Executing a shared library routine

Use the 4GL RUN statement to execute shared library routines. This is the syntax for RUN statements that execute shared library routines:

Syntax

RUN proc-name [ ( parameter-list ) ]

You use this statement in virtually the same way as for internal Progress procedures or external procedure files. The only differences are that positional arguments referenced in procedure files by ordinal identifiers ({1}, {2}, etc.) have no meaning for shared library routines (which cannot compile them), and errors returned by shared library routines do not raise the Progress error condition. They might, however, return error messages.
