Discussion

The put_descr function does a Synergy DBL store operation.

It performs a store operation exactly as if the following Synergy DBL statement:

DSTFLD = SRCFLD

were present in a Synergy program, with source pointing to the descriptor for SRCFLD and destination pointing to the descriptor for DSTFLD. All of the required conversions, truncations, alignments, and so forth occur automatically, according to the data types of the two fields.

On OpenVMS, the functionality of put_descr is available as dscr_to_dscr. See the xcallv.h file for details.
