MPE/iX Commands Reference Manual (32650-90877)

360 Chapter10
Command List VIII
Commands PASCAL thru PURGEUSER
Pascal/V interactively, or the printer if you are running a batch job.
PASLIST cannot be backreferenced as an actual file designator in the
command parameter list. For further information, refer to the "Implicit
FILE Commands for Subsystems" discussion of the FILE command.
quotedstring
A sequence of characters between two single quotation marks
(apostrophes) or between two double quotation marks. You may use the
delimiter as part of the string so long as the delimiter appears twice. Any
occurrence of two single or two double quotation marks in a row is
considered part of the string, and, therefore, not the terminating delimiter.
INFO=
quotedstring
is used in the Pascal programming language to pass
initial compiler options to a program. Pascal/V brackets the
quotedstring
with dollar signs and places it before the first line of source code in the text
file.
Operation Notes
The PASCALPREP command compiles and prepares a compatibility mode Pascal/V program
into a program file on disk. If you do not specify
textfile
, MPE/iX expects input from the
current input device. If you do not specify
listfile
, MPE/iX sends the listing output to
the formal file designator PASLIST (default $STDLIST). The USL file $OLDPASS, created
during compilation, is a temporary file passed directly to the MPE segmenter. You may
access it only if you do not use the default for
progfile
. This is because the MPE
segmenter also uses $OLDPASS to store the prepared program segments, overwriting any
existing temporary file of the same name.
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 prepares a Pascal/V program entered through your
standard input device, and stores the prepared program segments in the file $OLDPASS.
The listing is printed on your standard list device.
PASCALPREP
To compile and prepare a Pascal/V source program from the source file PASCSRC, store it in
PASCPROG, and send the listing to your standard list device, enter:
PASCALPREP PASCSRC,PASCPROG
