Stores the currently defined macros or variables to a file.

Syntax

   STORE MACROS    filename

   STORE VARIABLES filename

The STORE command quickly saves macros or variables to a binary file. At a later point, the RESTORE command can be used to restore these saved macros or variables.

The current limits (as set by ENV MACROS or ENV VARS and ENV VARS_LOC) are automatically saved in the STORE file, and is reestablished when this file is restored with the RESTORE command.

Parameters

MACROS

Specifies that macros are to be stored. This keyword can be abbreviated and entered in uppercase or lowercase.

VARIABLES

Specifies that variables are to be stored. This keyword can be abbreviated and entered in uppercase or lowercase.

filename

The file name where the macros or variables are to be stored.

Examples

   $nmdat > store mac savemac

   $nmdat > macd @

   $nmdat > restore mac savemac

Stores the currently defined macros into the file SAVEMAC. All macros are deleted, then the RESTORE command is used to restore them all again.

Related command: RESTORE

Related ENV variables : MACROS, VARS and VARS_LOC

Limitations, Restrictions

STORE and RESTORE are currently very version dependent.

If the internal versions of macros, variables, or storage management changes, it may not be possible to restore from a file that was stored with earlier versions of the STORE command. An error is generated.

CAUTION: The output format of all System Debug commands is subject to change without notice. Programs that are developed to postprocess System Debug output should not depend on the exact format (spacing, alignment, number of lines, uppercase or lowercase, or spelling) of any System Debug command output.
