FGL_SYSTEM()

Runs a command on the application server.

Syntax

FGL_SYSTEM(
   command STRING )

command is the command line to be executed on the server.

Usage

The FGL_SYSTEM() function suspends the execution of the program and executes the command passed as parameter on the application server where fglrun is executed. The command is executed in a new shell and the program is suspended until the command terminates.

When running the program in TUI mode, the terminal is switched to line mode before executing the command passed to the FGL_SYSTEM() function.

This function is provided for backward compatibility. In older versions, the function could raise a terminal emulator on the front-end to show the command output on the workstation. This feature is no longer supported.
