$QMCALL Compiler Directive

The $QMCALL compiler directive controls access to a catalogued subroutine via QMClient.

Format

$QMCALL

QMClient includes the ability to restring which catalogued subroutines may be called directly by the client interface.

For processes running with the QMCLIENT configuration parameter set to 2, this directive makes the subroutine in which it appears available for calling using the QMClient API QMCall function. This subroutine may then call other subroutines that may or may not include this compiler directive.

By using the QMCLIENT configuration parameter and this directive, it is possible to restrict the actions of a QMClient session thus allowing tighter control of QMClient security.
