Job Control Word Commands
Several MPE XL commands are available that allow you to set, alter, or
display JCWs. These are:
:SETJCW
This command adds a JCW to the variable table, or alters the value of an
existing variable. The value must fall within the valid range for a JCW,
that is, in the range 0 through 65535.
Command syntax is as follows:
:SETJCW jcwname delimiter [+ or -] value
The jcwname parameter can contain the name of a new or existing
user-defined or system-defined JCW. You can use @ to specify all
currently defined JCWs.
The delimiter can be one or more punctuation characters or spaces, except
for % or -. The value parameter must be one of the following:
1. An octal number between 0 and %177777.
2. A decimal number between 0 and 65,535.
3. An MPE XL-defined JCW value mnemonic, or an offset value of a
mnemonic.
4. The name of an existing JCW.
:SHOWJCW
This command displays the specified JCW or JCWs in the variable table.
:SHOWJCW, entered without parameters, displays all user-defined and
system-defined JCWs currently in effect. The optional parameter jcwname
must be the name of a valid JCW.
For more information and full syntax descriptions for the above commands,
refer to the MPE XL Commands Reference Manual (32650-90003).
NOTE There is no DELETE intrinsic or command that applies specifically
to Job Control Words. Since a JCW is a type of variable, you can
use the HPCIDELETEVAR intrinsic or the :DELETEVAR command to delete
it.
