Compiling a Module Definition File
To set the MXCMPUM environment variable, enter this command at an OSS prompt
before invoking the c89 utility:
export MXCMPUM="/G/usr/mydir/mxCompileUserModule"
For more information, see the Open System Services Shell and Utilities Reference
Manual.
Compiling a Module Definition File
Embedded SQL application source files preprocessed with the -x and -m options or
that set the SQLMX_PREPROCESSOR_VERSION=800 environment variable continue to
generate module definition files as done in SQL/MX Release 1.8 and previous
releases.
To compile a module definition file, use the SQL/MX compiler mxcmp command on the
module definition (.m) file. The SQL/MX compiler places a compiled user module file in
the global /usr/tandem/sqlmx/USERMODULES directory or in the user-specified
local application directory.
Command-Line Syntax
To invoke the SQL/MX compiler, at an OSS prompt, enter:
-e
directs mxcmp to generate a warning rather than an error if a table or class MAP
DEFINE in an SQL statement does not exist during explicit SQL/MX compilation.
To find errors in a program during explicit SQL/MX compilation, omit the -e option.
If you are using late name resolution and want to use a table or DEFINE that does
not exist during explicit SQL/MX compilation, include the -e option. Then at run
time, the SQL/MX executor automatically recompiles the SQL statement from the
statement’s source in the module by using the run-time version of the table.
-v
directs mxcmp to display summary information in addition to error and warning
messages for the compilation.
-g moduleGlobal
specifies that the module is placed globally in the
/usr/tandem/sqlmx/USERMODULES directory.
