This section describes the MPE/iX user interface to show how user
programs can programmatically access MPE/iX features
and provides an introduction to utilities and tools.
The information is presented as an overview
on a conceptual level.
For detailed information on programmatic access, refer to Command Interpreter Access and Variables Programmer's Guide (32650-90011). Programmatic access to MPE/iX allows you to
use command interpreter (CI) features in a program without having to
enter break mode.
With the available techniques, you can develop sophisticated,
automated subsystems to run under MPE/iX.
The techniques include: Using MPE/iX programmatic interfaces, command files, and user-defined commands (UDCs). Performing variable dereferencing, concatenation, string substitution, recursive dereferencing, and expression evaluation. Using Job Control Words (JCWs) and variables. Using the MPE/iX Help facility for commands, command files,
and UDCs.
