System Debug Reference Manual

STORE 

Stores the currently defined macros or variables to a file.

Syntax 

     STORE MACROS    filename 
     STORE VARIABLES filename 

The STORE command quickly saves macros or variables to a binary file.  At
a later point, the RESTORE command can be used to restore these saved
macros or variables.

The current limits (as set by ENV MACROS or ENV VARS and ENV VARS_LOC)
are automatically saved in the STORE file, and is reestablished when this
file is restored with the RESTORE command.

Parameters 

MACROS           Specifies that macros are to be stored.  This keyword
                 can be abbreviated and entered in uppercase or
                 lowercase.

VARIABLES        Specifies that variables are to be stored.  This keyword
                 can be abbreviated and entered in uppercase or
                 lowercase.

filename         The file name where the macros or variables are to be
                 stored.

Examples 

     $nmdat > store mac savemac 
     $nmdat > macd @ 
     $nmdat > restore mac savemac 

Stores the currently defined macros into the file SAVEMAC. All macros are
deleted, then the RESTORE command is used to restore them all again.

Related command:  RESTORE

Related ENV variables :   MACROS, VARS and VARS_LOC

Limitations, Restrictions 

STORE and RESTORE are currently very version dependent.

If the internal versions of macros, variables, or storage management
changes, it may not be possible to restore from a file that was stored
with earlier versions of the STORE command.  An error is generated.


CAUTION The output format of all System Debug commands is subject to change without notice. Programs that are developed to postprocess System Debug output should not depend on the exact format (spacing, alignment, number of lines, uppercase or lowercase, or spelling) of any System Debug command output.
