Passing a global symbol back to a parent process

Is there any way to have a SPAWNed subprocess pass a global symbol back to its parent process?

No.

But it can define a job logical.

... and if really needed as symbol value, equate the symbol to 'f$trnlnm('the_lnm')

Proost.

Re: Passing a global symbol back to a parent process

Craig,

from your Forum Profile:


I have assigned points to of responses to my questions.

One of those dates back to 2004.

Maybe you can find some time to do some assigning?

http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/helptips.do?#33

Mind, I do NOT say you necessarily need to give lots of points. It is fully up to _YOU_ to decide how many. If you consider an answer is not deserving any points, you can also assign 0 ( = zero ) points, and then that answer will no longer be counted as unassigned.
Consider, that every poster took at least the trouble of posting for you!

To easily find your streams with unassigned points, click your own name somewhere.
This will bring up your profile.
Near the bottom of that page, under the caption "My Question(s)" you will find "questions or topics with unassigned points " Clicking that will give all, and only, your questions that still have unassigned postings.

Thanks on behalf of your Forum colleagues.

PS. - nothing personal in this. I try to post it to everyone with this kind of assignment ratio in this forum. If you have received a posting like this before - please do not take offence - none is intended!

PPS. - Zero points for this.

Proost.

Have one on me.

Re: Passing a global symbol back to a parent process

Thanks!

I started thinking about it and that's exactly what I did (have the sub-process create a job-level logical and have the parent process translate it).
