IMBS customizing macro

Describes the DBOMP files and the equivalent CA IDMS/DB database. The IMBS macro generates IMBSTAB.

IMBSTAB

Contains (in tabular format) the data that the bridge program uses to convert CA IDMS/DB records to DBOMP records.

IMBSPROC database procedure

Moves pointers from the subschema table into a CA IDMS/DB dummy record.

IMBSBRDG program module

Simulates DBOMP records and processing using IMBSTAB, IMBSPROC, IMBSEQ (or equivalent COBOL or PL/I macros), and CA IDMS/DB.

IMBSEQ macro

Supports the DBOMP GE$T, PU$T, ST$KY, and ST$DA macros in Assembler programs and replaces the MF$SQ, FI$LE, and CF$RT macros.

For more information on equivalent PL/I and COBOL macros, see PL/I Considerations and see COBOL Considerations.
