- TestRVI.bas - Simple REXX Variable Interface test
- =================================================
-
- This is a translation of one of the original REXX example programs.
-
- The example shows simple use of the REXX variable interface, a public
- REXX message port is created and commands retrieved from it, modifying RVI
- variables as it goes. Whilst it shows simple RVI usage, as an example REXX
- host its a very poor example!
-
- The example will work on versions of Workbench 2.0 or later (V36 and above)
-
- Compiling
- ---------
- Load the VarTest_inc.bh file and Tokenise it (Program-Tokenise), making
- sure you have no token file selected in the File Options (Settings-Compiler-
- Files). Once you have your token file, set the File Options-Token File setting
- to the VarTest_inc.t file just created. Load the VarTest.bas file,
- compile & run it.
-
- Once you have the program running the test script TestRVI.rexx may be run from
- a CLI via "rx TestRVI.rexx".
