<h1 class="topictitle1">Override display files in a CL procedure</h1>
|
|
<div><p>You can use the <span class="cmdname">Override with Display File (OVRDSPF)</span> command
|
|
to replace the display file named in a CL procedure or program or to change
|
|
certain parameters of the existing display file. This may be especially useful
|
|
for files that have been renamed or moved since the module or program was
|
|
compiled.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"> <p>The initial parameters of the <span class="cmdname">Override with Display
|
|
File (OVRDSPF)</span> command are: </p>
|
|
<pre>OVRDSPF FILE(overridden-file-name) TOFILE(new-file-name)
|
|
DEV(device-name)</pre>
|
|
<p>The <span class="cmdname">Override with Display File (OVRDSPF)</span> command
|
|
is valid for a file referred to by a CL procedure or program only if the file
|
|
specified on the DCLF command was a display file when the module or program
|
|
was created. The file used when the program is run must be of the same type
|
|
as the file referred to when the module or program was created.</p>
|
|
<p>You
|
|
must run the <span class="cmdname">Override with Display File (OVRDSPF)</span> command
|
|
before opening the file that is being overridden. An open is caused by the
|
|
first use of a send or receive command. The system overrides the file on finding
|
|
any of the following conditions: </p>
|
|
<ul><li>A procedure or program that contains the <span class="cmdname">Override with Display
|
|
File (OVRDSPF)</span> command opens the file.</li>
|
|
<li>The file opens in another procedure which transfers control by using the
|
|
CALLPRC command.</li>
|
|
<li>The file opens in another program which transfers control by using the
|
|
CALL command.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>When you override to a different file, only those record format names
|
|
referred to on the <span class="cmdname">Send File (SNDF)</span>, <span class="cmdname">Receive File
|
|
(RCVF)</span>, or <span class="cmdname">Send/Receive File (SNDRCVF)</span> command
|
|
need to be in the overriding file. In the following illustration, display
|
|
file FILEY does not need record format TWO or THREE.</p>
|
|
<br /><img src="rbafn531.gif" alt="In this illustration, display file FILEY does not need record format TWO or THREE. When you override to a different file, only those record format names referred to on the SNDF, RCVF, or SNDRCVF command need to be in the overriding file." /><br /> <p>You should make sure that
|
|
the record format referred to names of the original file and the overriding
|
|
files have the same field definitions and indicator names in the same order.
|
|
You may get unexpected results if you specify LVLCHK(*NO).</p>
|
|
<p>Another
|
|
consideration has to do with the DEV parameter on the <span class="cmdname">Send File (SNDF)</span>, <span class="cmdname">Receive
|
|
File (RCVF)</span>, and <span class="cmdname">Send/Receive File (SNDRCVF)</span> commands
|
|
when an <span class="cmdname">Override with Display File (OVRDSPF)</span> command is
|
|
applied. If *FILE is specified on the DEV parameter of the <span class="cmdname">Receive
|
|
File (RCVF)</span>, <span class="cmdname">Send File (SNDF)</span>, or <span class="cmdname">Send/Receive
|
|
File (SNDRCVF)</span> command, the system automatically directs the operation
|
|
to the correct device for the overridden file. If a specific device is specified
|
|
on the DEV keyword of the RCVF, SNDF, or SNDRCVF command, one of the following
|
|
may occur: </p>
|
|
<ul><li>If a single device display file is being used, an error will occur if
|
|
the display file is overridden to a device other than the one specified on
|
|
the <span class="cmdname">Receive File (RCVF)</span>, <span class="cmdname">Send File (SNDF)</span>,
|
|
or <span class="cmdname">Send/Receive File (SNDRCVF)</span> command.</li>
|
|
<li>If a multiple device display file is being used, an error will occur if
|
|
the device specified on the <span class="cmdname">Receive File (RCVF)</span>, <span class="cmdname">Send
|
|
File (SNDF)</span>, or <span class="cmdname">Send/Receive File (SNDRCVF)</span> command
|
|
is not among those specified on the <span class="cmdname">Override with Display File (OVRDSPF)</span> command.</li>
|
|
</ul>
