Compile
Enter Y or N:
Y To compile the source code file. This is the default value.
N To generate a source code file, but not compile it yet.
No C object code is produced after the server source code is generated.
Listing Device
To generate a listing of the compiler output, enter the name of a disk file, the spooler
collector process, or a printer in this optional field. If you specify a disk file, it must
exist and be in an unstructured format.
If you entered N in the Compile field, leave this field blank.
If you leave this field blank and there are compilation errors, the Pathmaker product
creates a temporary file to contain the errors. The name for the temporary file is:
ZZPML nnn
where nnn is a 3-digit number. To correct the errors, edit the custom source file for the
service. The ZZPML file is not deleted automatically: when you are finished with it,
you must delete it manually.
Compiler Directives
Enter any compiler directives to be included in the service program, such as SYMBOLS
or INSPECT.
The Pathmaker program does not semantically check the compiler directive that you
enter, so you need to ensure that it is correct. If the compiler directives are invalid,
you might get compilation errors when you compile the service.
Rules for entering compiler directives:
If you specify two or more directives, separate them with semicolons (;).
For C services, you do not need to precede the compiler directive with a question
mark (?).
You can enter all blanks into this field if you do not want any compiler directives
to be added to the C source file.
Successfully Generated At
Displays the date and time the service was last successfully generated. An
unsuccessful attempt to generate the service does not change the value of this field.
You cannot enter data into this field.
