Submit clipboard in EG

luthe — Wed, 10 Oct 2018 12:11:37 GMT

Hello, is there any approach to get SAS EG submitting code from the clipboard, similarly to GSUBMIT BUFFER=DEFAULT in DMS? E.g. a certain task, addin, or anyhow?

Thank you in advance

Hi and welcome to the forums!

Not that I know of. Code needs to be in a code node to be submitted from there.

Hello Kurt, Thanks for your welcome; and for your quick answer;

Could the code node somehow be reached otherwise, or could the workspace server be reached somehow directly? So, in a way to roundabout that node for submitting, but the results are fed back to that SAS EG session?

I could imagine that one could write a .NET application that uses the IOM bridge to start a workspace server and automatically submits code that is pasted into it.

I haven't yet dug deep enough into the keyboard macros of the enhanced editor to know if one could program a insert - submit sequence there.
