#1 Updated by Greg Shah over 1 year ago

We already do some level of parsing of the CONNECT options/parameters and even -pf files (e.g. #4392). If we provided more general support for this, then we could achieve:

  • The ability for these to be specified in the directory instead of forcing a customer to find each option and manually translate it into our configuration. So the migration would have less friction.
  • The ability to implement a replacement for the OE command line programs for running a 4GL session (e.g. _progres, pro, mpro, prowin32.exe). This would make it easier to try FWD AND it would make it possible for existing child process launching (e.g. OS-COMMAND) in a 4GL application to "just work" out of the box.
