The Fix CLP Source command fixes the source for one or all CLP, CLLE,
or CMD members in a file. The source is reformatted in a manner
similar to if you had prompted for every command in SEU. Both system
and user written commands will be reformatted.
The system API QCAPCMD is used to insert the keywords and syntax
check the statement. Reformatting occurs in an RPG program.
Both an input and output source file may be named. The default is to
update the data in the same source member such as:
FIXCLPSRC MBR(xxx) INPSRCF(yyy) OUTSRCF(*INPSRCF)
For example, if your source looked like:
CALL PGMA
CHGVAR &VARB &VARA
After FIXCLPSRC was run, it would look like:
CALL PGM(PGMA)
CHGVAR VAR(&VARB) VALUE(&VARA)
The source to be converted must be free of syntax errors or the
source will not be converted. If you enter the source with SEU and
no errors occur, FIXCLPSRC is designed to fix the source to make it
appear as if you had prompted for every command.
The reformatting is first done to a temporary file in QTEMP. If no
errors occur, the data is copied to the output source file.
Formatting of the statements occurs similar to SEU:
** The labels are placed beginning in position 2.
** The commands begin in position 14.
** Keywords are inserted.
** The first line of parameters begins at position 25.
** Any overflow parameter lines begin at 27.
** If the source file is 92 bytes (80 bytes of data), the source
is formatted to fit within 71 bytes to allow simple viewing in
SEU.
FIXCLPSRC may also be used to reformat existing source to a wider or
shorter record length. For example, you may have your CLP source in
92 byte source files and want to convert it to a 120 byte source
files. CPYSRCF will copy the statements, but does not reformat them
to match the new record length. FIXCLPSRC will reformat the
statements.
There is a minimum length of 92 byte source files (80 bytes of data)
and a maximum length of 240 bytes (maximum size handled by SEU).
The source type CMD is also reformatted by FIXCLPSRC.
Reformatting of comments and labels
-----------------------------------
The command prompter cannot be used within SEU to format a statement
that contains only a comment, a label, or a comment and a label. A
similar restriction exists with the API. If a statement is read that
does not contain a command, no formatting occurs. FIXCLPSRC outputs
this type of statement in the same format as it is input. Thus if
you have a source record that contains only a comment, it will be
output as it is input. Some reformatting may occur if the output
source file is wider or shorter in record length.
An option exists (MAXFMTWTH) to allow formatting within a shorter
length than the file. For example, if the source statement length is
100 (source file length of 112), the formatting can be made for an 80
wide screen by specifying MAXFMTWTH(80).
Command options
---------------
An option exists to retain any comments that appear in positions 1-13
of a new command. This allows you to retain any comments to the left
of the command rather than have them appear at the end of the
command.
An option exists to determine the sequence numbers used for the new
source. The default is to re-number the statements (1.00, 2.00
etc.).
Specifying *SAME causes the same sequence number to be used. Because
reformatting may cause a different number of statements to exist in
the source member, some minor changes in the sequence numbers may
occur. See the discussion of the SEQNBRS parameter.
An option exists to align a qualified command so the command name
begins in position 14 (same as an unqualified command). See the
discussion of the QLFCMD parameter.
Spooled output
--------------
A spooled file is output if MBR(*ALL) is specified which will list
each member found and if any errors occurred. If a single member is
named, a spooled file is only output if errors are found.
If a command does pass the validation performed by the API, the first
record of the statement is printed with an error indication.
Probably reasons are:
** The command is unknown.
** The keywords do not match what is required.
** The command validity checker has found an error.
Source date on each record
--------------------------
The source date of each statement is retained in the new output (a
new source date is not assigned). There is an exception if a command
requires multiple output records. The source date used for
additional records will be set to be the same as the most current
date within any line of the statement.
Command parameters *CMD
------------------
MBR The member to be fixed. The special value *ALL
exists to fix all members in a source file. Only
the members of source type CLP, CLLE, or CMD will be
fixed.
INPSRCF The qualified file name of the input source file.
The library value defaults to *LIBL. *CURLIB may
also be used. The file must be a source file with a
record length of 92 to 240 (80 - 228 bytes of data).
