prordd() - Read DATE Variable

The prordd() function reads the value of a shared DATE variable.

On successful completion, prordd() returns 0; otherwise, it returns a non-zero value:

Syntax

int prordd ( psymnam, index, pyear, pmonth, pday, punknown ) char *psymnam; int index; int *pyear; int *pmonth; int *pday; int *punknown;

psymnam

This input parameter points to the name of the specified shared DATE variable. You supply the name from your OpenEdge application.

index

This input parameter specifies an index value for an array variable. If the variable is not an array, you must set the value of index to 0.

pyear

This output parameter points to an integer where prordd() returns the value of year.

pmonth

This output parameter points to an integer where prordd() returns the value of month.

pday

This output parameter points to an integer where prordd() returns the value of day.

punknown

This output parameter points to an integer where prordd() returns 1 if the variable has the Unknown value (?), and returns 0 otherwise.
