Module
DMSSYN (SYNONYM)
Function
PROGRAM TO SET UP USER DEFINED COMMAND NAMES AND
ABBREVIATIONS FOR CMS COMMANDS.
Attributes
TRANSIENT (WITH SYSTEM OPTION); SERIALLY REUSABLE.
Operation
SYNONYM CHECKS IF THERE ARE ANY PARAMETERS OR OPTIONS,
IF NONE AND THE NOABBREV FLAG IN THE NUCLEUS IS NOT ON SYSTEM
ABBREVIATIONS ARE TYPED; IF ANY USER SYNONYMS, THOSE ARE
TYPED ALSO. IF A FILE NAME IS GIVEN IT IS SAVED AND FLAGS
ARE SET FOR ANY OPTIONS. IF GIVEN, THE FILEID SPECIFIED IS
CHECKED (VIA STATE) FOR A FIXED 80 CHARACTER
FORMAT. THE STORAGE FOR AN OLD USERS SYNONYM TABLE IS RELEASED
IF ANY, AND STORAGE IS OBTAINED (VIA DMSFRE) FOR THE USER
COMMAND NAMES. EACH USER SYNONYM IS READ (DMSBRD) AND THE
RECORD IS FORMATTED (VIA A COPY OF SCAN) FOR EASE IN HAND-
LING. THEN EACH COMMAND NAME, SYNONYM AND COUNT IS MOVED TO
THE FREE STORAGE BLOCK. AT END-OF-FILE THE FILE IS CLOSED
(FINIS) AND A POINTER TO THE FREE STORAGE BLOCK IS SET
IN DMSINA. NEXT THE OPTIONS ARE HANDLED AS FOLLOWS:
CLEAR - RELEASE (DMSFRE) THE OLD USER SYNOMYM TABLE, IF ANY
NOTE: THIS HAS NO EFFECT IF A FILEID IS
SPECIFIED SINCE THE OLD TABLE IS ALWAYS
ERASED BEFORE THE NEW ONE IS BUILT
STD - CLEAR NOABBREV FLAG IN NUCON
NOSTD - SET NOABBREV FLAB IN NUCON
FINALLY RETURN TO CALLER WITH RETURN CODE IN REGISTER 15.
