Compiles an HP RPG/XL program. HP RPG/XL is not part of the 900 Series HP 3000 Computer System Fundamental Operating Software and must be purchased separately. This command is recognized only if HP RPG/XL is installed on your system.
RPGXL [textfile][,[objectfile][,[listfile]]] [;INFO=quotedstring]
This command follows the optional MPE/iX command line syntax.
textfile Actual file designator of the input file from which the source program is read. This can be any ASCII input file. Formal file designator is RPGTEXT. Default is $STDIN. objectfile Actual file designator of the object file to which the object code is stored. This file is stored in binary form and has a file code of 1461 or NMOBJ. Its formal file designator is RPGOBJ. If the objectfile parameter is omitted, the object code is saved to the temporary file $OLDPASS. If you specify objectfile, the compiler will store the object file in a permanent file of the correct size and type, and with the name you specified. If a file of the same name already exists, the object code will overwrite that file. If the compiler issues an error message telling you that a new or existing object file you are trying to compile to is too small, you will have to build the object file with a larger size and recompile to it. You may use the MPE/iX SAVE command to store $OLDPASS as a permanent file under another name. listfile Actual file designator of the file to which the program listing is written. This can be any ASCII output file. Formal file designator is RPGLIST. Default is $STDLIST. quotedstring A parameter for the compiler. It is a quoted string that may contain the word "VERSION" or "version". It is used to display the compiler and library VUF number.
The formal file designators used in this command (RPGTEXT, RPGOBJ, RPGLIST) cannot be backreferenced as actual file designators in the command parameter list.
The RPGXL command compiles an HP RPG/XL program and stores the object code in a source file on disk. If textfile is not specified, MPE expects the source program to be entered from your standard input ($STDIN). If you do not specify listfile, MPE/iX sends the listing to your standard list device ($STDLIST) and identifies it by the formal file designator, RPGLIST. If you omit the objectfile parameter, the object code is saved in the file domain as $OLDPASS. To keep it as a permanent file, you save $OLDPASS under another name. This command may be issued from a session, job, or program. It may not be used in BREAK. Pressing [Break] suspends the execution of this command. Entering RESUME continues the execution.
This command is implemented as a command file. If you set the HPPATH variable to null (SETVAR HPPATH ""), the command file will not be executed, and the command will fail.
The following example compiles an HP RPG/XL program entered from your standard input device and stores the object program in the object file $OLDPASS. The listing then sent to your standard list device RPGXL The next example compiles an HP RPG/XL program contained in the disk file RPGSRC, and stores the object program in the object file MYRPGOBJ. The program listing is stored in the disk file LISTFILE. RPGXL RPGSRC,MYRPGOBJ,LISTFILE
Program development in the Native Mode of MPE/iX uses the new LINK command in place of the MPE V/E PREP command. This produces a significant change in the method of linking code that you must take into account. If you have created an RPG program called MAIN and a FORTRAN subprogram called SUB, each contained in a separate file, you might choose to handle it this way in MPE V/E RPG MAIN, SOMEUSL FTN SUB, SOMEUSL PREP SOMEUSL, SOMEPROG RUN SOMEPROG The second command appends the code from SUB to SOMEUSL. However, LINK (in MPE/iX Native Mode) does not append SUB. On MPE/iX, you must compile the source files into separate object files and then use the LinkEditor to link the two object files into the program file, as in this example RPGXL MAIN, OBJMAIN FTNXL SUB, OBJSUB LINK from=objmain,objsub;to=someprog RUN SOMEPROG However, if an NMRL is used instead of an NMOBJ, the above can be simplified to the following: BUILD RLFILE;DISC=10000;CODE=NMRL RPGXL MAIN, RLFILE RPGXL SUB, RLFILE LINK RLFILE, SOMEPROG RUN SOMEPROG
