Re: ExtProc() keyword confusion

Hi Tony,

Standard size on any name on a D Spec is 14, so GetTBatchPats will fit :-)

To define a name that is longer you just keep going and end the name on each
line with an elipse, as in

D This_is_a_very_very_very_very_very_very_very_very...
D _very_very_very_very_very_very_very_very_very_very...
D _very_very_Long_Name   PR
ExtProc('TheRealName')

HTH

Paul

I suspected that. Isn't there a way to make the procedure name longer, and
create a more meaningful name (GetTBatchPats)? I thought that's what the
ExtProc keyword was for.
