INFOR$–Internal Format Table Interface Routines
12.3.3. SELT$–Transfer to ELT$ Table from INFOR Table
The SELT$ routine transfers a field from the INFOR table to the ELT$ table.
The SELT$ routine is called by the MASM procedure I$NFOR. This procedure can be
used to generate the calling sequence for the relocatable version of the SELT$ routine,
the common bank version of the routine, or the common bank version of the routine
using the Auto Switch calling sequence. Section 3 describes the advantages and
disadvantages of using the different types of calls.
Calling Format
I$NFOR[,t] ‘SELT$’[,ftfn] [packet]
no-find return
find-return
Parameters
t
SELT$
ftfn
Type of call to SELT$. This parameter is optional and may be omitted. If CB or A is
specified, it must be enclosed by apostrophes.
blank Call the relocatable version of SELT$. This is the default if t is omitted.
'CB' Call the common bank version of SELT$.
'A' Call the common bank version of SELT$ using the Auto Switch method.
SELT$ is the function code which specifies which of the INFOR$ routines the
procedure I$NFOR should call. It must be enclosed by apostrophes.
Field that is transferred to the ELT$ table from the INFOR table. If this parameter is
omitted, the SELT$ routine uses the value in H2 of register A0. The value in S5 of
A0 is the field type and the value in S6 of A0 is the field number of the field to be
transferred.
ft Field type (see FT in Appendix G).
fn Field number (see FN in Appendix G).
The field type value may only be 1 (specification field). If 0 is specified, SELT$ will
use a field type value of 1. The field number value may be 1 or greater.
