HP SYSTEM DICTIONARY XL SDMAIN

DISPLAY ENTITY-TYPE 

Displays one or more entity types.

Syntax 

     DIS[PLAY] E[NTITY-]T[YPE] [entity-type-name]
             [;S[COPE-]O[WNER] = scope-owner-name]
             [;NAME[-ONLY]]
             [;NO[SORT]]
             .

Parameters 

entity-type-name      Name of the entity type to be displayed.

scope-owner-name      Owner of the entity type to be displayed.  If the
                      current scope does not have secure capability, any
                      qualification other than the current scope causes
                      no entity types to be retrieved.

NAME-ONLY             If specified, only the name of the qualifying
                      entity type is displayed.  If not specified, the
                      name, owner, and attribute list are displayed.

NOSORT                Reports on the entity types in the unsorted order
                      in which they are retrieved from the dictionary.
                      Otherwise, the entity types are sorted
                      alphabetically by the entity type name.

Description 

When sorting is not required, the use of the NOSORT keyword speeds
processing time.

If the scope does not have secure capability, and the current scope is
not the owner, then the scope owner is not displayed.

Open Mode:       Any

Scope:           Any
