RUN
The RUN command lets you run another process without exiting from Measure. The MEASCOM
RUN command is similar to the TACL RUN command.
Syntax
RUN [ / OUT out-file / ] run-file [ / options / ]
[ "parameters" ]
out-file
is an output file for any error messages generated by the RUN command.
run-file
is the program file to be run.
options
are run options. Commonly used run options include:
Specifies an input file for the process being run.IN filename
Specifies an output file for the process being run.OUT filename
Causes the MEASCOM prompt to return immediately after the RUN command
executes. If you do not use NOWAIT, Measure pauses until the run-file
process completes.
NOWAIT
Measure does not support all TACL run options. See Usage Notes.
"parameters"
is a parameter or a string of parameters to be passed to the newly created process. The
parameters must be enclosed in double quotation marks (" ").
Usage Notes
• For basic information about the RUN command and a complete description of its options, see
the TACL Reference Manual.
• If you specify a program name with no volume or subvolume (for example, RUN FUP), Measure
checks the current subvolume. If the file cannot be found or is not an object file, Measure
checks $SYSTEM.SYSTEM and $SYSTEM.SYSnn. If you specify a remote system (for example,
RUN \REMOTE.SURVCOM), Measure checks $SYSTEM.SYSTEM and $SYSTEM.SYSnn on
the remote system.
• Measure does not fully support certain TACL options:
Only the OFF and ON keywords for INSPECT and DEFMODE are supported.◦
◦ The RUN options HIGHPIN and EXTSWAP are not supported.
◦ The RUND command is not directly supported. To use DEBUG, enter:
RUN program-file / DEBUG /
Example
To run FUP INFO from the MEASCOM prompt:
