CA IDMS Online Compilers

Exiting from the Online Compilers

The online schema, subschema, and system generation compilers and the online command facility are separate development tools. You can have one suspended session of each of these compilers at a given time. For example, if you have a suspended schema compiler session, you can resume but not start a new schema compiler session. You can start a new subschema or system generation compiler session.

The online schema, subschema, and system generation compilers and the online command facility use the same screen format as online IDD (the online DDDL compiler). Commands used to exit from an online compiler session can be entered in the command line of any online compiler screen. The command line is highlighted on the following sample online schema compiler screen.

switch tcf SCHEMA nn.n NO ERRORS      DICT=DEMO      1/1796
DISPLAY SCHEMA EMPSCHM VERSION 100.

When you exit from an online compiler, TCF suspends or terminates your online compiler session and transfers control, as described in the following table. The contents of each suspended online compiler session are kept in a scratch record and saved until you sign off from the DC/UCF system.

Note: Do not use SUSPEND to exit the schema or subschema compilers if you are using the Automatic System Facility (ASF) in the same online session. In this case, use END or the signoff command.

Transferring from the Online Compilers

The way your current online compiler session ends and TCF transfers control on exit depends on the exit method you use, as described in the following table.
