Execute Windows programs and/or access files using the O/S interoperability commands
and functions.
Functioning occurs at the Windows O/S level, which imposes its own rules and constraints,
such as:
- The uopen command and ucreate command return a
Windows file-handle. These are a limited resource and must be released explicitly.
- The variable returned by the uexecute command, and used by the
uwaitfor command or the umessage command, is
also a Windows file-handle. Changing the variable, and then feeding the result to the
uwaitfor command or the umessage command could
cause unpredictable results.
