Process Language Syntax
This topic describes the syntax used in IBM® Connect:Direct® Processes. If you use the Connect:Direct Browser User Interface Process Builder or the IBM Connect:Direct Requester to create Processes, some of these syntax rules are performed automatically by the software.
Those following symbols are defined as special characters, delimiters, and operators in IBM Connect:Direct:
| - | hyphen | || | two vertical bars | & | ampersand |
| (blank) | ¬ | (not sign) | ’ | (single quotation mark) | |
| < | (less-than sign) | / | (slash) | " | (double quotation mark) |
| > | (greater-than sign) | \ | (backslash) | [ ] | (brackets) |
| ( ) | (parentheses) | , | (comma) | { } | (braces) |
| = | (equal sign) | . | (period) | * | (asterisk) |
Note: The EBCDIC Hex value for
the slash ( /) is x’61’ and x’EO’ for the backslash (\) . The EBCDIC
Hex value for the vertical bar (|) is X’4F.
