DOSPARAM()
Retrieves the DOS command line as a string
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
DOSPARAM() --> cDOSCommandLine
Returns
DOSPARAM() returns the parameters from the DOS command line.
Description
DOSPARAM() returns all the parameters passed from the DOS command when
you run the application. Use DOSPARAM() when you do not want the
parameters to be separated. With this function, it is no longer
necessary to check each individual parameter in a loop.
Note
. With the TOKEN() function, it is easy to break down the
returned character string. It can also use your own rules.
Example
Given the DOS command line C>MyApp A: C: /a ,
the following is true:
DOSPARAM() // "A: C: /a"
TOKEN(DOSPARAM()) // "A"
This way, it is easy to break down parameter lines according to your own
rules.
