LINUX environment variable:
 
For each User Exit you want to implement, set the environment variable to specify the pathname of the Open C API program you want to execute. The format of the Linux command for setting these variables is:
 
setenv USER_FILE "/root1/test"
 
 NOTE: In the above example, NX executes the Open C API program called "test" whenever it encounters a User Exit at the File-->Save menu option.
 
 
Windows  environment variable:
 
For each User Exit you want to implement, set the environment variable to specify the pathname of the Open C API program you want to execute. The format of the Windows command for setting these variables is:
 
From the NX Command Prompt:
 
set USER_FILE=Z:\exits\test
 
After you set your variable, you can invoke NX from the NX Command Prompt by entering: "ugii".
 
NOTE: In the above example, NX executes the Open C API program called "test" whenever it encounters a User Exit at the File-->Save menu option.
 
USER_DEFAULT:
 
You can use a default variable named USER_DEFAULT. This variable is then used for all exits. Each entry in the shared library executable image that this variable points to is run when the exit occurs. If you have a specific variable defined, it takes precedence over the USER_DEFAULT variable.
 
For each user exit you want to implement, set the environment variable to specify the pathname of the program you want to execute. GRIP programs must be preceded by an asterisk (*) in the file specification that the environment variable points to. You omit the asterisk for Open C API programs.
 
.ugii_env:
 
You can define the environment variable in the .ugii_env file by including a line like the following for Open C API:
 
USER_CREATE = /users/userfcn/<image name>
 
or use the following for GRIP:
 
USER_CREATE = */users/userfcn/<image name>
