Data Dictionary Entities Updated by Mapping Compilers

At map generation, the batch and online compilers update the dictionary by adding, modifying, or deleting map occurrences and load modules and by establishing links between maps and dictionary entities that the maps access. For example, a record is updated to reflect the use of that record by the map. While the map occurrence exists in the dictionary, the record cannot be deleted.

The mapping facility batch and online compilers establish and maintain map and panel occurrences by updating the following data dictionary records:

• MAP-098 occurrences represent map occurrences.
• MAPRCD-125 occurrences relate CA IDMS maps to a schema or work record that the map uses.
• MAPFLD-124 occurrences represent map field occurrences.
• PANELFLD-121 occurrences represent panel field occurrences.
• PFLD-DATA-147 occurrences are logical extensions of PANELFLD-121 occurrences that contain device-dependence tables for panel fields.
• PROG-051 occurrences represent maps as programs in the data dictionary; a flag in the record indicates that the record is a map.
• MODMAP-195 occurrences relate CA IDMS maps to edit and code tables and to modules containing help text.

These data dictionary records are shown in the following table along with the CA IDMS statements and operations that update each record in the data dictionary:
