PASCALPREP
initial compiler options to a program. Pascal/V brackets the quotedstring
with dollar signs and places it before the first line of source code in the text
file.
Operation Notes
The PASCALPREP command compiles and prepares a compatibility mode Pascal/V program
into a program file on disk. If you do not specify textfile, MPE/iX expects input from the
current input device. If you do not specify listfile, MPE/iX sends the listing output to the
formal file designator PASLIST (default $STDLIST). The USL file $OLDPASS, created
during compilation, is a temporary file passed directly to the MPE segmenter. You may
access it only if you do not use the default for progfile. This is because the MPE segmenter
also uses $OLDPASS to store the prepared program segments, overwriting any existing
temporary file of the same name.
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 prepares a Pascal/V program entered through your
standard input device, and stores the prepared program segments in the file $OLDPASS.
The listing is printed on your standard list device.
PASCALPREP
To compile and prepare a Pascal/V source program from the source file PASCSRC, store it in
