Creating & Accessing a Workspace
For a description of how to create and access a Workspace, see Chapter 1
of this Reference Manual.
Displaying the Contents of a Workspace
There are five main commands which allow you to display the contents of a
Workspace:
1) Show Files Gives a list of all Use files, Owned files, the
object file, and the program file.
2) Show Source Gives the language, type, and name of the
associated listing file for each owned file.
3) Show Equates Displays all file equations that were generated
as a result of the USE command.
4) Show Library Gives the name of the default copy library and
module names within it.
5) Set Workspace Gives the name of the object file, program
file, listing directory file, key file,
dictionary, and compile priority. It also
gives the default link and run options and
allows you to change them.
For details regarding each of these commands, see Chapter 4 of this
Reference Manual.
Adding Files to a Workspace
There are two types of source files within a Workspace - Owned files and
use files. Owned files belong to the current Workspace and can be edited
within it. Use files are outside of the Workspace, e.g., MPE XL files or
files created in a different Workspace.
The following commands allow you to add new owned files to your
workspace:
EDIT Command When you enter the EDIT command with a new
name, a new file will be created with that
name.
COPYFILE Command Is used to make a copy of an existing TSAM
file.
CONVERT Command Is used to convert an existing MPE XL or KSAM
file to a TSAM file.
Use files are added to the Workspace by entering the USE command.
Deleting Files from a Workspace
Owned files are deleted when you execute the PURGE command. You should
do this while in the workspace so the owned file entry can be deleted
from the Workspace Directory.
To delete a USE file, you must execute the DISCARD command.
