Defines which libraries are to be searched for members of a specified type.
Syntax:
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
* LIBDEF OPERANDS
*--- // LIBDEF type[
* [,SEARCH=(lib1.slib1......lib15,slib15]
* [,CATALOG=lib.slib]
* [,TEMP|PERM]
*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Where:
- Type
- Either PHASE, OBJ, SOURCE, PROC, * or DUMP but only PROC is supported. The other options are parsed but not processed*.
- SEARCH
- Sets up a search chain of up to 15 libraries to be searched.
- CATALOG
- Library to receive output from a linkage editor or a dump. Parsed but not processed*.
- TEMP
- LIBDEF in effect for the duration of a JOB.
- PERM
- LIBDEF in effect permanently. Parsed but not processed*.
Note: The command and operand combinations listed in these topics are supported unless indicated as "parsed but not processed". Where indicated, this means:
- Parsed but not processed - indicates that the command and the operand are not supported, however,
Enterprise Developer parses it and, if it fails validation, a JCL error is generated.
- Parsed but not processed* - indicates that a number of the operands for JCL and POWER commands (for example, any tape or volume-specific operands) do not apply in the
Micro Focus
Enterprise Developer environment. See
General Differences.
