1897.0. "Application Creation: Startup " by ROMEDU::NEBBIA (Mario Nebbia @RIO - EDU Rome Italy) Fri Dec 04 1992 08:01

I am creating an application (SM CSZ C). The form to create an application
includes a field named "Startup", that contains a default value
"DO OA$LIB:CM_DEFINE_APPLICATION_LOG".

Can anybody please exaplain the meaning of that field? Is the script
supposed to be customized, invoked by me, invoked by the user, automaticaly
executed, or what else?

I looked in the Manager's Guide, but I was unable to find detailed infos:
is there any other documentation I can use?

Regards

						Mario

	CM_DEFINE_APPLICATION_LOG is a script file that is called during ALL-IN-1 startup. Its function is to loop through all the authorized locations for an application that are defined in CM$AUTH$LOCATIONS and define a system logical name for each. So if you have this scripts specified as the application startup command you get all the logical names defined for you free of charge. On the other hand you can provide your own script. This might be required if you want to do something special, like define logical search lists or install images for use with AIM. In this case I'd recommend that you create a jacket procedure that: -- Calls CM_DEFINE_APPLICATION_LOG to define the logicals as normal -- Then proceeds to perform whatever special initialization or startup processing is required. Clear? Tony
