Explaining the VSE JCL Statements

The statements in Figure 22 on page 84 are explained as follows. For information about programming JCL for VSE,PrintrefServicesto Facility/VSE: Application Programming Guide.

PRNTOUT

Defines the output file produced from the application. The applic cannot be spooled to POWER, because ACIF does not read data fro spool. Theuser print isfilethe name of the print data set created b application.

USERAPPL

Represents the job step to run the application that produces the output. Theuser applicationrefers to the program that produces the pr

//DLBL PRD2,'VSE'PRD2.LIBRARY' // EXTENT ,volser // LIBDEF PHASE,SEARCH=(PRD2.AFP)

Defines the library or libraries to be searched for the ACIF the AFP resources (form definitions, page definition, fonts, overlay segments).

//ASSGN SYSLST,...

Defines the control statement and error message listing file.

//ASSGN SYS006,... // DLBL INPUT,... // EXTENT SYS006,...

Defines	the	file	to	be	processed by ACIF. In the	sample in Fig
page 84,	this	is	the	same	data set PRNTOUTas definedfileby.	the

//ASSGN SYS007,... // DLBL OUTPUT,... // EXTENT SYS007,...

Defines the document file that ACIF creates as a result of proc application's print fileOUTPUTDD. See on page 101 for the characteristics this file.

//ASSGN SYS008,... // DLBL RESOBJ,... // EXTENT SYS008,...

Defines the optional file in which ACIF places print resources use processing the application's print file. This file is not required

RESTYPE=NONEis specified in the processing parameter file.

//ASSGN SYS009,... // DLBL INDEX,... // EXTENT SYS009,...

Defines the optional file in which ACIF places the index object requested.

This	statement is	not required unless indexing is requested		or	unl
print	file contains indexing structured fields. If you		are	not	s
input	print file	contains indexing structured fields, and	you	do	no

object file created, specify // ASSGN SYS009,IGN; no index object f created.

//EXEC PGM=APKACIF ACIF parms go here.

Invokes the ACIF program. This statement must be followed immediatel ACIF processing parameters.
