Where can Verbs be Used?
The compiler provides the verbs ADD, MODIFY, and DELETE that specify the action the map compiler should perform on the accompanying mapping source statements. Each verb can be specified for any of the following statements in the CA IDMS mapping language syntax:
This Statement |
Generates... |
---|---|
MAP AUTOPANEL |
Map and panel occurrences |
MFLD |
(MAP AUTOPANEL only) Map field and panel field occurrences |
PFLD |

MFLD |
Map field occurrences |
Note: For more information about the previous mapping language statements, see "Batch Compiler Statements".
