# rexxsyslib.library — ARexx Interface
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Overview
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
ARexx is the Amiga's built-in macro/scripting language (based on REXX). `rexxsyslib.library` provides APIs for hosting ARexx ports, sending commands, and receiving results.

## Adding an ARexx Port
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```c
|
||
|
|
struct MsgPort *arexxPort = CreateMsgPort();
|
||
|
|
arexxPort->mp_Node.ln_Name = "MYAPP";
|
||
|
|
arexxPort->mp_Node.ln_Pri = 0;
|
||
|
|
AddPort(arexxPort);
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
/* In event loop, check for ARexx messages: */
|
||
|
|
struct RexxMsg *rmsg;
|
||
|
|
while ((rmsg = (struct RexxMsg *)GetMsg(arexxPort))) {
|
||
|
|
STRPTR cmd = ARG0(rmsg); /* the command string */
|
||
|
|
/* Parse and execute command... */
|
||
|
|
rmsg->rm_Result1 = 0; /* RC = 0 (success) */
|
||
|
|
rmsg->rm_Result2 = 0;
|
||
|
|
ReplyMsg((struct Message *)rmsg);
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
RemPort(arexxPort);
|
||
|
|
DeleteMsgPort(arexxPort);
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||

|
|
## Sending ARexx Commands
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```c
|
||
|
|
struct MsgPort *replyPort = CreateMsgPort();
|
||
|
|
struct RexxMsg *rmsg = CreateRexxMsg(replyPort, NULL, NULL);
|
||
|
|
rmsg->rm_Args[0] = CreateArgstring("QUIT", 4);
|
||
|
|
rmsg->rm_Action = RXCOMM;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
struct MsgPort *target = FindPort("TARGETAPP");
|
||
|
|
if (target) {
|
||
|
|
PutMsg(target, &rmsg->rm_Node);
|
||
|
|
WaitPort(replyPort);
|
||
|
|
GetMsg(replyPort);
|
||
|
|
/* rmsg->rm_Result1 = return code */
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DeleteArgstring(rmsg->rm_Args[0]);
|
||
|
|
DeleteRexxMsg(rmsg);
|
||
|
|
DeleteMsgPort(replyPort);
|
||
|
|
```
