<h1 class="topictitle1">MSGCON (Message Constant) keyword for display files</h1>
|
||
|
|
<div><p>Use this field-level keyword to indicate the text for constant
|
||
|
|
fields is contained in a message description.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="section"><p>If the message description does
|
||
|
|
not exist at DDS compile time, the file will not be created. If you change
|
||
|
|
the message description, you need to create the file again if you want the
|
||
|
|
display file to contain the updated message.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="p">The format of the keyword
|
||
|
|
is: <pre>MSGCON(length message-ID [library-name/]message-file-name)</pre>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
<p>The
|
||
|
|
length parameter specifies the maximum length of the message description.
|
||
|
|
The length can be from 1 to 132 bytes. If the message description is less
|
||
|
|
than the length specified, the remaining bytes are padded with blanks (hex
|
||
|
|
40). If the message description is longer than the length specified, the message
|
||
|
|
description is truncated to the specified length and a warning message appears.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The
|
||
|
|
message-ID parameter specifies the message description that contains the text
|
||
|
|
to use as the value of the constant field.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The message-file-name parameter
|
||
|
|
identifies the message file that contains the message description. The library-name
|
||
|
|
parameter is optional.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The MSGCON keyword must be explicitly specified
|
||
|
|
for the field. The MSGCON keyword cannot be used to initialize a named field.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>The
|
||
|
|
DFT and MSGCON keywords are functionally equivalent. If you specify the DFT
|
||
|
|
and MSGCON keywords for the same field, the MSGCON keyword is ignored and
|
||
|
|
the file is not created.</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="p">The MSGCON keyword cannot be specified with
|
||
|
|
any of the following keywords: <p>DATE<br />
|
||
|
|
DFT<br />
|
||
|
|
EDTCDE<br />

<p>Option indicators are not valid for changing the value

of the message line, but they are valid for conditioning the presence or absence

of the message on the display.</p>
