GOAL:
How to run procedures in character mode within OpenEdge Architect
FACT(s) (Environment):
Windows
OpenEdge 10.0x
FIX:
In order to run procedures in character mode, you have to set the TTY runtime option at the Project level:
In OE Architect, open your Project and select it in the Resources tree view. In the menubar, select Properties --> OpenEdge --> toggle the "Use TTY for runtime" option ON.
Then, create your ABL procedure, save it in the Project and select the .p in the Resources tree view. Right-click toolbar button "Run" --> as TTY. This will run the procedure in character mode.
To access the character procedure editor, you have to modify the Architect runtime properties as follows:
Right-click on the Project in the Resources view. In the context menu, select OpenEdge>> Restart OpenEdge Runtime. This will visualize a TTY runtime window (because you?ve set the TTY runtime option above).
Right-click in the TTY runtime window title bar and select Properties Layout. Modify the Layout to 80 width and 25 height. Click OK. In the resulting pop-up window, toggle on ?Save properties for future windows with the
same title and click OK. Now, restart the OE Runtime again as you did in the step above.
Back in OEArchitect, choose the Procedure Editor icon (or select OpenEdge >> Tools >> Procedure Editor). You should now see the character Procedure Editor in the OE runtime windows.
