DICTODF (Object Definition File)
DICTODF (Object Definition File) is a key-sequenced file that contains one record for 
each object in the dictionary.
DICTODF is an important entry point into the dictionary. Given an object name and 
object type, DICTODF provides the object number. Given an object number, DICTODF 
provides the object type and name.
DICTODF is different on G-series and H-series systems—see:
•
Figure D-11, DICTODF (Object Definition File)—G-Series, on page D-37
•
Figure D-12, DICTODF (Object Definition File)—H-Series, on page D-39
Change bars in Figure D-12 on page D-39 show where it differs from Figure D-11 on 
page D-37.
These tables apply to both G-series and H-series systems:
