Using the Filter Specification

The Filter specification lets you limit the type of model objects displayed; it does not affect which objects are included in the expansion. You can specify this before beginning the expansion or afterward to help you analyze the results of the expansion.

Following are the possible values for Filter:

Value

Meaning

*ANY

Select all types of model objects; no filtering is done. This is the default.

*DBFFUN

Select only database functions.

*ERR

Select only error usages; i.e., usages by deleted objects.

*EXTFUN

Select only external functions.

*GENFUN

Select only generatable functions.

*GENOBJ

Select only generatable objects; for example, access paths and external functions.

*INTFUN

Select only internal functions.

Object type

Select only model objects of the specified type; for example, *ACP, *FUN.
