Command List VIII
Commands PASCAL thru PURGEUSER
compiler options to the HP Pascal/iX compiler. HP Pascal/iX brackets the
quotedstring
with dollar signs ($) and places the string before the first
line of source code in the text file.
NOTE
The formal file designators used in this command (PASTEXT, PASLIB, and
PASLIST) cannot be backreferenced as actual file designators in the command
parameter list. For further information, refer to the "Implicit FILE
Commands for Subsystems" discussion of the FILE command.
Operation Notes
The PASXLLK command compiles and links an HP Pascal/iX program into a file on disk. If
you do not specify
textfile
, the compiler expects input from the standard input device. If
you do not specify
listfile
, the compiler sends the program listing output to the formal
file designator PASLIST (default $STDLIST).
The object file created during compilation is a system-defined temporary file, $NEWPASS,
which is passed directly to the Link Editor as $OLDPASS. Link Editor overwrites
progfile
and writes the linked program to $OLDPASS, if
progfile
is omitted, which can then be
executed.
NOTE
This command is implemented as a command file. If you set the HPPATH
variable to null (SETVAR HPPATH ""), the command file is not executed, and
the command fails.
Use
This command may be issued from a session, job, or program. It may not be used in
BREAK. Pressing
Break suspends the execution of this command. Entering the RESUME
command continues the execution.
Examples
The following example compiles and links an HP Pascal/iX program entered through your
standard input device and stores the linked program in the file $OLDPASS. The listing will
be printed on your standard list device.
PASXLLK
To compile and link an HP Pascal/iX source program from the source file SOURCE, store it in
PROG, and send the listing to your standard list device, enter:
PASXLLK SOURCE,PROG
