RDK & [EXECUTE PROCEDURES]

AusMarkB · January 8

I'm using [EXECUTE PROCEDURES] to run a routine during an install but was wondering if there was a syntax for the %PROCESS% record to allow the passing of a parameter.

I'm wanting to run a routine both before and after, so in [EXECUTE PROCEDURES] and [EXECUTE PROCEDURES POST,] but was hoping to use the same routine and just a pass a param to differentiate between before and after.
I'm hoping it's just the syntax that escapes me and not the functionality.

Just looking at the default source for RDKmoduleInstall suggests that parameters aren't supported


      case Section = EXECPROC$
       * structure of line is procname
        call @Line
        
      case Section = EXECPROCPOST$
        proglines:= line:@fm

I suppose you could write your own variant of RDKmoduleInstall and copy the compiled code to %RUN% in SYSUPGRADE..

That's what my memory said but I don't have a copy of rdkmoduleinstall source to confirm or to modify.
Don't really want to modify it anyway.

What I did do, was create a separate function of the same name as my original with "_POST" concatenated and it's sole function is to call the one I want with the post parameter. That works for me whilst still keeping all the logic in the one place.
