Question & Answer
Question
How to call a Connect:Direct script or process using Perl programming (SCI48522)
Cause
Answer
Since there is no Perl API for Connect:Direct you will have to rely on the system function to perform a call to Connect:Direct in a Perl script.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
$ENV{NDMAPICFG}
="/home/cd3500/cdunix/ndm/cfg/cliapi/ndmapi.cfg";
my
$CDDIR="/home/cd3500/cdunix/ndm";
system("/home/cd3500/cdunix/ndm/bin
/direct -x? <<EOJ<BR>submit maxdelay=0 proc1 process snode=meg.cd.v3500
