<h1 class="topictitle1">Create an object from source statements in a batch job</h1>
<div><p>If your create command is contained in a batch job, you can use
an inline data file as the source file for the command.</p>
<p>However, inline data files used as a source file should not exceed 10,000
records. The inline data file can be either named or unnamed. Named inline
data files have a unique file name that is specified on the //DATA command.
For more information about inline data files, see the Database file management
topic.</p>
<div class="p">Unnamed inline data files are files without unique file names; they are
all named QINLINE. The following is an example of an inline data file used
as a source file: <pre>//BCHJOB
CRTPF FILE(DSTPRODLB/ORD199) SRCFILE(QINLINE)
//DATA FILETYPE(*SRC)
.
. (source statements)
.
//
//ENDBCHJOB</pre>
</div>
<p>In this example, no file name was specified on the //DATA command. An unnamed
spooled file was created when the job was processed by the spooling reader.
The CRTPF command must specify QINLINE as the source file name to access the
unnamed file. The //DATA command also specifies that the inline file is a
source file (*SRC specified for the FILETYPE parameter).</p>
<div class="p">If you specify a file name on the //DATA command, you must specify the
same name on the SRCFILE parameter on the CRTPF command. For example: <pre>//BCHJOB
CRTPF FILE(DSTPRODLB/ORD199) SRCFILE(ORD199)
//DATA FILE(ORD199) FILETYPE(*SRC)
.
. (source statements)
.
//
//ENDBCHJOB</pre>
</div>
<p>If a program uses an inline file, the system searches for the first inline
file of the specified name. If that file cannot be found, the program uses
the first file that is unnamed (QINLINE).</p>
<p>If you do not specify a source file name on a create command, an IBM-supplied
source file is assumed to contain the needed source data. For example, if
you are creating a control language (CL) program but you did not specify a
source file name, the IBM-supplied source file QCLSRC is used. You must have
placed the source data in QCLSRC.</p>
<p>If a source file is a database file, you can specify a source member that
contains the needed source data. If you do not specify a source member, the
source data must be in a member that has the same name as the object being
created.</p>
