Performing a Trial
Compilation of an NCL
Procedure
Edit Services provides a facility for performing a trial compilation of an NCL source
file.
Although you can create a source file in any library, the file must be in one of the
following libraries for the trial compilation:
1. User procedure library assigned to you in the NCL Library Subvol field in your
user ID definition record
2. Customized procedure library defined in PARAM NCLCUSTSRC
3. Distribution procedure library defined in PARAM NCLDISTSRC
Edit Services always searches for the source file in the above libraries in the order
given above, regardless of which file you actually select for trial compilation (the
specified subvolume is irrelevant). For example, if two files of the same name exist in
both your user procedure library and the customized procedure library, and you select
the file in the latter for a trial compilation, Edit Services compiles the file in your user
procedure library instead.
To perform a trial compilation on an NCL source file, position your cursor to the left of
the name of the NCL procedure you want to check, type C, and press the ENTER key.
If the compilation is successful, the following message appears in the message line:
*END* 0 ERRORS 0 WARNINGS
If the compilation is not successful, the number of errors or warnings appears in the
message line. For example:
*END* 9 ERRORS 0 WARNINGS
Checking the Results if
There Are Errors or
Warnings
To examine the error list created by an unsuccessful test compilation, press the F11
(PF11) function key.
Only the first 60 lines of diagnostics are displayed.
