Declare Function Get_Repos_Entities, Repository, Get_Status

AppID = @APPID<1>  ;* current application

TypeID = "STPROC"  ;* OpenInsight stored procedures

ClassID = ""  ;* Not Applicable

Stored_Proc_Name = 'CENTERWINDOW'

noteparam = 'This is a note set through REPOSITORY("FLAG")'

entid = AppID : '*' : TypeID : '*' : ClassID : '*' : Stored_Proc_Name

 

result = Repository("FLAG", entid, noteparam, '' ,3,0,'')
