Xerox Printer manual Hfdl execution DDnames for decentralized, Xfifo

HOST FORMS DESCRIPTION LANGUAGE

Table 5±7 identifies the DDnames and the statements required in addition to the resource data sets for decentralized printers.

Table 5±7.		HFDL execution DDnames for decentralized
		printers
	DDname	Description
	SYSPRINT	Writes the compiler listings when the LIST
		parameter of the COMPILE command is coded.
		Compile errors and the copyright message are
		written to SYSPRINT as well.
	SYSTERM	Indicates a malfunction. Contact your system
		administrator. Information is not written to this
		DDname under normal conditions.
	XFLOG	Condition codes log for all forms compiled. This
		file is useful when you compile forms and would
		like to find out quickly which form causes the
		program to return the condition code to other
		than 0.
	FSL	Data set containing the forms source language
	DDname	that is input to the compiler (FSL). This data set
		may be a sequential disk file or a member of a
		partitioned data set (PDS).
	XFINP	Temporary data set that the compiler uses.
	XFIFF	Temporary data set that the compiler uses.
	XFFRM	Temporary data set that the compiler uses.
	XFTMP	Temporary data set that the compiler uses.
	XFIFO	Temporary data set that the compiler uses.

You must customize the HFDL compiler job control language (JCL) to meet the standards and conventions for your MVS installation. The minimum changes that you should make follow below.

·Modify the JOB statement to meet installation standards.

·Modify the DSNAMEs in the DD statements for the resource data sets, execution data sets, and XSSUPTAB to meet installation standards.

·Modify the UNIT name for the temporary data sets.

·Modify the EXEC statement for each compilation for specific form names and parameters governing the compile.

·Do not remove the COND parameter as shown in step 2 in Figure 5±10. These parameters are required for proper condition code handling.

For complex forms, increase your region size and temporary data set space allocation to avoid ABENDS.
