IBM SC34-4499-03 manual TeamConnection syntax for MVS build scripts, Tcbldusr

&TCBLDUSR

On MVS, can be used in JCL scripts, which will be substituted with the userID before processing the script.

&TCINPUT

This variable is used for in-stream data. For each build input, the line where &TCINPUT appears is duplicated and the variable &TCINPUT substituted with the input name.

&TCOUTPUT

This variable is used for in-stream data. For each build output, the line where &TCOUTPUT appears is duplicated and the variable &TCOUTPUT substituted with the output name.

&TCWKAREA

The name of the work area in which the build is being performed.

&TCRELEAS

The name of the release in which the build is being performed.

Note: The &TCINPUT and &TCOUTPUT substitutable variables have limited scope in

the MVS build scripts and should be used only within the in-stream data.

You can de®ne other variables. You can set them by specifying a value forParameters when you start a build. These variables are set in the parameters string passed to the build script.

Further, these variables can be used for variable substitution within MVS build scripts. Variable substitution works similarly to JCL variable substitution.

TeamConnection syntax for MVS build scripts

TeamConnection has extended the existing JCL syntax. The extended syntax tells the TeamConnection build server where to put the inputs, where to get the outputs, and where to get messages from the translators after an MVS build.

To direct inputs, outputs, and messages, add TCEXT=xxx to the data set attributes de®ned to a ddname, wherexxx is one of the following:

vThe base name extension from the TeamConnection part Ð for example, TCEXT=H, where H is the extension from A.H.

vOne or more base name extensions from TeamConnection parts, surrounded by parentheses Ð for example, TCEXT=(H,HPP), where H is an extension from A.H or HPP is an extension from A.HPP.

vThe string TCOUT, which declares that the contents of the data set assigned to the ddname will be sent back to TeamConnection. Users can view this information in one of these ways:

±From a command line prompt, typing teamc part name -viewmsgand pressing Enter
