Syntax Conventions for Name Lists as Command
Elements
Name lists can include one or more code or data blocks. A code block is a C function,
a COBOL85 program unit, a FORTRAN program or subprogram, a Pascal routine, or a
TAL PROC. A data block is defined differently for each language. For information about
data blocks and data block names, see Section 4, Object File Structure
.
Because name lists can also include ranges of names within lists, you can specify
ranges of blocks or entry points; for example, the ADD, DELETE, and REPLACE
commands allow this usage.
Name ranges can apply to input object files. If so, the range is the span of blocks or
entry points between the first name and the second name. You must give the names in
the order of their location in the file.
You can also specify ranges of names, such as on include lists; for example, the
ALTER, INFO, and MOVE commands allow this usage. The range is determined by the
order in which the names appear on the include list. You can use the INFO command
to display these lists.
