Re: [netrexx-pipelines] Migrate OS/2 pipelines to NetRexx Pipes

[J L. T. <jlt...@ma...>]

	Would it not be possible to use something more Rexxish, like this abbrev() function?

| #include <locale>
| #include <string>
|
|  using namespace std;
| // ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
|   inline const bool abbrev(const string pattern,
|                            const string candidate,
|                            const  unsigned int minLength = pattern.length())
|    {return candidate.length() <= pattern.length() &
|            candidate.length() >= minLength        &
|            candidate.toupper() == pattern.substr(1,candidate.length()).toupper();
|    }

so e.g.
| :
| if (abbrev("locate",stagename,1)
|   call LOCATEstage
| :
and abbrev() could be used for other components as well.
