CA Dynam for VSE User Guide

General Reporting−DYNPRINT
• Spaces, equal signs, and commas are interchangeable delimiters. A value
that contains any of these delimiters must be enclosed in single quotation
marks (').
• Each keyword or value must be wholly contained on one line do not split
an individual keyword, or a value, between lines.
Syntax analysis is performed on all DYNPRINT statements before any
statements are processed. If no serious syntax errors are detected, each
statement is processed in the order in which it was submitted. If any serious
error is found, processing terminates.
ACCESS Command
The ACCESS command defines the data source for the report. It selects the
access method, such as DYNACC or VTOCAC.
The format of the command is shown below.
ACCESS {CATALOG|VTOC }
Note: CATALOG and VTOC are mutually exclusive parameters.
CATALOG
VTOC
requests that DYNACC access the CA Dynam Catalog.
chooses VTOCAC for access to disk VTOCs.
By default, DYNPRINT accesses the Catalog. If a VTOC-based report is
required, insert an ACCESS VTOC statement prior to the first VTOC-based
REPORT statement. If subsequent CATALOG reports are required, insert an
ACCESS CATALOG statement following the last VTOC-based REPORT
statement.
REPORT and COMPILE Commands
Use the REPORT or COMPILE command to select the operation to be
performed:
REPORT invokes a precompiled report program. This may be a standard report
or a previously compiled and saved custom report.
COMPILE invokes the CA Earl compiler to process the CA Earl source
statements which immediately follow DYNPRINT control statements.
Depending on the CA Earl compilation options specified, if free from serious
errors, the output may be saved and cataloged or immediately executed. If
immediately executed, the effect of all options specified on the COMPILE
statement is the same as if they had been specified on a REPORT statement.
