The parameter handling of the Object REXX interpreter is different than
the parameter handling of the Classic REXX interpreter if started via the
<START command:
In Object REXX programs started via <START without a parameter the
function arg( 1, 'e' ) always return true (there's always a parameter with
the value " " [0x20]).
Try the code below using
start test.cmd
in Classic REXX and in Object REXX and compare the results to see the
difference.
/* test.cmd */
parse arg arguments
say
say
say 'The result of "arg( 1, ''e'' )" is "' || arg( 1, 'e' ) || '".'
say
say 'Arguments are "' || arguments || '" (in hex: "' || c2x( arguments ) || '".)'
say
parse version versionString
say "REXX interpreter is " versionString
say
"pause"
