INCLUDE IDMS (SUBSCHEMA_BINDS)

INCLUDE IDMS (SUBSCHEMA_BINDS):

• Initializes the PROGRAM_NAME field in the IDMS DB communications block
• Copies a standard BIND RUN_UNIT statement and appropriate standard BIND RECORD commands for each CA IDMS/DB record in your program's variable storage.

This statement does not generate BIND RECORD statements for logical records. Your program does not need them. INCLUDE IDMS (SUBSCHEMA_BINDS) only generates BINDS for subschema records explicitly copied into your program by INCLUDE IDMS statements.

Do not use the INCLUDE IDMS (SUBSCHEMA_BINDS) statement when binding several records to the same location. Instead, code BIND RUN_UNIT and BIND RECORD statements separately for each record. This allows you to include a CALL IDMS_STATUS statement after each BIND RECORD statement to check the ERROR_STATUS field.

Note: The INCLUDE IDMS (SUBSCHEMA_BINDS) statement does not automatically generate BIND RECORD statements when more than one copy of a given database record description (including synonyms) is present in the program. For such records, issue individual BIND RECORD statements to bind the records to the correct location.
