System Standard Procedures and Definitions
2.3. PROC$–System Procedures
PROC$ is an element that contains the following assembler procedures (PROC). Refer
to the designated section of this manual or to the other manuals listed below for
instructions on how to use these procedures. Only those PROCs that are not described
elsewhere in this document are listed.
• Collector segment loading PROCs. See the Collector Programming Reference
Manual. (L$OAD, D$REL, D$LOAD)
• Procedures that generate calls to the PMD dynamic dump routines (X$MARK,
X$BACK, X$BUFR, X$SIZE, X$IF, X$OR, X$AND, X$LST, X$TALY, X$FRMT,
X$MESG, X$CREG, X$DUMP, X$CORE, X$DRUM, X$TAPE, X$FILE, X$CW, X$ON,
X$OFF). See the PMD Programming Reference Manual.
• Procedures, ASCII and FIELDATA, used with the Meta-Assembler (MASM) to
change the radix for generating character data.
• Procedure A$SCTRL to define mnemonics for the ASCII control characters
corresponding to octal codes 0 through 37 and 177. See the ER Programming
Quick-Reference Guide.
• J$REG PROC to aid loading J-registers in character addressing mode. See the AIM
Programming Reference Manual.
• I$BJ and D$BJ PROC calls to generate IBJ$ (DBJ$) calling sequences used by the
Collector in bank switching. See the Collector Programming Reference Manual.
• U$C function to uppercase ASCII character string. For example
P$ $PROC
U$C
TYPE $EQU U$C(P$(0,1) . Get type in uppercase ASCII
$IF TYPE='A'
...
$ENDF
$END
2.4. SSTYP$–Element Subtypes
SSTYP$ is a nonexecutable relocatable element consisting of a table of standard
symbolic and omnibus element subtype names and their associated values. It has a
single external definition, SSTYP$. SSTYP$ is the address of a word that contains the
length of the table. The table begins at SSTYP$ + 1.
The element subtype number is used to index into the SSTYP$ table to obtain the
corresponding Fieldata name. For example, the octal value for an element subtype of
'PLS' (PLUS) is 015. The word at address SSTYP$+16 contains the Fieldata characters
'PLS∆∆∆'.
