A-Shell Consolidated Reference

xcall MIAMEX, MX_IXCALL, sbrnam, xcbadr, status

MX_IXCALL (MIAMEX 115) allows you to forward the calling parameter from one SBX subroutine to another, evaluating the new subroutine name on the fly.

Parameters

sbrnam  (String)  [in]

is the name of the new subroutine to call.

xcbadr  (F6)  [in]

is the address of the parameter structure which was passed to the original routine.

status (F6)  [out]

will return 0 for success, >0 for subroutine not found or unable to load, else <0 for other system errors.

Comments

MX_IXCALL is used in the RXCALL.SBX routine, which allows you to remotely call a routine running on another machine. See the documentation on SBX Subroutines about RXCALL, as well as for information on the subroutine parameter structure.
