tf_read_sysdata()

Purpose

Reads the system data file (terminal manager's view). #include "SYSDATA.H".

Old name

#define readsysdata tf_read_sysdata

Syntax

void tf_read_sysdata(void);

Description

The tf_read_sysdata function reads the contents of the local DP4 licence file into the global variable sysdata. This reflects the terminal manager's view of the system, which may be different from the server's view if the program is running on a network.

The global variable sysdata is declared in the header file SYSDATA.H as:

extern struct SYSDATA sysdata
