MPE/iX Commands Reference Manual Volume I
PASXLLK
Compiles and links an HP Pascal/iX program. HP Pascal/iX is not part of
the 900 Series HP 3000 Computer System Fundamental Operating Software and
must be purchased separately. (Native Mode)
Syntax
PASXLLK [textfile][,[progfile][,[listfile][,libfile]]]
[;INFO=quotedstring]
Parameters
textfile The name of the text file that contains the source
code to be compiled. This is an ASCII file that
you prepare with an editor such as EDIT/V. The
formal file designator is PASTEXT.
If you are running HP Pascal/iX from your terminal,
you will probably specify a disk textfile. If you
do not specify textfile, then the default file is
$STDIN. $STDIN is the current input device, usually
your terminal.
When textfile is your terminal, you can enter
source code interactively in response to the >
prompt. After you enter the source code, type a
colon (:) in response to the > prompt to end the
interactive input.
The source code to be compiled can be a program or
a list of modules.
progfile The name of the program file on which the
MPE/iX linker writes the linked program. The
default is $NEWPASS.
listfile The name of the file on which the compiler writes
the program listing. It can be any ASCII file.
The default is $STDLIST. $STDLIST is usually the
terminal if you are running HP Pascal/iX
interactively, or the printer if you are running a
batch job. The formal file designator is PASLIST.
If your terminal is both textfile and listfile, the
compiler does not write the program listing on the
terminal.
If listfile is $NULL or a file other than $STDLIST,
the compiler displays those lines that contain
errors on $STDLIST.
libfile The name of the HP Pascal/iX library file that the
compiler searches if a search path is not specified
with the compiler option SEARCH. The default is
PASLIB in your group and account.
quotedstring A string of no more than 132 characters (including
the single or double quotation marks that enclose
it). The quotedstring is used to pass initial
compiler options to the HP Pascal/iX compiler. HP
Pascal/iX brackets the quotedstring with dollar
signs ($) and places the string before the first
line of source code in the text file.
NOTE The formal file designators used in this command (PASTEXT, PASLIB,
and PASLIST) cannot be backreferenced as actual file designators in
the command parameter list. For further information, refer to the
"Implicit FILE Commands for Subsystems" discussion of the FILE
command.
Operation Notes
The PASXLLK command compiles and links an HP Pascal/iX program into a
file on disk. If you do not specify textfile, the compiler expects input
from the standard input device. If you do not specify listfile, the
compiler sends the program listing output to the formal file designator
PASLIST (default $STDLIST).
The object file created during compilation is a system-defined temporary
file, $NEWPASS, which is passed directly to the Link Editor as $OLDPASS.
Link Editor overwrites progfile and writes the linked program to
$OLDPASS, if progfile is omitted, which can then be executed.
NOTE This command is implemented as a command file. If you set the
HPPATH variable to null (SETVAR HPPATH ""), the command file is not
executed, and the command fails.
Use
This command may be issued from a session, job, or program. It may not
be used in BREAK. Pressing Break suspends the execution of this command.
Entering the RESUME command continues the execution.
Examples
The following example compiles and links an HP Pascal/iX program entered
through your standard input device and stores the linked program in the
file $OLDPASS. The listing will be printed on your standard list device.
PASXLLK
To compile and link an HP Pascal/iX source program from the source file
SOURCE, store it in PROG, and send the listing to your standard list
device, enter:
PASXLLK SOURCE,PROG
