REPORT
To produce a schema report on the output device $S.#PRINTER, you can enter the
noninteractive command:
40> DDL/IN myschema/DICT, REPORT $S.#printer
You can generate the same report interactively:
41> DDL DICT
!?REPORT $S.#printer
!?SOURCE myschema
!EXIT
If any object is defined by reference to another object, the name of the referenced
object appears under the heading “Source Definition.”
You do not need the schema to produce a report. You can have the DDL compiler
generate the information from the open dictionary, as in Example 9-46 on page 9-93.
