GOAL:
How to know in which Operating System and version an Application is Running?
GOAL:
How to get the Operating System and version using 4GL statements.
FIX:
Use the OPSYS function to shield operating system calls.
Checking for the Operating System Example:
MESSAGE OPSYS VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX.
This will return the current Operating System.
If version is required run the following code:
DEFINE VARIABLE v_sysname AS char format "x(50)".
CASE OPSYS:
WHEN "WIN32" THEN OS-COMMAND SILENT ver > version.txt.
WHEN "UNIX" THEN OS-COMMAND SILENT uname -a > version.txt.
END CASE.
INPUT FROM version.txt.
DO WHILE TRUE:
IMPORT UNFORMATTED v_sysname.
IF v_sysname NE "" THEN MESSAGE v_sysname VIEW-AS ALERT-BOX INFORMATION.
END.
INPUT CLOSE.
