Using the Progress AppServer
Resolving Remote Procedure Names
If a procedure is on the export list, or if no export list is set, the Application Server process determines which procedure to run using the PROPATH setting and standard procedure name resolution rules that apply to the RUN statement.
Also, the following issues can affect how procedure names are resolved:
- The directory in which an Application Server process starts might affect how a procedure name is resolved because remote procedure requests and the PROPATH setting might contain unqualified (relative) pathnames.
- An Application Server process runs in the same directory as the Application Broker that starts it. Therefore, carefully consider what directory the Application Broker starts in because procedure names might be resolved relative to this directory. See Administration." for more information on setting up Application Brokers.
For more information on the PROPATH environment variable, see Administration." For more information on the standard name resolution rules, see the RUN statement entry in the Progress Language Reference .
