Re: Exit Point Names

Still using exit points( should it not be entry points?)...

Well, sort of. Except the name makes perfect sense from the perspective
of the namer.

Exit Points are places in IBM Code that allow users like you and I to
register our own programs and "exit" out of the IBM code to perform some
user function. Thus the FTP and the ODBC (SQL really) "exit points" are
places where the programmer who wrote these IBM server programs provided
us with an opportunity to "exit" out of the server code and have our own
code do something else (like security and logging).

If you look at the WRKREGINF display (where all exit points are
registered) you will see that there are a wealth of "exit points" that
you can register your own programs to. Many of these (like the "SEU
exit point") have nothing to do with data entering or exiting your
system, they're just places where you can exit from IBM code to do your
own stuff.

Have you alsoset that at the level of the data source on the
client (windows based, I assume).

I would think a simple user do not know the jist of this, at all.

Still using exit points( should it not be entry points?) to
test an decline access is still required.