OUTSRCF The qualified file name of the output source file.
The file defaults to *INPSRCF meaning the
reformatted source will be written back to the input
source file member if no errors occur.
The library qualifier defaults to blank which means
to use the same library as the INPSRCF. *LIBL or
*CURLIB may also be used. The file must be a source
file with a record length of 92 to 240 (80 - 228
bytes of data).
If a single member is being reformatted to a
different file (not being updated), the member must
not exist.
If all members in a file are being reformatted to a
different file, no members may exist in the output
source file. Any members which are not of a type
CLP, CLLE, or CMD will be identified on the listing
and will not appear in the output file.
ALWLDGCOM A *YES/*NO parameter that defaults to *YES which
allows any comments to the left of a command to be
retained. The comment must be totally contained
within the first 13 positions of the source record.
If you place a comment in positions 1-13 before a
command and then prompt for the command in SEU, the
string that is returned places the comment at the
end of the command.
*NO causes any comments in 1-13 to be placed at the
end of the command as if you had prompted with SEU.
QLFCMD How to align a qualified command.
*SEU is the default to align as SEU does with the
library part beginning in position 14 followed by a
slash and then the command name.
*CMD may be specified to align the command name in
position 14 thus allowing all commands to begin in
14. The slash is placed in position 13 and the
library name to the left. If a label exists for the
same line, *CMD is ignored and the library part will
begin in 14.
SEQNBRS The default is *RESEQ which causes the reformatted
source to be sequenced as 1.00, 2.00 etc.
The value *SAME causes FIXCLPSRC to attempt to use
the same sequence numbers as were input. Because
some commands are contained on multiple records and
the number of output records may not be the same as
the number of input records, some changes may occur.
The sequence number of the first record of each
command is used as a base. Each additional record
to be output for the same command is bumped by .01.
Thus for SEQNBRS(*SAME), if the first record of a
command was 78.00, the first record output for the
command would be 78.00. Any additional records for
the same command would be 78.01, 78.02 etc.
MAXFMTWTH The maximum formatting width to be used. The
default is *FILE to format the statements to the
length of the source statements within the file.
A length can be specified between 80 and 240 to
format the statement based on a shorter width.
For example, if your source statements are wider
than 80, but you want to format them for an 80 byte
wide display, specify MAXFMTWTH(80).
Restrictions
------------
** The formatting used is designed to be similar to prompting in
SEU, but slight differences may occur.
** The SEQNBRS *SAME option may not produce the exact same
sequence numbers because the number of records output for a
command may differ. See the discussion with the SEQNBRS
parameter.
** See the previous discussion of the handling of the source date
assigned to each output statement.
** A statement that contains only a comment, or a label, or a
comment and a label will not be reformatted unless the number
of output records exceeds one for the statement.
** The source files named must have a record length between 92
and 240 bytes.
Use with PDM
------------
PDM allows an alternative to define a user option. When the 'Work
with Members using PDM' display occurs, you can use the special
function keys to create your own option.
When a user option is specified, you cannot prompt for the CRTxxx
command to be submitted. All of the command parameters which are not
passed from PDM, must be in the source.
You must first consider where you want to place the options. The
default is the QAUOOPT file in QGPL. You can see which options file
is being used by specifying F18 'Change defaults'.
If you do not want to use the default, then you must create your own
file. A typical solution would be to use CRTDUPOBJ to duplicate the
existing QAUOOPT file in QGPL to a library of your choice (use the
same name of QAUOOPT). Then use the 'Change Defaults' display and
modify the library for the QAUOOPT file.
After you have selected which file to use, the 'Work With Members'
display should appear. You can use the F16 key for 'User Options'.
This will display the 'Work with User-Defined Options' display and
you will see the existing options. To create a new option, specify
F6.
A display will appear named 'Create User-Defined Options'. You can
enter a 2 character ID for the option. You may choose any
characters, but a typical entry would be 'FX' (Fix CLP source). The
command you key in should be as follows:
FIXCLPSRC MBR(&N) INPSRCF(&L/&F)
The variable names (like &L) are used by PDM to determine what should
be mapped into the command.
