.hd ddlc "interface to Prime DBMS schema compiler" 08/11/81 ddlc [-l []] [-z ] .ds 'Ddlc' serves as the Subsystem interface to the Prime DBMS schema compiler (SCHEMA). It examines its option specifications and checks them for consistency, provides Subsystem-compatible default file names for the listing and output files as needed, and then produces a Primos SCHEMA command and causes it to be executed. .sp The "-l" option is used to select the name of the file to receive the listing generated by the compiler. If a file name follows the option, then that file receives the listing. If the "-l" option is specified without a file name following it or is not specified, a default filename is constructed from the input filename by changing its suffix to ".l". For example, if the input filename is "gonzo.ddl", the listing file will be "gonzo.l"; if the input filename is "bar", the listing file will be "bar.l". .sp The input filename must be a disk file name (conventionally ending in ".ddl"). .sp In summary, then, the default command line for compiling a file named "file.ddl" is .sp .nf ddlc file.ddl -l file.l .sp which corresponds to the SCHEMA command .sp schema -i *>file.ddl -l *>file.l .sp .fi .es ddlc file.ddl ddlc payroll.ddl -l l_payroll ddlc funnyschema.ddl -z"-newopt" .me .in +5 .ti -5 "Usage: ddlc ..." for invalid option syntax. .ti -5 "missing input file name" if no input filename could be found. .ti -5 ": unreasonable input file name" if an attempt was made to read from the null device or the line printer spooler. .ti -5 "Sorry, the listing file must be a disk file" if the listing file was directed to a device file. .in -5 .bu 'Ddlc' pays no attention to standard ports. There is no way to avoid getting a listing file. .sa cdmlc (1), csubc (1), fdmlc (1), fsubc (1)
