CA IDMS DLI Transparency Syntax Generator › Preparing Syntax Generator Input

Preparing Syntax Generator Input

The syntax generator analyzes the DBD control blocks to produce schema, DMCL, and subschema source statements. It analyzes one PSB control block to produce a set of IPSB source statements.

You must assemble the DBDs and the PSB using the macros supplied with CA IDMS DLI Transparency. You must then link edit the resulting assemblies to populate a new load library that contains a load module for each DBD and a load module for the PSB. The load library must be available to the syntax generator when you run it. Be sure to keep your DL/I and CA IDMS DLI Transparency load libraries separate.

When you execute the syntax generator, it will attempt to load the PSB and all referenced DBDs. Since it can be difficult to keep track of all the DBD dependencies, you may find that the easiest course is simply to assemble and link edit all of your DBDs.
