When invoked on a station instance, _open initializes a station interface instance and enables access to distributed messaging services. The station instanceName must be unique to the SAS session in which _open is invoked. The _open method must be successfully invoked before any point-to-point or queue messaging can take place.

The instanceName parameter represents a collection name in the queue messaging environment. A collection is a user-defined grouping of queues that is managed by the same collection manager.

Example

This example opens the station interface instance DMMAPPL.

stationid = loadclass('sashelp.connect.station');
stationInst = instance(stationid);
call send(stationInst, '_open', "DMMAPPL", rc);
