Direct either the current AMB paragraph name or one you designate to name a procedure generated by the AMB Precompiler, so that your program follows the conventions, requirements or preferences of a given application or installation.
Restriction: This topic applies only when the AppMaster Builder AddPack has been installed, and applies only to Windows platforms.
Syntax:
USERNAME paragraphname
General Rules:
- To activate any USERNAME statement, select the USERNAME option at compile time from the AMB Precompiler Options window; otherwise, the paragraph name for a generated procedure is G--nnn, where G means generated and
nnn begins with 001 and increases by one for each generated paragraph name in top-down order.
- When USERNAME is selected, AMB creates paragraph names as follows:
- AMB generates single dashes instead of double dashes.
- AMB uses the current paragraph name, unless USERNAME is coded in a paragraph. Then it uses that paragraph name until the end of the paragraph.
- USERNAME
paragraph applies only to names assigned for procedures generated as the direct result of code within the paragraph where USERNAME appears. When more than one USERNAME is coded in a paragraph, AMB assigns the first user-designated paragraph name until it is overrided by a second name in the AMB processing sequence.
- USERNAME does not appear in the generated code.
- Be careful to avoid any naming conflicts that can arise with USERNAME.
