Config.LangPart of Config module

Syntax   Config.Lang (langCode : int) : int

Description   Config.Lang returns information about the language and the limitations of the implementation that the program is currently running. The parameter langCode determines what sort of information is passed back. langCode has a number of possible values, all summarized by a set of predefined constants.

At the time of this writing, the following constants were defined:

clRelease return the current release number of the environment (e.g. 4.02 = 400).
clLanguageVersion return the current version number of the language (e.g. 1.81 = 181).
clMaxNumStreams return the maximum number of I/O streams (used by the open and close statements) that can be opened at once.
clMaxNumDirStreams return the maximum number of directory streams that can be opened at once.
clMaxNumRunTimeArgs return the maximum number of run-time arguments.

Example   This program prints the current environment version.

        const version : int := Config.Lang (clLanguageVersion)
        put "The language version number is ", version

Status   Exported qualified.

This means that you can only call the function by calling Config.Lang, not by calling Lang.
