obtainContextForServer

Function used to obtain the context properties to pass to the server.

Location: containr.p

Parameters: None

Returns: CHARACTER

Notes:

The server must know whether or not this is the first call. Determining whether or not it is the first call can be done using either one of the following:

Client: AsHasStarted = no until a response from server

Server: serverFirstCall = no unless client passes YES

Two similar properties are provided to support different defaults on client and server.

Note: This function is always called before an Appserver call and is used to send context in initializeServerObject as well as in all data requests.
