% Percent Sign. A percent sign precedes a number that is not in decimal notation. The

%þnotation precedes an octal number. The %Bþnotation precedes a binary number.

The %Hþnotation precedes a hexadecimal number. For example:

Notation for Management Programming Interfaces

UPPERCASE LETTERS. Uppercase letters indicate names from definition files; enter these

names exactly as shown. For example:

ZCOM-TKN-SUBJ-SERV

lowercase letters. Words in lowercase letters are words that are part of the notation,

including Data Definition Language (DDL) keywords. For example:

token-type

!r. The !r notation following a token or field name indicates that the token or field is

required. For example:

ZCOM-TKN-OBJNAME token-type ZSPI-TYP-STRING. !r

!o. The !o notation following a token or field name indicates that the token or field is

optional. For example:

ZSPI-TKN-MANAGER token-type ZSPI-TYP-FNAME32. !o

Change Bar Notation

Change bars are used to indicate substantive differences between this edition of the

manual and the preceding edition. Change bars are vertical rules placed in the right

margin of changed portions of text, figures, tables, examples, and so on. Change bars

highlight new or revised information. For example:

The message types specified in the REPORT clause are different in the COBOL85

environment and the Common Run-Time Environment (CRE).

The CRE has many new message types and some new message type codes for

old message types. In the CRE, the message type SYSTEM includes all

messages except LOGICAL-CLOSE and LOGICAL-OPEN.
