Obsolete Entry Points, PROCs, and Routines
IDBUFF
The processor must supply a buffer with an externally defined label, IDBUFF. Before
calling IDLINE$ or IDONLY$, this buffer must be initialized with the name/level field (up
to 12 characters) left-justified and the remainder of the buffer blank-filled. This buffer
must be at least six words long and up to eight, depending on the name/level length and
whether or not cycle information is requested.
The minimum IDBUFF length required is shown in Table J–1.
Table J–1. IDLINE$, IDONLY$: IDBUFF
Length
Routine Called Name and Level Length
1 Word 2 Words
IDLINE$,IDTIME$ 7 8
IDONLY$,IDTOME$ 6 7
A processor name and level greater than 12 characters may be used by defining the start
of IDBUFF as the word following the name and level. It may also be used if no more
than the last 12 characters are included within IDBUFF.
J.5.1. IDLINE$
There are two entry points to the IDLINE$ routine: IDLINE$ and IDTIME$.
J.5.1.1. IDLINE$
IDLINE$ generates the complete ID line, including symbolic element cycle information.
The element cycle information is taken from PARTBL, which is filled in by either the
SYSLIB routine PREPRM or PREPRO. The call on PREPRM or PREPRO must precede
the call on IDLINE$ or IDTIME$.
