<h5 id="rzaluovrprtfatt">Override file attributes</h5>
<p>The simplest form of overriding a file is to override some attributes of
the file. For example, assume that you create a printer file named OUTPUT
with these attributes:</p>
<ul>
<li>Page size: 66 by 132</li>
<li>Lines per inch: 6</li>
<li>Copies of printed output: 2</li>
<li>Pages for file separators: 2</li>
<li>Overflow line number: 55</li></ul>
<p>The Create Printer File (CRTPRTF) command used to create this file looks
like this:</p>
<p></p>
<pre class="xmp">CRTPRTF FILE(QGPL/OUTPUT) SPOOL(*YES)
PAGESIZE(66 132) LPI(6)
COPIES(2) FILESEP(2) OVRFLW(55)</pre>
<p>The printer file named OUTPUT is specified in your application program
with an overflow line number of 58. However, before you run the application
program, you want to change the number of copies of printed output to 3 and
the overflow line to 60. The override command looks like this:</p>
<p></p>
<pre class="xmp">OVRPRTF FILE(OUTPUT) COPIES(3) OVRFLW(60)</pre>
<p>When you call the application program, three copies of the output are printed.</p>
<p>When the application program opens the file, the file overrides, program-specified
attributes, and file attributes are merged to form the open data path (ODP),
which is used to manage the file during the running of the program. File overrides
have precedence over program-specified attributes. Program-specified attributes
have precedence over file-specified attributes. In this example, when the
file is opened and output operations are performed, spooled output will be
produced with a page size of 66 by 132, six lines per inch, three copies,
two file separator pages, and overflow at 60 lines.</p>
