PREPRM, PREPRO, PREPF$, and POSTPR$
PREPF$ generates the source input and source output fields of PARTBL (see Figure
14–1).
Initial Condition
PARTBL must be externally defined, and at least 27 decimal words in length, and should
be zero-filled.
Calling Sequence
LMJ X11,PREPF$
error return
normal return
PREPF$ transfers information from the source input and source output parameters of
the processor call line to PARTBL. The options specified on the processor call statement
control how the information is placed in PARTBL. The options and associated results are
as follows:
• No options
− If only the SI field is given, it is assumed to be the output file.
− If only the SO field is given, an error message is printed and the error return is
taken.
− If both SI and SO fields are given, the files are assigned.
− If the SI and SO fields are not given, the PARTBL internal filename for SI and SO
is set to 12 fieldata space characters, and a normal return to the user is taken.
• I option
− SI field is assumed to be the output file.
− If the SO field is given, an error message is printed and the error return is taken.
− If the SI and SO fields are not given, the PARTBL internal file name for SI and SO
is set to 12 Fieldata space characters, and a normal return to the user is taken.
• U option
− If the SI field is not given, an error message is printed and the error return taken.
− If the SO field is given, an error message is printed and the error return taken.
− The U option implies that the next higher F-cycle of the SI file is to be produced.
The SI file must be a cataloged or temporary file. The SI (+1) file must be
assigned to the run. The name specified in the SI field cannot be a use name.
The error return is taken if PREPF$ receives a nonzero status code from a call to ER
CSF$.
