DDL Definitions for DSNM Character String
Components
Subsystems and object types in DSNM commands, responses, and configuration are
represented by character strings. In TAL, the representation of a character-string type
item has the following form:
LITERAL zdsn^max^item = length-of-item-in-bytes;
STRUCT zdsn^ddl^item^def;
BEGIN
STRING z^c[0:zdsn^max^item-1];
INT z^i = z^c;
END;
All character-string type items are defined this way: a constant (with the item's length in
bytes) and a uniform structure that allows it to be referred to as a structure, a string, or
an INT.
The major character-string items of interest are described by the following DDL items:
DSNM Configuration Items
Note. If one of these items is embedded in another structure, care must be taken to ensure
that the structure begins on a word boundary.
