List of the generation options
Values | Meaning |
---|---|
ATTRE | UNISYS 2200: Definition of the default attributes at the Screen level. |
ATTRIB | UNISYS 2200: The display of the attributes dynamically specified
(Reverse video and Blink) is kept. This option applies
to F7020. CICS®: The dynamic modification of the presentation attributes is taken into account. This option applies to F7020. |
BREAKDATE | Breaks down date Data Elements. The date Data Elements is broken down into elementary Data Elements upon generation. You can also inhibit this option by entering BREAKDATE=NO if it was set to YES at the Library level. This breakdown is effective in the following entities:
Notes:
A date is broken down only if the generated COBOL level of the date field is lower than or equal to 47. If a VALUE has been entered, it is generated in the group field. Any additional information (such as a VALUE) must be entered on the same line as the Data Element call on I, E, or S-type lines in the work areas. If a continuation line has been specified, the date is not broken down. The Data Elements that are called in SQL Segments cannot be broken down, except if these SQL Segments are DB2® Segments and if the DESCR=ALL option is entered on the DB2 Database Block. Since host variables cannot be group fields, the elementary fields are generated under a redefined group field in the following way: ffnn-date-BRK REDEFINES ffnn-date. |
CSSA | Memorizes all the SSAs upon a generated access to a database. This option is
valid for all the Screens of a Dialog. When this option is specified, all the Screens in the Dialog must be recompiled because the length of the communication area is increased. |
CVISION | GCOS6: Downloads the standard validations (presence validation, numeric validation, formatting of the initialization character) onto the CVISION screen manager, thus improving performances. |
DCPROC | Generates the DECLARE CURSOR of DB2, NONSTOP SQL, and DATACOM tables in the PROCEDURE DIVISION,
FOC function. If this option is not specified, the DECLARE CURSOR is generated in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION. |
DFHAID | IBM® CICS: Initializes the PF key table with the content of DFHAID. |
DYNAM | Calls Pactables Tables with a dynamic call. |
DYNPRT | Specifies the recognition of the variable field protection in the
DE-AT table (position 5) and the automatic processing of the protection in
F7020. Enter an F in position 5 of the DE-AT table for the Data Element. The Data Element then becomes protected and is received by the program (nature F). This option is unavailable with the IBM 36, UNISYS A series variant (SDF format). |
F10 | Processes each category (top, bottom, repetitive), if the category contains at least one variable field or access to a Segment. |
FOR | Formats the generated COBOL lines. The DATA DIVISION lines
are left-aligned, the PROCEDURE DIVISION lines are not aligned and there is one
COBOL command per line. This option can be entered on the Library Definition tab. In this case, the Dialog is generated in formatted COBOL even if the FOR option is not explicitly entered at this level. With this
option, up to 150 lines are possible in a COBOL paragraph (between two periods).
Warning: This option still exists but is no longer
maintained
|
HEXVAL | UNISYS A: Generates fields with an HEXADECIMAL value in PIC XX. |
HLPI | Generates the file access with the HLPI interface. |
HLPVAL | The values to be checked (indicated in the -D Lines of a Data Element) are sent to the error messages file. It is true even if this check has been removed from the Screen in which the Data Element is called. |
HPRT | Calls the documentation that is associated with the protected fields
(P or F type). It includes the documentation of the
Data Element and the associated Texts and comments in the Screen -GC Lines
section. In the help program, the screen flow is as follows: first the help on the variable Data Elements, then the help on the protected Data Elements (in the order of the -CE Lines tab). |
IMSME | Generates the multiscreen variant for IMS™. |
INDEXS | DL/1: Generates the Segment access through secondary indexes. This option is not compatible with the NOP58 option if the target Segment code is different from the source Segment code and if the source Segment is not generated in the PSB field. |
LOGMES | With the CICS multiterminal and MICRO
FOCUS variants, this option generates a logical message. This message manages both the screen
display and the sending of messages to the communication monitor. This monitor is selected with the
MONIT option (if it is not a default value in the variant). AS400 and IMS: This option is used only for the internet. |
LPAGE or LPA | Manages the LOGICAL PAGING in implicit mode (with PA1
function key) or in explicit mode (with a logical paging operator on the Screen -CE
Lines tab). The LPAGE option is available with a monitor, a submonitor, or with MONITOFF. With the MONITOFF option, paging applies to the same Screen only. With a monitor or submonitor, paging applies
to several Screens if the Screen codes are entered on the Dialog work areas.
Note: If submonitors
are used, all the Screens that constitute a paging group must be in the same
submonitor.
