5.4.1.3 IS-PLUGIN field in ACUCOBOL.DEF

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

For example, you can include the following code:

     ACCEPT SYSTEM-INFORMATION FROM SYSTEM-INFO.
     if IS-PLUGIN then
        display message box "Running via the Web Plug-in"
     else
        display message box "Running via stand-alone runtime"
     end-if.
