Accesses Record and Element Definitions

The CA ADS Application Compiler accesses record and element definitions stored in the dictionary. ADSA supplies the dictionary with the application definition; the updated Task Activity Table (TAT), the DC/UCF load module that associates task codes and the invoked tasks; and the Application Definition Block (ADB), the application load module. The CA ADS Dialog Compiler (ADSC) accesses record, element, subschema, map, and source process definitions stored in the dictionary. ADSC supplies the dictionary with the dialog definition and with the Fixed Dialog Block (FDB), the dialog load module. When the application is executed, the CA ADS runtime system accesses the application, dialog, map, subschema, and edit and code table load modules stored in the dictionary.
