MPE Segmenter Reference Manual

-USE 

Activates one or more program unit (Relocatable Binary Module) entry
points in the User Subprogram Library currently designated for
management.  Note that, in the order the parameters are listed below
(ENTRY, UNIT, SEGMENT), the control given you by the USE parameters
becomes less specific.  If you want control over a single entry point,
use the most specific and limited parameter, ENTRY. (You will probably
also use the optional index whenever you use this specific parameter.)
Either of the other two parameters would activate all entry points within
an RBM or a segment, including some you might want to leave inactive.

SYNTAX 

          [ENTRY,  ]
     -USE [UNIT,   ] name[(index)]
          [SEGMENT,]

PARAMETERS 

ENTRY            Activates the entry point indicated by name [(index)].

UNIT             Activates all entry points in the RBM indicated by name 
                 [(index)].

SEGMENT          Activates all entry points in all RBMs associated with
                 the segment name. 

                 The default value is ENTRY.

name             The name of the entry point if ENTRY is specified, or
                 the name of the RBM if UNIT is specified, or the name of
                 the segment if SEGMENT is specified.

index            An integer further identifying the entry point name.
                 The index may be used when the USL file contains more
                 than one entry point of the same name.  If SEGMENT is
                 specified, the index parameter is ignored.

                 If index is omitted, a default value of 0 (the most
                 recent inactive occurrence) is assigned.  An index n 
                 means the nth occurrence, whether active or inactive.
                 However, there is no point in using this command with an
                 entry point you know to be active, since its purpose is
                 to activate inactive entry points.

EXAMPLE 

-USE UNIT,RB20   Activates all entry points in the RBM named RB20.
