Option 01: Replace a File Control ID

This section of the demo session details how to replace a File Control ID. The demo program PLIDEMO is attempting to read and display a record, but the file name specified in the program is incorrect, possibly because it was misspelled.

Important! Before proceeding, be sure you have completed the steps outlined in the Demo Preliminaries section, and that you have the CA InterTest for CICS Demo Session Options Menu displayed on your screen.

1. Select option 01 and press Enter.

   The demo program displays the following screen, which describes what occurs in this part of the demo session.

       ****                 CA InterTest Demo Session                    ****      
       ****                Replace File Control ID Option                ****      
       ****                                                              ****      
       **********************************************************************      
                                                                                   
       The program attempts to read file PROTH. Because the file name has been     
       incorrectly specified, this would cause a DSIDERR condition which would     
       result in an AEIL abend. Instead, here is what will happen:                 
                                                                                   
       1. CA InterTest halts the program at an automatic breakpoint.             
       2. You set the Replace File Control option to change the file name          
          without recompiling.                                                   
       3. You re‑execute the program from the point at which it first tried        
          to read the file.                                                      
                                                                                   
                                                                                   
       When this section of the demo completes, you will return to the             
       Options Menu.                                                             
                                                                                   
                 Press ENTER to continue or CLEAR to terminate
   

2. Press Enter.

   CA InterTest for CICS halts the demo program at an automatic breakpoint.
