;*********************************************************************** ;* * ;* REMOTE.ASP COPYRIGHT (C) 1990 DATASTORM TECHNOLOGIES, INC. * ;* * ;* Purpose : This ASPECT module illustrates a simple way to cause * ;* remote execution of a local script file. This provides an * ;* alternative to sending several remote commands separately where * ;* each command would require separate compilation before it could * ;* be executed. The file you send can be in source or compiled * ;* form. The name for the file received and executed at the * ;* remote machine is defined in REMFILE below. * ;* * ;* You could easily have a local script interact with the script * ;* being executed remotely using RGET or WAITFOR commands for * ;* timing or branching to specific tasks. You may also want to * ;* consider deleting the script from the remote upon completion of * ;* its execution. This could easily be accomplished by modifying * ;* this script to WAITFOR a response from the remote script which * ;* indicates that it has finished executing, and then issuing a * ;* remote command such as "^Ddos `"del $ASP_TMP.*`"^M". * ;* * ;* Remember : The remote machine MUST have Remote Commands set ON in * ;* its General Options setup screen. * ;* * ;*********************************************************************** define REMFILE "$ASP_TMP" ; filename received by remote proc main string filename,xmitfile,xmitstr integer extndx vidsave 0 box 4 18 18 60 14 atsay 5 24 15 "REMOTE SCRIPT EXECUTION FACILITY" atsay 6 19 14 "-----------------------------------------" atsay 8 20 15 "Enter the ASPECT filename:" atget 8 47 112 12 filename isfile filename if failure sound 220 10 atsay 10 20 15 "File not found..." pause 3 else find filename "." extndx substr xmitfile filename extndx 4 strupr xmitfile strfmt xmitfile "%s%s" REMFILE xmitfile atsay 10 20 15 "Sending script file to remote..." strfmt xmitstr "^Dgetfile xmodem `"%s`"^M" xmitfile transmit xmitstr atsay 12 20 15 "Pausing for remote compilation..." pause 5 sendfile xmodem filename if failure sound 220 20 atsay 14 20 15 "Error sending file to remote" pause 3 else pause 3 atsay 14 20 15 "Sending EXECUTE command sequence..." strfmt xmitstr "^Dexecute `"%s`"^M" xmitfile transmit xmitstr pause 3 sound 440 20 atsay 16 20 15 "Operation completed -- Press any key" keyget endif endif vidrest 0 endproc
