Section 25
SOR–Symbolic Output Routine
The Symbolic Output Routine (SOR) writes symbolic images produced by a processor
into a program file as a symbolic element. The symbolic element produced by SOR is
suitable for input to another processor by SIR$.
The symbolic output produced by SOR should not be confused with the symbolic output
produced by SIR$, described in Section 23. The symbolic output produced by SIR$ is
based on the source input (SI) file or element, as modified by optional runstream
corrections. The symbolic output produced by SOR is independent of the SIR$ symbolic
output and is completely under control of the calling processor. SOR would normally be
used by a processor that produces symbolic output rather than relocatable, omnibus,
absolute, or object module output.
The calling program must supply a 40-word PARTBL that is zero filled. The name
PARTBL must be externally defined. See Figure 14–1 for PARTBL description. For
symbolic output, SOR uses words 27 through 39 of PARTBL, the table item normally
used for relocatable output.
The calling program must insert the following information in PARTBL before calling SOR.
The PREPRO routine can be used to enter the information from the second field
(relocatable output) of the processor call statement to PARTBL.
PARTBL+27,+28 Internal file name
PARTBL+29,+30 Element name
PARTBL+33,+34 Version name
