You can modify certain environmental characteristics of dataviews without changing the dictionary file model, recataloging, and recompiling.
Under VSE, when an application program is compiled, the dataviews specified as resources are compiled into the object code, including the block size and device type. To change the block size or device type, use the ALTER PROGRAM command. This permanently alters the record length, block size, or device type.
To temporarily alter the block size, device type, or logical unit assignment for any subsequent runs in the current session, use the ASSIGN DATAVIEW command.
The RESET DATAVIEW command can reassign an assigned dataview to the database it referenced when the program was compiled. This command resets the database ID, block size, device type, and logical unit assignment.
For more information about description and syntax of the commands, see the Command Reference Guide.
