fpt Reference: VXRMS Library ID

fpt and WinFPT Reference Manual - Command-line Commands

VXRMS LIBRARY ID

Syntax:

VX/RMS LIBRARY ID [:] <integer>

The commands CHANGE ISAM FILE REFERENCES TO SUB-PROGRAM CALLS, CHANGE ALL I/O TO SUB-PROGRAM CALLS and CHANGE FILE I/O TO SUB-PROGRAM CALLS replace some or all I/O statements by calls to the VX/RMS library routines. This command specifies the version of the VX/RMS libraries to be used. There are two important issues:

In versions of the VX/RMS libraries with compatibility ID 2 or lower, the VXRMS_INIT routine had two arguments. For ID 3 and later, a third argument was introduced which specifies whether or not all file I/O is to be handled by VX/RMS.
The VXRMS_PACK_BUFFER and VXRMS_UNPACK_BUFFER routines are available in versions of the libraries with ID 4 and later. Values of the library ID of 3 or less imply the command VX/RMS NOT TO USE PACK BUFFER SUBROUTINES.
