<div><p>The <span class="keyword">iSeries™</span> integrated
|
||
|
|
database provides file attribute and cross-reference information.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="p">Some of the cross-reference information include: <ul><li>The files used in a program</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The files that depend on other files for data or access paths</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>File attributes</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The fields defined for a file</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Constraints associated with a file</li>
|

|
|
<li>Key fields for a file</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|

</div>
|

<p>Each of the commands described in these topics can present information
|
||
|
|
on a display, a printout, or write the cross-reference information to a database
|
||
|
|
file that, in turn, can be used by a program or utility (for example, Query)
|
||
|
|
for analysis.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p></p>
|
||
|
|
<p>You can retrieve information about a member of a database file for use
|
||
|
|
in your applications with the Retrieve Member Description (RTVMBRD) command.</p>

You can display the file attributes for database files and device

You can store the output from many control language (CL) commands in an output physical file by specifying the OUTFILE parameter on the commands. You can then use the output files in programs or utilities (for example, Query) for data analysis.</li>
