Returns the name of the front-end used for Universal Rendering.
Syntax
ui.Interface.getUniversalClientName()
RETURNS STRING
Usage
The ui.Interface.getUniversalClientName()
class method returns the name of the
front-end used to achieve Universal Rendering.
Note: The
getUniversalClientName()
method is especially useful for debugging
purpose. Consider writing code that is not dependent on the Native Rendering or Universal Rendering
mode.When Universal Rendering mode is used, this method returns "GBC"
.
Important: When calling this method, the user interface module of the
runtime system will initialize. As a result, in text mode, the terminal will be initialized and get
some escape sequences. This may corrupt standard output when executing batch programs. Consider
testing the FGLGUI environment variable, if you want to check that the batch program is executing in
text mode.
