| //--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- // Name: ABORT_PROCESS_BY_NUMBER // Description: Method will abort the process by number that was generated by the // New Process command. // // Parameters: // $1 (LONGINT) - Process Number // -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- C_LONGINT($1;$processNum;$i;$ID) C_COLLECTION($activity) $processNum:=$1 $activity:=Get process activity(Processes only).processes For ($i;0;$activity.length-1) If ($activity[$i].number=$processNum) $ID:=Num($activity[$i].ID) $i:=$activity.length+1 End if End for If ($ID>0) // Processes that are not internal processes ABORT PROCESS BY ID($ID) End if |
Here is an example of aborting the process by a given number:

With dot notation:
$c:=Get process activity(Processes only).processes.query("number = :1";$1)
if ($c.length=1)
ABORT PROCESS BY ID($c[0].ID)
end if
