Creating and Managing Your Model › Creating a CA 2E Design Model › Model Library Name

Model Library Name

The model library contains the CA 2E design model and application design.

You define the name of the model library with the MDLLIB parameter. You must include this parameter when you execute YCRTMDLLIB.

Select the name for the model carefully. Other parameters, such as GENLIB and SQLLIB, default to options that allow CA 2E to build the names for libraries from the prefix of the model library.

Use the following conventions:

• Begin the model library name with an identifying prefix of up to seven characters.
• Follow the prefix with the characters "MDL."

Identifying prefixes might include the owner of the model, the application, or application level. For example, you might use INVMDL for an inventory model.
