Using proenv-commands within the ABL

Posted by Kai Siegele on 13-Oct-2017 03:49

Hallo,

I have created a procedure library using proenv and the prolib-commands for it.

Now I want to write a small ABL application with a form that just show the content of a library in a grid. When writing such an application I need to invoke the proenv command prolib withing the ABL and retrieving the result of the r would help a lot.

Has anybody an idea?

Kind regards

if you just want to explore the library etc. from windows there is this utility (that I have never used!)

progress-tools.x10.mx/winpl.html

Thanks for the answer. That was exactly what I am looking for.

If you are using Total Commander, then you should look for the progress pl plugin. It treats procedure libraries like a zipfile and with the plugin you can treat the .pl file like a file folder, including viewing files and copying files from the .pl
