Specifies host commands to be executed before driver initialization.
Used by: GOPTIONS statement, GDEVICE procedure, GDEVICE Host Commands window
Restriction: not supported by Java or ActiveX

Syntax

DRVINIT1='system-command(s)'
DRVINIT2='system-command(s)'

Parameter Values

system-command(s)
specifies a character string that is a valid system command and can be in upper- or lowercase letters. You can include more than one command in the string if you separate the commands with a command delimiter, which is host-specific; for example, some operating environments use a semicolon. The length of the entire string cannot exceed 72 characters.

Details

The DRVINIT command is executed before the driver is initialized. DRVINIT is typically used with FILECLOSE=DRIVERTERM to allocate a host file needed by the device driver.
