Field Descriptions

A description of the fields in the sample report follows:

SYSTEM VERSION

Identifies the system associated with these CA ADS parameters.

AUTO DIALOG

Identifies the mainline dialog that is executed immediately at run time (the mainline dialog menu screen is bypassed).

PRIMARY TASK CODE

Identifies the task code entered by the user to initiate the CA ADS runtime system. This task code must invoke the program ADSORUN1; the default is ADS.

SECONDARY TASK CODE

Identifies the task code that invokes the program ADSOMAIN; the default is ADS2TASK.

TCF TASK CODE

Identifies the task code that invokes the program ADSOMAIN while running under the transfer control facility (TCF). The default is ADS2T.

MAXIMUM LINKS

Identifies the maximum number of dialog levels that can be defined by each respective CA ADS application thread. The default is 10.

MENU IS

Identifies which dialog names will be displayed on the CA ADS menu. USER (default) indicates that only those mainline dialog names for which the current user is authorized will be displayed; ALL indicates that all mainline dialog names known to the DC/UCF system will be displayed.

PRIMARY POOL

Indicates the size of the primary record buffer. The default is 4000.

SECONDARY POOL

Indicates the size of the secondary pool to be allocated from DC storage when the primary pool is full. The default is 2000.

BUILDER CODE

Identifies the builder code for the record that defines the CA ADS parameters. For a description of builder codes, see Builder Codes table at the end of this chapter.

ACTION CODE

Indicates whether the record that defines the CA ADS parameters has been updated (U) or deleted (D). Blank indicates that the CA ADS parameters have not been updated since the last time the system was generated.

ACTIV LOG

Indicates whether the activity log for the database commands in a dialog is on (YES) or off (NO).

DIAGNOSTIC SCREEN

Indicates whether CA ADS bypasses display of the Dialog Abort Information screen when the runtime system abends a dialog. YES indicates that the diagnostic screen will not be displayed; NO indicates that the screen will be displayed.

NEWPAGE MAPOUT

Indicates how a mapout is performed when a dialog's map is already displayed as the result of a previous mapout. NO indicates that CA ADS will transmit only the map's data fields and message field; YES indicates that CA ADS will always perform a new page mapout.

RESOURCES ARE

Specifies whether information from the CA ADS Terminal Block (OTB) and the variable dialog block (VDB) in the storage pool will be written to the scratch area (DDLDCSCR) across a pseudo-converse.

FIXED indicates that the storage is not relocatable; the buffer pools remain in the storage pool provided that the fast mode threshold has not been exceeded. RELOCATABLE indicates that the storage is relocatable; the buffer pools are written to scratch across a pseudo-converse and the storage is freed.

AUTOSTATUS ENABLED

Indicates whether (YES) or not (NO) the AUTOSTATUS setting for dialog generation sessions is enabled.

AUTOSTATUS OPT/MAND

Indicates whether (OPTIONAL) or not (MANDATORY) the application developer is allowed to override the default AUTOSTATUS setting during dialog generation.

COBOL MOVE ENABLED

Indicates how CA ADS moves the result of an arithmetic or assignment command into the target field. YES instructs CA ADS to use COBOL rules; NO instructs CA ADS to use CA ADS rules.

COBOL MOVE OPT/MAND

Indicates whether (OPTIONAL) or not (MANDATORY) the application developer is allowed to change the COBOL MOVE setting on a dialog-by-dialog basis.

DIALOG STATISTICS ON/OFF

Indicates whether (YES) or not (NO) dialog statistics are collected for CA ADS dialogs.

DIALOG STATISTICS SEL/ALL

Indicates whether statistics are collected for dialogs on a dialog-by-dialog basis (SELECTED) or for all dialogs (ALL).

DIALOG STATISTICS INTERVAL

Specifies the interval at which dialog statistics are written to the log file after being accumulated the indicated number of times. 0 indicates that statistics are written to the log file after an application terminates.

RECORD COMPRESSION

Indicates whether (YES) or not (NO) record buffer blocks (RBBs) are compressed across a pseudo-converse when they are retained in the storage pool.

STORAGE MODE

Indicates how storage for record buffer blocks (RBBs) is to be allocated. SGENSIZE uses the buffer sizes specified in the PRIMARY POOL and SECONDARY POOL parameters of the ADSO system generation statement; CALCULATED uses the calculated size of the RBBs for an application or dialog when allocating storage.

FAST MODE THRESHOLD / INTERVAL

Indicates whether (ON) or not (OFF) the CA ADS runtime system writes record buffer blocks (RBBs) and statistics control blocks to scratch across a pseudo-converse. INTERVAL specifies the size of the fast mode threshold.

STATUS DEFINITION RECORD

Specifies the name and version of the status definition record and whether (OPTIONAL) or not (MANDATORY) the application developer is allowed by override the default status definition record specification during dialog generation.
