| Simple. Force the parent process to exit.

218.2 | Example?? | ANGORA::ZARLENGA | | Wed Mar 12 1986 22:29 | 4 |
| Jym, do you mean stop the parent process (ala stop/id=..)? I'm
not sure what you mean by FORCEX. Can you elaborate further?

| SYS$FORCEX() will force an image (not a process) to exit.

218.4 | Still stuck ... | SWIFT::SHERWOOD | I am not a noter, I am a free man | Thu Mar 13 1986 05:28 | 3 |

But FORCEXIT will not work if a SET NOON or an ON ERROR is included
in the command file :-)

or if AST's are disabled (I suspect-its 4 yrs since I was playin}ig
these games), or if the image uses repeating exit handlers

218.6 | Thanks | PLDVAX::ZARLENGA | | Thu Mar 13 1986 22:27 | 5 |
| Thanks for all the help. I wrote a program to execute the
sys$forcex call.
Is there a way to use this service from DCL?
