Allows the child program to retrieve strings passed to it by the parent program.
RPMGETSTRING (rpmstring,rpmstringlen,result)
rpmstring | Packed array of characters (Pascal); word |
| array (FORTRAN), by reference. A variable length |
| array containing the string passed in the opt parameter of the |
| RPMCreate call which scheduled this child program. |
rpmstringlen | |
(input/output) | input, rpmstringlen is the maximum byte length allowed for |
| the rpmstring. On output, rpmstringlen indicates the |
| actual length of the returned rpmstring. A string longer than |
| what the buffer can accommodate will be truncated. In RTEA |
| the maximum string length retrieved with RPMGetString is |
| 256 bytes. |
| If there is no string received in rpmstring, an error is |
| returned in result. |
result | |
| The result of the RPMGetString request; zero if no error. If |
| result is not zero, an error has occurred. Errors are defined |
| in the NSARPA/1000 Error Message and Recover Manual. |
