old-filespec
OpenVMS usage:char_string
type: character string
access: read only
mechanism: by descriptor
File specification to be trimmed. The old-filespec argument
contains the address of a descriptor pointing to this file
specification string.
The file specification should be an RMS resultant name string.
new-filespec
OpenVMS usage:char_string
type: character string
access: write only
mechanism: by descriptor
Trimmed file specification. The new-filespec argument contains
the address of a descriptor pointing to this trimmed file
specification string. LIB$TRIM_FILESPEC writes the trimmed file
specification into new-filespec.
word-integer-width
OpenVMS usage:word_unsigned
type: word (unsigned)
access: read only
mechanism: by reference
Maximum field width desired. The word-integer-width argument is
the address of an unsigned word that contains this maximum field
width.
If omitted, the current length of new-filespec is used. If new-
filespec is not a fixed-length string, you should specify word-
integer-width to ensure that the desired width is used.
resultant-length
OpenVMS usage:word_unsigned
type: word (unsigned)
access: write only
mechanism: by reference
Length of the trimmed file specification, not including any blank
padding or truncated characters. The resultant-length argument is
the address of an unsigned word that contains this length. This
is an optional argument.
