PLISTF (UDC)
The PLISTF UDC executes the LISTFILE command to list descriptions of one
or more disk files.
System-defined UDCs are not automatically available. Your System Manager
must use the SETCATALOG command to make these UDCs available for your
use. For example:
SETCATALOG HPPXUDC.PUB.SYS;SYSTEM;APPEND
Syntax
LISTF [fileset] [,format_opt] [;outfile]
Parameters
The following parameters are supported with the PLISTF UDC. Refer to the
LISTFILE command for a complete explanation of the parameters used with
the PLISTF UDC.
fileset Specifies a set of files to be listed, including
MPE and HFS files. If fileset is not specified,
the default is @. If fileset includes more than
one file, be sure to separate the file names with
commas and enclose the set in parentheses, for
example:
:plistf (test1,test2,test3)
format_opt An output format option. If this parameter is
omitted, the default is FORMAT=0, which shows only
the file names. The format option must be
specified as a numeric value. Format names (for
example, QUALIFY) are not supported by this UDC.
Refer to the LISTFILE command for a complete
description of each available format option.
outfile The name of the output file. If this parameter is
omitted, the output is displayed to $STDLIST. The
outfile supports both MPE and HFS syntax. The
outfile cannot be $NEWPASS.
Operation Notes
The PLISTF UDC lists descriptions of one or more disk files at the level
of detail you select. The UDC executes the following form of the
LISTFILE command:
LISTFILE fileset ,format_opt [>outfile]
Use
This UDC may be issued from a session, a job, a program, or in break
mode. Pressing Break aborts execution.
If a permanent file exists with the same name as specified as outfile,
then CIOR defaults are used rather than the PLISTF CCTL default.
Examples
Refer to the LISTFILE command later in this chapter for examples.
