If you specify a destination when you exit a tool, TCF transfers you to the requested location. You can request transfer to another development tool under TCF, the Selection Screen and DC/UCF.
If you do not specify a destination when you exit a tool, TCF transfers you to the most recently suspended development tool session. If you have no suspended sessions, TCF transfers you to the DC/UCF system.
You remain under TCF when you exit from a development tool session unless you explicitly request exit from TCF or you have no suspended TCF sessions. For more information about the transfer of control from a specific development tool, see the discussion of that development tool in Development Tools under TCF.
The current development tool session can be either suspended or terminated when you exit from the tool session.
If the development tool session is suspended, the current definition or report is saved.
For example, if you are using ADSC to define a dialog and need to use IDD to verify the name of a process module, you can suspend the current ADSC session to transfer to IDD. You can then resume the ADSC session when you are finished using IDD.
When you suspend a development tool session under TCF, an identifier for the session is added to the end of your list of suspended sessions. The identifier for the suspended development tool session remains in your list until you either resume the suspended session or request that your list be cleared on exit from TCF (as described next in Exiting from TCF).
You can view your list of suspended sessions at any time by transferring to the Selection Screen. For example, if you have forgotten the name of one of your suspended dialog definitions, you could transfer to the Selection screen and look at your list of suspended sessions. You also can resume any of the listed sessions by selecting the session from your list on the Selection Screen. For more information about the Selection Screen and your list of suspended sessions, see TCF Selection Screen chapter.
If the development tool session is terminated, the current definition or report is cleared.
For example, you can terminate your current IDD session on exit if you are finished using IDD to verify information.
