Application Building Guide

REXX

You do not compile or bind REXX programs.

On OS/2, your application file must have a .cmd extension. After creation, you can run your application directly from the operating system command prompt.

An OS/2 REXX program must contain a comment that begins in the first column of the first line, to distinguish it from a batch command:

/* Any comment will do. */

REXX sample programs can be found in the directory %DB2PATH%\samples\rexx. To run the sample REXX program updat, enter:

   updat

For further information on REXX and DB2, refer to the chapter, "Programming in REXX", in the Application Development Guide.
