IS-PLUGIN

Using a new field in ACUCOBOL.DEF, your COBOL program can determine whether or not it is running in a Web Browser via the ACUCOBOL-GT Web Browser Plug-in. The new field, known as IS-PLUGIN, is defined in the SYSTEM-INFORMATION group of ACUCOBOL.DEF.

For example, you could include the following code:

ACCEPT SYSTEM-INFORMATION FROM SYSTEM-INFO.

if IS-PLUGIN then

display message box "Running via the Web Browser Plug-in"

else

display message box "Running via the stand-alone runtime"

end-if.
