The modify Command
Syntax
modify <attr-spec> = <value-expr>
Parameters
• <attr-spec>: The <attr-spec> is an attribute specification. For more information on
specifying attributes, see “Attribute Specifications” (page 415).
• <value-expr>: The <value-expr> is a value expression. It can be a value specification,
an attribute specification, or an attribute function. For more information, see
“Attribute Specifications” (page 415), “Value Types” (page 423), and “Attribute
Functions” (page 417).
NOTE: The types of <attr-spec> and <value-expr> must be compatible. For more
information on compatibility, see “Type Compatibility” (page 425).
Operation
The modify command modifies <attr-spec> to obtain the value <value-expr>.
NOTE: If <attr-spec> refers to a tagged attribute (tag-int or tag-str) and <value-spec> is
a tagged value, the tag of <attr-spec> is not modified. The value of the <attr-spec>
parameter is only modified.