The LPAGE and SWAP options are not compatible. If they are both indicated, only the LPAGE option is recognized. |
MONIT | IBM CICS and UNISYS A Series: Generation with a monitor. |
MONITOFF or MOFF | IMS: One transaction code per Dialog
Screen and no monitor generation. MONITOFF and NOTRAC are incompatible. If both are entered, only the MONITOFF option is recognized. |
NOATTR | IMS: Generates the protected fields in the MOD without their attributes (ATTR=YES). This option is valid for all the Screens of a Dialog. |
NOLOCK | AS400: Reads the Segments without update. It adds the WITH NO
LOCK clause in the read function when the file is open in OPEN I-O. This option does not work if several Segments of a same file are accessed, some with update, some without, because READ WITH NO LOCK removes the preceding lock. |
NOMAP | Generates or does not generate the map, according to the value of the option
in the Dialog and the Screen. The generation of the map also depends on the Generation with map check box in the Screen Definition. The value NOMAP is equivalent to NOMAP=YES. It inhibits the generation of the map. The value NOMAP=NO generates the map. The value of the option in the Dialog is automatically taken into account in the Screen. To keep this value in all the Screens of the Dialog, there is no need to enter this option in all the Screens. However, to modify the value of the option that is indicated in the Dialog in some
Screens, you must indicate it. The two following cases are possible:
|
NOOCF | The OCF variable is not set to value 1 upon the first program run (no F0160 function). |
NOOPEN | MICRO FOCUS and DEC: Optimizes the opening of the HE file (help file backup), the LE, OU, EM (error messages) files, and the CONNECT to ORACLE. |
NOOPENB | HP3000, TURBOIMAGE: Stops the opening of the TURBOIMAGE database. The OPEN is not generated in the program. |
NOPSB | Limits the Segment generation. In each Screen, only the Segments in use and their hierarchical parents are generated. In the monitor and submonitors, the PSB field is no longer generated and is not sent to the Screens. |
NORPT | No automatic processing of repeated Data Elements. |
NOSAV | With DEC/VAX, GCOS7, MICRO FOCUS, ICL, IBM 36 and 38, and BOS/TP: Avoids generating the description of, and the physical access to the HE help file. |
NOSDERR | UNISYS 2200: Recognizes the ERMSG Data Element in the message, which therefore is not sent by the SEND ERROR clause. |
NOTRAC | IMS: The transaction code is not generated in the MID of the first Screen of the Dialog. |
OCF | The OCF variable is set to value 1 upon the first program run (current default value). |
OFF | The programs and maps of the Dialog are generated with option MDT-OFF (default value for GCOS7 FORMS). |
ON | Default value (except for GCOS7 FORMS). The programs and maps of the Dialog are generated with the MDT-ON option. |
PACSQL | Recognizes the data that is entered in the Segment -GG Lines for the SQL statements. |
PSBINIT | CICS-DL/1 Screen with monitor option: Used for the connection to the PSB and its termination (SCHEDULE PSB and TERMINATE) on the submonitor and not on each Screen. |
REFER or REF | Generates the list of all the Data Elements that are used in a Dialog. This
list is formatted as comments in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION. It includes the
following Data Elements:
|
REPET or RPT | Validation, transfer, and positioning of the attributes for the variable
fields that are repeated horizontally or vertically. When a repeated field is used in a Segment access, you must indicate the number of repeated uses in the Segment call of the Screen. |
SQLALL or SQA | SQL: All the table columns are listed in the Segment access
commands:
|
SQLCA or SQC | SQL: The INCLUDE SQLCA statement is generated in the WORKING-STORAGE SECTION if one or more DB2 or NONSTOP SQL Segments are called in the Screen (-CS Lines tab, Organization = S, Q, or N). |
SQLIND or SQI | The presence indicators are generated for the Data Element before it is updated or displayed. |
SQLREF or SQR | The indicators are generated for the new V-FFnn-DELCO structure. Cross-references are then automatically managed. |
SSMON | The PSB of the submonitor that each Screen belongs to is recognized. One PSB is then generated for each submonitor instead of one PSB for all the Screens in the Dialog (see the -GG Lines). |
SWAP | IMS: Option to be used with a monitor or
submonitor. The code of the Screen to branch to through a function key is indicated in the MFS map. In each map, a 10-character FUNC field is generated and includes the PF key value and the external name of the next Screen to branch to. For End-Of-Conversation, the external name of the Screen must not be entered. When using deferred branching, or setting OPER with the PF key, the external name is that of the generated map. The FUNC field is processed in the monitor or submonitor. The SWAP option improves performance as it avoids loading the program which processes the branching. Note: If the
MONITOFF or LPAGE option is selected, the
SWAP option is not taken into account.
|
TMF | TANDEM: With this option, the transactional mode is recognized by the generation of BEGIN-TRANSACTION and END-TRANSACTION in the requesters and of BEGIN-WORK and COMMIT-WORK orders in the Pacweb communication monitor. |
TS | CICS: The communication area is managed outside the LINKAGE SECTION. This area is described in WORKING and saved in TEMPORARY STORAGE by default. In addition, if MDTOFF and call of the help function, the Screen is saved in only one area. |
TZVAR | BULL: With this option, the reception and display areas are used in case of error. |
ZNUM | The transfer of the numeric fields to the message (F8145) is conditioned by the fact that no error was encountered (SCR-ER = 0). |
Values | Meaning |

With the INTERNAL value, the Data Elements that are called in the Logical View are generated with their internal format and their usage is recognized. With the EXTENDED option, the format of the Data Elements is computed. Their usage is ignored and replaced by the DISPLAY usage. For signed numeric Data Elements, it is replaced by the SIGN IS LEADING usage. |
INICHECK | Check of the Data Element presence. Option for a TUI client Dialog. A buffer for the Data Element presence is generated and initialized to P (absent Data Element). When Data Elements are transferred (F30 function), the host variable indicator of each Data Element actually transferred is set to N. The transfers for display are also conditioned by the Data Element presence. |
