RCVCONFIRM (Receive Confirm) keyword for ICF files

Use this file- or record-level keyword to set on a response indicator if the data received by your program contains a confirmation request from the remote program.

The format of the keyword is:
RCVCONFIRM(response-indicator ['text'])

The response-indicator parameter is required.

The optional text is included on the computer printout created at program compilation time to explain the intended use of the indicator. The text has no function in the file or the program other than as a comment. The single quotation marks are required. If you specify more than 50 characters between the single quotation marks, the text is truncated to 50 characters on the program computer printout.

You cannot specify RCVCONFIRM with the TIMER keyword.

Option indicators are not valid for this keyword.

Example

The following example shows how to specify the RCVCONFIRM keyword.

|...+....1....+....2....+....3....+....4....+....5....+....6....+....7....+....8
00010A                                      RCVCONFIRM(44 'Waiting for a +
00020A                                      response')
00030A          R RCD
     A

Response indicator 44 is set on to indicate receipt of the confirmation request from the remote program.
