 AX_GetInstallInfo()
 Returns Advantage Database Server installation information
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Syntax

     AX_GetInstallInfo() -> array

Returns
     Returns an 8 element array with Advantage Database Server installation
     information containing the following data:

     [1] = (numeric) Advantage user option purchased
     [2] = (string) Registered owner
     [3] = (string) Advantage Database Server version
     [4] = (string) Installation date
     [5] = (string) OEM/Localized character set
     [6] = (string) ANSI character set
     [7] = (string) Evaluation unit expiration date
     [8] = (string) Advantage Database Server serial number

     - or -

     Returns an empty array if an error occurred. If an error occurred,
     AX_Error() will return information on why the function failed.

Description

    AX_GetInstallInfo() returns an array containing Advantage Database Server
    installation information such as the Advantage Database Server version
    and the installation date.

    It is possible that the number of elements in the returned installation
    information array will increase in future releases of Advantage.  Since
    it is possible to use a newer version of the Advantage Database Server
    with an older version of the Advantage CA-Clipper Client, any new and
    additional installation data that may exist if using a newer version of
    the Advantage Database Server will not be returned in the returned array.

    Since it is possible that the number of elements in the installation
    information array will increase in future releases of Advantage, it is
    highly recommended that the length of the returned array be calculated
    using the Len() function, rather than hard-coding the expected length to
    a literal value.

Example

    // Must first get a connection to the Advantage Database Server
    USE x:dummy.dbf VIA "DBFCDXAX"

    aInstallInfo := AX_GetInstallInfo()

    // Display all installation info
    for i := 1 to Len( aInstallInfo )
       ? aInstallInfo[i]
    next
