
- Appendix A
Global RIN Program Example is an HP Pascal/XL program illustrating how you can use RIN management intrinsics to guarantee exclusive access to a selected record in a shared file.
- Appendix B
Dynamic Loading Program Example is an HP Pascal/XL program illustrating
how you use the HPGETPROCPLABEL intrinsic to dynamically load a procedure located in an executable library.
