Default front calls

The GGC handles several front call implementations.

Table 1 lists the front calls handled by the GGC and their return values.

Table 1. Default front calls
Front call	Description	Returned value
`standard.feInfo("feName")`	Returns the front-end name.	By default, the GGC returns: "GBC" when using an HTTP connection (ua). "GDC" when using an direct connection (tcp). However, the value may have been overwritten by the --fename option when executing the test scenario, see: ggcadmin. fglrun and the Genero BDL test scenario.
`standard.feInfo("isActivex")`	Returns if the front-end runs in active X mode. The GGC does not run in active X mode.	0
`standard.feInfo("osType")`	Returns the operating system type where the front-end is running.	Returns "Windows" if running on Windows. Returns "Unix" if NOT running on Windows.
`standard.feInfo("numScreens")`	Returns the number of screens available on the front-end platform.	1
`standard.getEnv("NAME")`	Returns the name of an environment variable, for example, `standard.getEnv("FGLDIR")`	The value of the environment variable "`NAME`" on the front-end side.
