1.$ CREATE DOFOR.COM $ ON WARNING THEN EXIT $ IF P1.EQS."" THEN INQUIRE P1 FILE $ FORTRAN/LIST 'P1' $ LINK 'P1' $ RUN 'P1' $ PRINT 'P1' <Ctrl/Z> $ @DOFOR AVERAGE This example shows a command procedure, named DOFOR.COM, that executes the FORTRAN, LINK, and RUN commands to compile, link, and execute a program. The ON command requests that the procedure not continue if any of the commands result in warnings or errors. When you execute DOFOR.COM, you can pass the file specification of the FORTRAN program as the parameter P1. If you do not specify a value for P1 when you execute the procedure, the INQUIRE command issues a prompting message to the terminal and equates what you enter with the symbol P1. In this example, the file name AVERAGE is assigned to P1. The file type is not included because the commands FORTRAN, LINK, RUN, and PRINT provide default file types. 2.$ @MASTER/OUTPUT=MASTER.LOG This command executes a procedure named MASTER.COM; all output is written to the file MASTER.LOG. 3.$ CREATE FILES.COM *.FOR, *.OBJ <Ctrl/Z> $ DIRECTORY @FILES This example shows a command procedure, FILES.COM, that contains parameters for a DCL command line. The entire file is treated by DCL as command input. You can execute this procedure after the DIRECTORY command to get a listing of all FORTRAN source and object files in your current default directory. 4.$ CREATE QUALIFIERS.COM /DEBUG/SYMBOL_TABLE/MAP/FULL/CROSS_REFERENCE <Ctrl/Z> $ LINK SYNAPSE@QUALIFIERS This example shows a command procedure, QUALIFIERS.COM, that contains qualifiers for the LINK command. When you enter the LINK command, specify the command procedure immediately after the file specification of the file you are linking. Do not type a space between the file specification and the @ command. 5.$ CREATE SUBPROCES.COM $ RUN 'P1' - /BUFFER_LIMIT=1024 - /FILE_LIMIT=4 - /PAGE_FILES=256 - /QUEUE_LIMIT=2 - /SUBPROCESS_LIMIT=2 - 'P2' 'P3' 'P4' 'P5' 'P6' 'P7' 'P8' <Ctrl/Z> $ @SUBPROCES LIBRA /PROCESS_NAME=LIBRA This example shows a command procedure named SUBPROCES.COM. This procedure issues the RUN command to create a subprocess to execute an image and also contains qualifiers defining quotas for subprocess creation. The name of the image to be run is passed as the parameter P1. Parameters P2 to P8 can be used to specify additional qualifiers. In this example, the file name LIBRA is equated to P1; it is the name of an image to execute in the subprocess. The qualifier /PROCESS_NAME=LIBRA is equated to P2; it is an additional qualifier for the RUN command. 6.$ CREATE EDOC.COM $ ASSIGN SYS$COMMAND: SYS$INPUT $ NEXT: $ INQUIRE NAME "File name" $ IF NAME.EQS."" THEN EXIT $ EDIT/TPU 'NAME'.DOC $ GOTO NEXT <Ctrl/Z> $ @EDOC This procedure, named EDOC.COM, invokes the EVE editor. When an edit session is terminated, the procedure loops to the label NEXT. Each time through the loop, the procedure requests another file name for the editor and supplies the default file type .DOC. When a null line is entered in response to the INQUIRE command, the procedure terminates with the EXIT command. The ASSIGN command changes the equivalence name of SYS$INPUT for the duration of the procedure. This change allows the EVE editor to read input data from the terminal, rather than from the command procedure file (the default input data stream if SYS$INPUT had not been changed). When the command procedure exits, SYS$INPUT is reassigned to its original value. 7.! PEOPLE.DAT ! A set of data with embedded key qualifiers for the SORT command. ! ! Usage: SORT@PEOPLE.DAT ! /KEY=(POS:10,SIZE:10) sys$input people.out Fred Flintstone 555-1234 Barney Rubble 555-2244 Wilma Flintstone 555-1234 Betty Rubble 555-2244 George Slate 555-8911 Dino Dinosaur 555-1234 $! $ purge people.out $ type people.out Creates a sorted list of people in file PEOPLE.OUT and displays it. This demonstrates when using "@" in the middle of a DCL command, DCL redirects the entire file as command input. 8.$ CREATE SUBPROCES.COM $ RUN 'P1' - /BUFFER_LIMIT=1024 - /FILE_LIMIT=4 - /PAGE_FILES=256 - /QUEUE_LIMIT=2 - /SUBPROCESS_LIMIT=2 - 'P2' 'P3' 'P4' 'P5' 'P6' 'P7' 'P8' 'P9' 'P10' 'P11' 'P12' 'P13' 'P14' 'P15' 'P16' <Ctrl/Z> $ @SUBPROCES LIBRA /PROCESS_NAME=LIBRA This example shows a command procedure named SUBPROCES.COM. This procedure issues the RUN command to create a subprocess to execute an image and also contains qualifiers defining quotas for subprocess creation. The name of the image to be run is passed as the parameter P1. Parameters P2 to P16 can be used to specify additional qualifiers. This is applicable if bit 3 of DCL_CTLFAGS is set to 1. In this example, the file name LIBRA is equated to P1; it is the name of an image to execute in the subprocess. The qualifier /PROCESS_NAME=LIBRA is equated to P2; it is an additional qualifier for the RUN command.
