Enhancements
filecode The filecode parameter specifies a particular kind
of file. This code is recorded in the file label
and is available to processes accessing the file
through the FFILEINFO or FGETINFO intrinsics.
Although you can specify a positive integer ranging
from 0 to 32767 or a mnemonic name for filecode,
certain reserved integers and mnemonics have
particular system-defined meanings. The native
mode spooler file codes are the following:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Integer Mnemonic Meaning |
| |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| 1515 INSP input spool file |
| |
| 1516 OUTSP output spool file |
| |
| 1517 CHKSP output spool file checkpoint |
| file |
| |
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SPOOL SPOOL specifies an output spool file that is not
linked to the spool file directory (SPFDIR) and,
therefore, is not printed automatically. No
spooling attributes are initialized.
If the output spool file is ever linked to the
SPFDIR by using the SPOOLF...;PRINT command, all
attributes are set at that time according to the
rules of the command. Spool Files cannot be
temporary files. If you specify the ;SPOOL
keyword, a file code of 1516 (output spool file) is
forced.
