<h1 class="topictitle1">Use generic object names</h1>
|
|
<div><p>A generic search can be used to search for more than one object.</p>
|
|
<div class="section"> <p>Sometimes you may want to search for more than one object (even
|
|
though only one might be found) when the object names start with the same
|
|
characters. This type of search is called a <em>generic search</em> and can
|
|
be used on several commands.</p>
|
|
<p>To use a generic search, specify a generic
|
|
name in place of the object name on the command. A generic name consists of
|
|
a set of characters common to all the object names that identifies a group
|
|
of objects and ends with an * (asterisk). All objects whose names begin with
|
|
the specified characters and to which you are authorized have the requested
|
|
function performed on them. For example, if you entered the <span class="cmdname">Display
|
|
Object Description (DSPOBJD)</span> command using the generic name ORD*,
|
|
object descriptions for the objects beginning with ORD are shown.</p>
|
|
<p>A
|
|
generic search can be limited by the following library qualifiers on the generic
|
|
name (the library name parameter value is given in parentheses, if applicable):
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul><li>A specified library. The operation you requested is performed on the generically
|
|
named objects in the specified library only.</li>
|
|
<li>The library list for the job (*LIBL). The libraries are searched in the
|
|
order they are listed in the library list. The operation you requested is
|
|
performed on the generically named objects in the libraries specified in the
|
|
library list for the job.</li>
|
|
<li>The current library for the job (*CURLIB). The current library for the
|
|
job is searched. If no current library exists, QGPL is used.</li>
|
|
<li>All libraries in the user part of the library list for the job (*USRLIBL).
|
|
The libraries are searched in the order they are listed in the library list,
|
|
including the current library (*CURLIB). The operation you requested is performed
|
|
on the generically named objects in the libraries specified in the user portion
|
|
of the library list for the job.</li>
|
|
<li>All user libraries for which you are authorized (*ALLUSR) and libraries
|
|
beginning with the letter Q.</li>
|
|
<li>The libraries are searched in alphanumeric order. The following S/36 environment
|
|
libraries that begin with # are not searched with *ALLUSR specified: #CGULIB,
|
|
#COBLIB, #DFULIB, #DSULIB, #RPGLIB, #SDALIB, and #SEULIB. The operation you
|
|
requested is performed on the generically named objects in all the user libraries
|
|
for which you are authorized.</li>
|
|
<li>All libraries on the system for which you are authorized (*ALL). The libraries
|
|
are searched in alphanumeric order. The operation you requested is performed
|
|
on the generically named objects in all the libraries on the system for which
|
|
you are authorized.</li>
