OpenVMS Utility Routines Manual

Previous Contents Index

Each item in the following list corresponds to a number highlighted in Example 11-3:

  1. Call LBR$INI_CONTROL, specifying that the function to be performed is update and that the library type is text.
  2. Call LBR$LOOKUP_KEY to find the key that points to the module you want to extract.
  3. Open an output file to receive the extracted module.
  4. Initialize the variable that is to receive the extracted records to null characters.
  5. Call LBR$GET_RECORD to see if there are more records in the file (module). A failure indicates that the end of the file has been reached.
  6. Write the extracted record data to the output file. This record should consist only of the data up to the first null character.

11.2.4 Deleting a Module

Example 11-4 illustrates the deletion of library module from a DEC Pascal program. The program is summarized in the following steps:

  1. Call LBR$LOOKUP_KEY, and specify the name of the module as the second argument. LBR$LOOKUP_KEY returns the RFA of the module as the third argument; do not alter this value.
  2. Call LBR$DELETE_KEY to delete the module key. Specify the name of the module as the second argument.
  3. Call LBR$DELETE_DATA to delete the module itself. Specify the RFA of the module obtained in Step 1 as the second argument.

Each item in the following list corresponds to a number highlighted in Example 11-4:

  1. Call LBR$INI_CONTROL, specifying that the function to be performed is update and the library type is text.
  2. Call LBR$LOOKUP_KEY to find the key associated with the module you want to delete.
  3. Call LBR$DELETE_KEY to delete the key associated with the module you want to delete. If more than one key points to the module, you need to call LBR$LOOKUP_KEY and LBR$DELETE_KEY for each key.
  4. Call LBR$DELETE_DATA to delete the module (the module header and data) from the library.

11.2.5 Using Multiple Keys and Multiple Indexes

You can point to the same module with more than one key. The keys can be in the primary index (index 1) or alternate indexes (indexes 2 through 10). The best method is to reserve the primary index for module names. In system-defined object libraries, index 2 contains the global symbols defined by the various modules.

Example 11-5 illustrates the way that keys can be associated with modules.

END IF 
! Insert aliases if module exists 
IF (STATUS) THEN 
  ! Set to index 2 
  STATUS = LBR$SET_INDEX (INDEX, 2) 
  IF (.NOT. STATUS) CALL LIB$SIGNAL (%VAL (STATUS)) 
  ! Get alias name from /ALIAS on command line 
  STATUS = CLI$GET_VALUE ('ALIAS', ALIASNAME) 
  ! Insert aliases in index 2 until bad return status 
  ! which indicates end of qualifier values 
  DO WHILE (STATUS) 
    ! Calculate length of alias name 
    ALIASNAME_LEN = LIB$LOCC (' ', ALIASNAME) - 1 
    ! Put alias name in index 
    STATUS = LBR$INSERT_KEY (INDEX, 
                             ALIASNAME (1:ALIASNAME_LEN), 
                             TXTRFA) 
    IF ((.NOT. STATUS) .AND. 
        (STATUS .NE. %LOC (LBR$_DUPKEY)) THEN 
      CALL LIB$SIGNAL (%VAL (STATUS)) 
    END IF 
    ! Get another alias 
    STATUS = CLI$GET_VALUE ('ALIAS', ALIASNAME) 
  END DO 
 
  ! Issue warning if module does not exist 
ELSE IF (STATUS .EQ. %LOC (LBR$_KEYNOTFND)) THEN 
  CALL LIB$SIGNAL (DOLIB_NOMOD, 
                   %VAL (1), 
                   MODNAME (1:MODNAME_LEN)) 
ELSE 
  CALL LIB$SIGNAL (%VAL (STATUS)) 
END IF 
 
! Exit 
END

You can look up a module using any of the keys associated with it. The following code fragment checks index 2 for a key if the lookup in the primary index fails: 


STATUS = LBR$SET_INDEX (INDEX, 1) 
IF (.NOT. STATUS) CALL LIB$SIGNAL (%VAL (STATUS)) 
STATUS = LBR$LOOKUP_KEY (INDEX, 
                         MODNAME (1:MODNAME_LEN), 
                         TXTRFA) 
IF (STATUS .EQ. %LOC (LBR$_KEYNOTFND)) THEN 
  STATUS = LBR$SET_INDEX (INDEX, 2) 
  IF (.NOT. STATUS) CALL LIB$SIGNAL (%VAL (STATUS)) 
  STATUS = LBR$LOOKUP_KEY (INDEX, 
                           MODNAME (1:MODNAME_LEN), 
                           TXTRFA) 
  IF (.NOT. STATUS) CALL LIB$SIGNAL (%VAL (STATUS)) 
END IF

There are two ways to identify the keys associated with a module:

The subroutine in Example 11-6 lists the names of keys in index 2 (the aliases) that point to a module identified on the command line by the module's name in the primary index.

11.2.6 Accessing Module Headers

You can store user information in the header of each module up to the total size of the header specified at library creation time in the CRE$L_UHDMAX option. The total size of each header in bytes is the value of MHD$B_USRDAT plus the value assigned to the CRE$L_UHDMAX option. The value of MHD$B_USRDAT is defined by the macro $MHDDEF; the default value is 16 bytes.

To put user data into a module header, first locate the module with LBR$LOOKUP_KEY; then move the data to the module header by invoking LBR$SET_MODULE, specifying the first argument (index value returned by LBR$INI_CONTROL), the second argument (RFA returned by LBR$LOOKUP_KEY), and the fifth argument (character string containing the user data).

To read user data from a module header, first locate the module with LBR$LOOKUP_KEY; then, retrieve the entire module header by invoking LBR$SET_MODULE, specifying the first, second, third (character string to receive the contents of the module header), and fourth (length of the module header) arguments. The user data starts at the byte offset defined by MHD$B_USRDAT. Convert this value to a character string subscript by adding 1.

Example 11-7 displays the user data portion of module headers on SYS$OUTPUT and applies updates from SYS$INPUT.

11.2.7 Reading Library Headers

Call LBR$GET_HEADER to obtain general information concerning the library. Pass the value returned by LBR$INI_CONTROL as the first argument. LBR$GET_HEADER returns the information to the second argument, which must be an array of 128 longwords. The LHI symbols identify the significant longwords of the array by their byte offsets into the array. Convert these values to subscripts by dividing by 4 and adding 1.

Example 11-8 reads the library header and displays some information from it.

11.2.8 Displaying Help Text

You can display text from a help library by calling the LBR$OUTPUT_HELP routine and specifying the output routine, the keywords, and the name of the library. You must also specify the input routine if the prompting mode flag is set or if the flags argument is omitted.

Note
If you specify subprograms in an argument list, they must be declared as external.

You can use the LIB$PUT_OUTPUT and LIB$GET_INPUT routines to specify the output routine and the input routine. (If you use your own routines, make sure the argument lists are the same as for LIB$PUT_OUTPUT and LIB$GET_INPUT.) Do not call LBR$INI_CONTROL and LBR$OPEN before calling LBR$OUTPUT_HELP.

Example 11-9 solicits keywords from SYS$INPUT and displays the text associated with those keywords on SYS$OUTPUT, thus inhibiting the prompting facility.
