RENAME Function

RENAME renames a member in the VLS library.

Caution Do not use the RENAME function unless directed by CA Technical Support.

RENAME

Specifies the RENAME function.

memname1

Current name of the member. For instructions to format the member name, see HEX Function.

memname2

Specifies the new name of the member. This name must be unique. If a member with the new name already exists in the VLS library, the operation is suppressed and an error message is generated.

Using the RENAME function of VLSUTIL requires the use of two RENAME commands because you cannot fit the old and new member names in the 80-character line limit.

Example

To rename the procedure (L), working data (W), and parameter (P) members of a program called ABCDEF in system $ID that is currently in version 17 to version 1, specify:

HEX /
RENAME $IDABCDEF/404040404040404040/017L,TEMP1
RENAME TEMP1, $IDABCDEF/404040404040404040/001L
RENAME $IDABCDEF/404040404040404040/017W,TEMP2
RENAME TEMP2, $IDABCDEF/404040404040404040/001W
RENAME $IDABCDEF/404040404040404040/017P,TEMP3
RENAME TEMP3, $IDABCDEF/404040404040404040/001P
