Discussion

The following lists the hierarchy of Repository logicals tested by the compiler:

• If a logical is specified, use it. If it is specified and not set, a DDBADLOG error is generated.
• Next, the compiler looks for the DBLDICTIONARY logical and uses it if it’s set.
• If the DBLDICTIONARY logical is not set, the compiler looks to see if you have specified the RPSMFIL/RPSTFIL logicals. If you have set only the RPSMFIL logical, a DDBADLOG error is generated. If you have set both of these logicals and it is not a version 6, 7, or 10 format repository, a DDNOLOG error is generated.
• If the DBLDICTIONARY and RPSMFIL logicals are not set, the compiler looks for the ICSMFIL/ICSTFIL logicals. If you have set only the ICSMFIL logical, a DDBADLOG error is generated. If you have set both of these logicals and it is not a version 3 dictionary, a DDNOLOG error is generated.
• If none of the above conditions apply, a DDNOLOG error is generated.

Examples

On Windows, if set at the command prompt,

set DBLDICTIONARY=RPSDAT:rpsmain.ism,RPSDAT:rpstext.ism

On Unix,

DBLDICTIONARY=RPSDAT:rpsmain.ism,RPSDAT:rpstext.ism 
export DBLDICTIONARY

On OpenVMS,

$ DEFINE DBLDICTIONARY "RPSDAT:RPSMAIN.ISM,RPSDAT:RPSTEXT.ISM"
