*OPENUSEIP (SETMODE)

PLBCMP Only

*OPENUSEIP={value}

The *OPENUSEIP control allows a program to change the current string settings for PLB_OPENUSEIP. The use of this keywords allows automatic redirection of files in a program to a data manager without making any source changes to the program.

{value} is a previously defined Character String Variable that specifies the default IP address and port number used for all non-redirected file OPENs. If the input variable is a Null String, the current string setting is removed. This opens non-redirected files in a normal manner.

The FINDFILE instruction behavior is also modified by this control. When defined, FINDFILE will access files on the data manager.
