Service Routines
To help with the development of USCODE routines, the following service routines are
supported by TSCODE:
•
Utility procedures
•
Pseudo Guardian, NonStop TS/MP, Pathway/TS, and TMF procedures
By calling one of these routines a user task transfers control to the TSCODE kernel.
TSCODE either carries out the requested processing internally, or passes the procedure
call to the operating system, Pathway/TS, or TMF. When TSCODE subsequently wakes
up the task to resume execution, control is returned to the task at the instruction
immediately following the procedure call.
Utility Procedures
A list of the utility procedures follows. A bracketed X at the end of or in the middle of a
procedure name indicates that both local-memory and extended-memory procedures are
available. For example, DELETE^[X]ITEM means that the DELETE^ITEM and
DELETE^XITEM procedures are available. The procedures are grouped by function,
bit map control, break handling, and so on, after the list.
